The primary purpose of the University is to educate and train young people for rewarding careers and lives of meaning. We: REGARD STUDENTS as mature, responsible individuals en­ gaged in the processes of self gov­ ernment which are essential in a democratic society. TEACH INDIVIDUALS, not groups; with a close-working rela­ tionship between instructors and students. Each student has a faculty advisor and may also consult the counseling service. :ducate students for ’ell-rounded lives; not only intellec­ tual competence, but physical, social, and cultural development. The pro­ gram of general education includes courses such as recreational activities, natural sciences, social sciences, English language and literature, and Athletic events, the humanities, clubs, dramatic and cultural presenta­ tions, and student self-government organizations offer a wide variety of co-curricular activities. TEACH FUNDAMENTALS and their application. In modem society knowledge increases so rap­ idly that specific facts may become obsolete even before they are widely learned. Close attention to funda­ mentals is necessary. The University attempts to inculcate habits of learn­ ing, thinking and doing which, thoughtfully modified, will endure for a lifetime. ENCOURAGE INITIATIVE, self criticism, and intellectual curios­ ity, leam by doing. Education in fundamental knowledge should be supplemented by laboratory and field work in order that university prepa­ ration closely resembles conditions in professional careers. Students should develop lifelong intellectual curiosity and discovery, become constructive critics of themselves and of society, and leam to prize creative, original thinking. IN RETROSPECT HISTORIC: Lake Superior State University is a hilltop campus, situat­ ed on the historic site of Fort Brady, a U.S. Army post dating back to 1822. The campus overlooks the St. Mary’s River and the famous Soo Locks. After the fort was deactivat­ ed in 1944, the property was acquired by Michigan Technological University to establish a branch. Thus, the campus is a blend of his­ toric and modem architecture. The University was accorded four-year status by the State Board of Educa­ tion in 1966, and authorized to grant baccalaureate degrees. THE UNIVERSITY 4 �WE ARE The first baccalaureate class graduat­ ed in 1967. Autonomy, separating the University from Michigan Tech­ nological University, was granted January 1, 1970. On November 4, 1987, Governor James Blanchard signed legislation changing Lake Superior State from College to Uni­ versity. CAMPUS RESIDENCE facili­ ties include two conventional halls, a Student Village with eight-man and eight-woman apartments, townhouses, a mobile home park, small group housing and several apartment buildings. Canusa Hall provides food service facilities. The Walker Cisler Center offers recreational facilities as well as a snack bar, student offices, and meeting rooms. The James Norris Physical Education Center provides ample opportunity for a variety of recreational activi­ ties, intramurals, courses and inter­ collegiate athletics. The Center for Applied Sciences and Engineering Technology offers students the latest in modem technological resources. A seasoned faculty and high academ­ ic standards have earned Lake Supe­ rior State University a reputation for an enriched education in such areas as liberal arts, engineering technol­ ogy, business administration, social sciences, biological sciences and their allied fields. The need to provide continuing education for adults has not been overlooked. The University offers evening courses as well as confer­ ences and cultural programs. Enroll- ment of part-time students in day classes is encouraged. Students find the close relationship between faculty and the student body is extremely valuable in the first years of university work. No one is "lost in the crowd" here. THE CAMPUS ENVIRONMENT: The campus provides a true university environ­ ment, with its own classroom and laboratory buildings, residence halls, library, auditorium, gymnasium, food services, and health center. It con­ sists of 121 acres of spacious, wood­ ed campus on the western heights of Sault Ste. Marie overlooking the St. Mary’s River, Lake Superior and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. Students find that the city of Sault Ste. Marie and its environs offer much of value to enhance their edu­ Sault Ste. cational experiences. Marie is one of the oldest cities in the United States. It was a fur trad­ ing center as early as the second quarter of the seventeenth century. In 1641, a Jesuit mission was estab­ lished here, and 27 years later Father Marquette founded at the Sault the first permanent settlement within the limits of Michigan. The Sault cele­ brated its 300th birthday in 1968. ACCREDITATION: How does this university rank with other educa­ tional institutions scholastically? Accreditation means the curricula, faculty, equipment, laboratories, and library of an institution have been THE UNIVERSITY 5 �inspected and approved. Lake Supe­ rior State University is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Fourth year instruction in medical technology is in hospitals approved by the Council on Medical Education and Hospitals of the American Medi­ cal Association. Engineering Technology associate degree programs accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc. include: com­ puter; drafting and design; electrical and mechanical engineering technol­ ogy. The Board has also accredited four-year programs in electrical, mechanical and automated systems engineering technology. The nursing program is accredited by the National League for Nursing. WELCOME to Lake Superior State University. I look forward to personally meeting you during your time at the University. This Catalog is intended to be your guide through your academic and student life at Lake Superior State University. It is given to you with the expectation that it will become a part of your personal library along with your dictionary, thesaurus, and any other reference books you need at your fingertips. While I do not necessarily commend it to you for a first-time cover-to-cover reading, I do urge you to read the first third of the book before moving to those sections devoted to specific disciplines and degrees. As in every other field of endeavor, it is essential that as a student at Lake Superior State University you know the academic rules by which we are expected to play. This book will help you with these and assist you in formulating questions if in your review particular areas are not adequately explained. While many students come to the University with a firm choice of a specific career field, others are not so certain. The literature shows that, once enrolled in higher education, the majority of those pursuing a degree change their minds about their academic major. This is healthy. Education is discovery. What you thought was the right choice for you in high school may take a distant second to something you find in a general education course or elective at the University. In this situation, the Catalog becomes a re-starting point, and now you will have faculty and staff whom you know to call on for advice. When your experience at LSSU is twenty years in the distance, I hope it will be fun to pull this book from the closet, dust it off, and reflect on interesting courses and faculty and, I hope, some very good times. This is a multi-purpose book; one that can continue to work for and with you. Keep it and use it wisely. Dr. H.

NOTES EQUAL OPPORTUNITY 13 �ACADEMIC The Academic Policies and regulations of Lake Superior State University which are intended to guide students through an orderly and successful pursuit of their academic goals, describe the necessary actions and procedures for which students are responsible. They outline the students’ expectations and rights while enrolled as a university student. Advisors, department heads and personnel of university offices will help students to understand these policies and regulations; however, it is each student’s individual responsibility to comply with them. THE ACADEMIC YEAR Lake Superior State University is on a semester system. (Previous to Fall Semester 1991 it was on a quarter system.) The academic year consists if a Fall Semester (late August \rough December) and a Spring ;mester (January through April or Fall and Spring irly May), jemesters consist of fifteen weeks of instruction followed by a week for During the final examinations. Summer Semester (May through early August) most courses are conducted during an eight week period which includes two days for final examinations. Specific dates for each semester are found in the University Calendar located elsewhere in this book. ACADEMIC CREDIT In a lecture/recitation type course students receive one credit for each fifteen hours of classroom instruction. (For example, a threecredit course of this type might be scheduled 9:00 to 9:50 AM Monday, Wednesday and Friday. An "hour" period is usually only 50 minutes long, with ten minutes allowed for students to move from class to class.) Courses including laboratory, field work or other non-lecture formats may be scheduled for more than one hour per week per credit. In general, one credit requires an average of three hours of the student’s time per In week for the semester, lecture/recitation courses this would normally be accomplished with one hour of classroom attendance and two hours of preparation or study. An average student credit load per semester is sixteen credits. One hundred twenty four credits is the minimum number required for a Some baccalaureate degree, programs require more than this minimum. CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS Students are assigned to one of four class levels as follows: 0 to 25 credits = Freshman; 26 to 55 credits = Sophomore; 56 to 87 = Junior; 88+ = Senior. ACADEMIC POLICIES 14 �POLICIES STUDENT CURRICULUM CHOICE AND ADVISING Students are encouraged to select a major program upon admission to the University, The academic department offering the chosen program is called the "major department". The department head of the major department assigns an academic advisor to each of the students. An advisor assists students in course selection each semester, in understanding program and university requirements and regulations, in evaluating academic progress, and in other matters related to successful academic achievement. Lake Superior Slate University is firmly committed to providing students personalized advising and support. Students are encouraged to actively seek help from their instructors, advisors, department head, Counseling Center, and any other faculty, staff or office which they believe might be of assistance. The Counseling Center provides academic tutoring as does the Native American Center and academic departments. These services are usually provided without charge to enrolled students, Additional information concerning advising services is listed under testing and counseling service in this catalog. Students who are undecided about their choice of a major program are classified as majoring in Liberal Arts, an associate degree program, and assigned a provisional academic advisor until another major is chosen. Students may change their major curriculum by processing a Curriculum Change Card through the Registrar’s Office. The Registrar’s Office, Counseling Center and departmental offices can provide students with the card and instructions for processing it. Curriculum Change cards must be filed with the Registrar’s Office each time a curriculum change is made so that advisor materials, grade reports and graduation information will be sent to the correct department and advisor. Students will be assigned < new advisor when a cumculun change is made. Students maj request a change of advisor by asking their major department head to make such change. SEMESTER COURSE SELECTION Each semester the Scheduling Office publishes a Course Schedule listing all courses offered during the semester along with related information such as days and hour of course offering, instructor and the final examination time. This booklet is available several weeks before the semester begins and contains timely and important information for students. Students are responsible for reading each semester’s Course Schedule and adhering to its instructions. Course Schedules and ACADEMIC POLICIES 15 �scheduling materials are available from all departmental offices and the Scheduling Office. After academic advising, students schedule courses by submitting required materials to the Scheduling Office according to the time schedule described in the Course Schedule. After scheduling courses, students have a limited period of time to pay tuition and related fees. At the end of this period deregistration occurs. Deregistration means that students’ registration in all classes is canceled. Students who are deregistered will usually find fewer available classes from which to choose when rescheduling. Several factors assist or limit student course selections. Placement examinations for mathematics and English are administered by the Counseling and Testing Center located in Brown Hall. These xaminations are required of all tudents before they schedule their irst courses in mathematics or English. MAXIMUM STUDENT CREDIT LOAD is twenty credits per semester, with the exception that students having a 3.00 cumulative grade point average may take additional credit with written approval of their major department head. Students on academic probation should not take more than fifteen credits per semester. PREREQUISITES. Students must satisfy prerequisites, and any other stated conditions before enrolling in a course or have permission from an instructor to waive the prerequisites. Enrollment in a course may be revoked (with an N grade) if it is found during the regular drop period that the proper prerequisites have not been met. Responsibility rests with students to be certain that they have the approved prerequisites. Permission to take any course out of sequence is seldom granted even to exceptional students, since electing a course for which one is not prepared imposes an additional burden not reflected in the total number of credits being carried. Students must earn passing grades in a prerequisite course before taking the next course in sequence. For some courses a C (2.00) grade or better is required. Exceptions may be made only by department heads or the course instructor. Students who receive a D grade in a prerequisite course or a course in the major are strongly advised (and may be required) to repeat the course, and raise the D, before continuing. REPEATS. Students may not repeat a course by enrollment or examination if they have passed a course for which the repeated course is a prerequisite. Exceptions may be granted by the department head with the concurrence of the Registrar. CHANGES IN COURSE SCHEDULE. A period of time is provided at the beginning of each semester for students to add or delete courses or reschedule all classes after having been deregistered. Courses deleted during this period will not appear on a student’s permanent record (transcript). The add/delete period for a full semester course begins on the first day of the semester, and ends on the sixth university business day. For courses which span less than a full semester, a shorter add/delete period may be established. During the add/delete period schedule changes are initiated at departmental offices which ACADEMIC POLICIES 16 �maintain current records of class availability. In some cases faculty permission will be required for Detailed course changes, information on adding or deleting classes is provided to students in the Course Schedule booklet each semester. A STUDENT’S ADD OR WITHDRAWAL FROM A COURSE IS NOT OFFICIALLY COMPLETED UNLESS THE APPROPRIATE FORM IS FILED WITH THE SCHEDULING OFFICE. Students are advised to retain the official receipt they are given upon completion of an add or drop procedure. LATE ADDS. Students request­ ing to add courses after the end of the add/delete period must obtain permission and a special form for this purpose from the Registrar’s Office, obtain the written approval of the instructor, and then return the form to the Registrar’s Office. A service charge will be charged for this procedure. Students are responsible for all class work missed previous to adding a class. instructional period.) A student’s record shall indicate an N grade for each course officially dropped during this period. Forms for the procedure are available in departmental, Scheduling and Registrar’s Offices.

Proper clearance of University obligations assures that students can later receive transfer of credits. with a hold on their Students transcript will not receive a transcript of credits until clearance is complete. THE GRADING SYSTEM ;rade point average (GPA). To compute the grade point average for a semester, divide the total points earned by the total credits carried. Credits carried include those failed or earned but not credits for Credit/No Credit courses. To figure the cumulative grade point average divide the total points earned by the total credits carried in all semesters. When a course is repeated, count only the credits carried and the points of the last grade earned. Thus, successfully repeating courses in which students initially earned a D or F is an effective way for them to improve their cumulative GPA. A cumulative grade point average of 2.00 for all credits carried is required for graduation. Further, the student must compile a 2.00 grade point GRADES AND GRADE POINTS Grades awarded are: Grade A - Excellent B - Good C - Average D - Inferior F - Failure I - Incomplete N - No Grade Z - Deferred CR - Credit NCR- No Credit Grade Points per Credit 4 3 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 average for all departmental courses required in the student’s major and minor(s). Incomplete grades (I): An incomplete grade is given only when students, because of circumstances beyond their control, are unable to complete a segment of the course. It must be made up by the date specified by the instructor which must be within a maximum of two semesters in residence, or else the incomplete grade becomes a failure. Summer semesters are not counted unless -a student is enrolled for classes during the summer. Deferred grades (Z): Deferred grades are given in those special courses where work is planned to extend beyond a single semester. GRADE REPORTS. Reports concerning grades and credits are sent to each student after each semester. These reports are mailed to home addresses. DEAN’S LIST. Students who complete twelve or more credits in a semester with a grade point average of 3.50 or higher will be placed on the dean’s list for that semester, acknowledging their outstanding achievement. ACADEMIC POLICIES 18 �ACADEMIC PROBATION Students at Lake Superior State University enjoy a considerable degree of self-determination; they decide for themselves when and how long to work on each assignment. The best way to succeed in this task is to work out a weekly schedule with two hours of study time earmarked as preparation for each one-hour class. (In a few cases, the instructor may suggest some other division of time.) Most students are able to maintain good work in all their courses. A few fall short of satisfactory performance. For them, a system of academic probation is used. Academic probation is considered a warning to students that their scholastic performance is below the University’s minimum requirements. During this period, students should determine for themselves whether to continue their programs as planned. No student while on probation shall carry more than 15 credits per semester exclusive of band and recreational activities. The Executive Vice-president, in consultation with the student’s advisor, may impose restrictions on the student’s extra-curricular activities. It is the responsibility of students to familiarize themselves with all academic regulations including those relating to probation, and to keep informed as to their academic standing. The rules governing academic probation, dismissal, and reinstatement follow. 1. Students will be on academic probation if their cumulative grade point average is in the "on probation" category. 2. Students whose cumulative grade point average at the conclusion of a semester falls into the dismissal range of the academic standing table will be dismissed. 3. After a first or second dismissal a student has the following options: a. Allow two semesters (summer may be counted for one semester) to elapse before re-enrollment or b. Petition the Scholastic Standards Committee for immediate readmittance. This action is initiated with the Registrar. The Committee can permit early readmittance with specific conditions required of the student or deny the student’s request. Subsequent to the Committee’s denial th' student can further appeal t the Vice President fc Academic Affairs, whose decision is final. 4. Students who continue after a dismissal will be dismissed again after any semester in which their cumulative grade point average falls in the dismissal category. The Registrar may allow the student to continue "on probation" with the record showing "on probation" instead of "dismissal", if the student’s record has shown improvement during the semester and student has a 2.00 grade point average in courses carried for that semester. 5. Students dismissed a third time will not be reinstated without the permission of the Vice President for Academic Affairs, Three semesters must elapse from the time of dismissal before the ACADEMIC POLICIES 19 �Academic Standing Table Full and Part-time Students Academic Probation and Dismissal Policy Cumulative Semester Credits Carried at LSSU 1 - 18 19 - 25 26 - 40 41 - 55 56-72 73-87 88 + Minimum for Good Standing 1.81 * Cumulative Grade Point Average On Probation less than 1.81 1.81 1.86 1.91 1.93 1.95 1.97 ** 1.41 - 1.80 1.51 - 1.85 1.61 - 1.90 1.71 - 1.92 1.81 - 1.94 1.91 - 1.96 Dismissal Not subject to Dismissal 1.40 or less 1.50 or less 1.60 or less 1.70 or less 1.80 or less 1.90 or less ♦Students will not be dismissed for academic deficiencies until they have enrolled in at least 19 semester credits at Lake Superior State University. ♦*A cumulative grade point average of 2.00 for all credits carried at Lake Superior State University, and a cumulative grade point average of 2.00 for all courses required in the student's major and minor is necessary for graduation. CREDIT/NO CREDIT COURSES NCR is given. To be eligible for this option students must be in good academic standing, not on academic probation. Only one such course per semester is permitted and no more than twelve semester credits in such courses may be presented toward a student’s degree requirements. Additionally, this credit/no credit option may not be selected in courses which satisfy major, minor or general education requirements. Students must apply at the Registrar’s Office during the six-day add period if they want to enroll in a graded course under the credit/no credit policy. This option may not be changed after the six-day add period. Academic performance at the level of 2.00 or higher is required for the credit, CR, grade. Instructors are not advised of a student’s option to be graded credit/no credit. To encourage intellectual explor­ ation, students may enroll in some courses on a credit/no credit basis for which either a grade of CR or Certain courses are always offered with a credit/no credit grading Such courses have this format. information in their official course student may petition for readmittance. Summer may be counted for one semester. 5. The Scholastic Standards Committee may, on the recommendation of a department head require students to withdraw from any course or courses in which their preparation, progress, effort or conduct is deemed unsatisfactory and may on the recommendation of the Vice President of Academic Affairs and/or Executive Vice President dismiss students from the University if their background, overall academic accomplishment, conduct or attitude toward their work is deemed unsatisfactory.

Applications for admission are processed continuously and students are notified as quickly as A final transcript of possible. courses completed during the final year must be submitted to the Admissions Office promptly after completion of the school year. An official score report from American College Testing (ACT) must also be submitted prior to class registration. Prospective freshmen who have already graduated from high school, but have not attended any college or university, must have an official transcript sent directly from their high school to the Admissions Office. The transcript must include all courses taken, starting with grade nine, and graduation certification. Admitted applicants who graduated from high school fewer than 28 months prior to the date they wish to enter the University must submit their scores from American College Testing (ACT) prior to registering for classes. Individuals who apply during their final year of high school are considered for admission according to the following guidelines. The primary factor in evaluating an application for admission is the individual’s grade point average in academic subjects only. The grade point average for each applicant is recalculated, starting with grade nine, and includes only academic courses such as English, biology, chemistry, physics, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, senior math, social studies, and foreign languages. Seventy-five percent of the freshmen entering LSSU have an overall high school grade point average of 2.56 or higher. The top 25 percent of the entering freshmen have an overall high school grade point average of 3.28 or higher. Secondary factors which may also influence the admissions decision are the number of academic courses an applicant has completed, the trend from year to year of the applicant’s grades, class rank, and recommen-dations. ACT scores are rarely a factor in the admissions decision. All credentials should be submitt' to the Admissions Office at lea. three weeks before the intendeo semester of entry. However, if all available spaces become filled processing of applications will end at an earlier date. To qualify for admission as freshmen, applicants are expected to be graduates of accredited secondary schools.

If a list of the Ontario secondary school OAC, "A" and "G" level courses included in this academic subjects average is not available at your guidance office, one may be obtained by writing the Dean of Admissions at Lake Superior State University. The Admissions Office uses two grading scales when evaluating an Ontario secondary school applicant, since "A" level courses are considered more demanding and cheir content more appropriate preparation for university-level courses than are "G" level courses. "B" level courses are never included in the recalculated academic grade point average. Secondary factors which may also influence the admissions decision are the number of academic courses an applicant has completed, the trend from year to year of the applicant’s grades, and recommendations. Beginning with students seeking admission for August 1992, a report of ACT scores will be required from all Ontario secondary school students. ACT scores are used for counseling and placement purposes, rather than as a factor in the admissions decision.

It is named after a man who visited the campus one summer day in 1973 while back in his home town for a few days"to arrange for some scholarships." He set up a $25,000 fund to be paid in at $5,000 a year for five years. Upon his death in 1979 the University learned that he had left the bulk of his estate to expand this scholarship fund to almost more than a quarter of a million dollars. AN IMPORTANT PHASE of college life consists of development in "human relations."

RETAINING AID (SATISFACTORY PROGRESS POLICY) A POLICY of great importance to students receiving financial aid defines the rate of academic progress and success which must be met if financial aid is to be retained. If you are receiving any form of financial aid, please study the following section carefully: Financial aid regulations require satisfactory progress for students to remain eligible for financial aid. Programs affected by this policy are: Pell Grant, Perkins Student Loan, College Work-Study, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, the Stafford Student Loan Programs, Board of Regents Scholarships, Board of Regents Grant, Michigan Competitive Scholarship, and all other institutional scholarships and grants. The following is the minimum requirement for all types of financial aid; however, there are some types of aid, such as scholarships, with more stringent requirements: EVERY STUDENT must maintain, at the end of each semester, a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least: Credits Cumulative Attempted GPA 0-25 1.70 as a freshman 26-55 1.86 as a sophomore 56-87 1.93 as a junior 88+ 1.97 as a senior APPLICATION OF POLICY Freshman students not meeting the GPA requirement after Fall semester will be placed on Financial Aid Probation for one semester. The cumulative GPA after the probationary semester must satisfy the minimum GPA or the student will have their financial aid suspended. Students classified as a sophomore or higher will not have a probationary semester and must meet the schedule above. In addition, each student must have earned the following number of credits at the end of each semester in FINANCIAL AIDS 60 �attendance in order to remain eligible for financial aid: Full-Time Semester 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Credits Earned Full-Time Semester 8 16 8 9 25 34 43 10 52 61 11 12 13 14 15+ Credits Earned 70 79 88 97 106 115 124 ineligible Students enrolled for less than 6 credits do not have a term/semester added and those enrolled for 6 to 11 credits count as one-half semester. Students are reviewed annually (at the completion of Winter Semester) in regards to credits completed. Students who do not meet the completion schedule are considered as not making satisfactory progress and their financial aid is suspended for subsequent semesters. Once financial aid is suspended, both the GPA and credit completion criteria must be met in subsequent semesters before reinstatement of aid is possible. If completion of "I" grades or other record changes warrant a reinstatement, a written notice from the Registrar’s Office must be presented to the Financial Aid Office by the end of the semester following suspension of aid. Summer school attendance may be used by the student to remove grade point or credit earned deficiencies. Students must file a request for reinstatement with the Financial Aid Office following the successful completion of a summer term. FINANCIAL AID SUSPENSION No aid, including but not limited to the Stafford Student Loan, Perkins Student Loan, College Work-Study, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, Pell Grant, Michigan Competitive Scholarship, and Institutional Scholarships and Grants, will be granted once a student’s eligibility is suspended. To remove financial aid suspension status, a student must have attained the minimum cumulative grade point average and credit earned requirements while not receiving financial aid processed through the University. Successful students then must advise the Financial Aid Office in writing that they meet the requirements for reinstatement.

PELL Grants FOR MOST students, Federal student aid begins with PELL Grants, which provide a foundation of financial assistance to which other forms of aid may be added. A FINANCIAL AIDS • 73 �distinguishing feature of this program is its central concept of "entitlement," which guarantees that students who demonstrate need will receive a grant based on that need and on the cost of education at the post-secondary school they choose to attend. PELL Grants for the award period (July l, 1991 to June 30, 1992) will range up to $2,400 as determined by a standard formula.

Although most students are paid their awards through the school, the U.S. Dept, of Education determines their eligibility. The University financial aid office uses a standard procedure established by the Dept, of Education to calculate the amount of the award. STUDENT eligibility is determined on the basis of a formula developed annually by the Dept, of Education and reviewed by Congress. This formula is applied consistently to all applicants and takes into account indicators of financial strength such as income, assets, family size. The formula uses the information provided on the application to produce eligibility index numbers. These numbers are not dollar figures, but are used, along with the cost of student education, to determine the actual amount of grants. TO APPLY, applicants must complete Financial Aid Forms (FAF) or Family Financial Statements (FFS) or Application for Federal Student Aid (AFSA) and forward them to the processor listed on the form. Forms are available at high schools, colleges, and financial aid offices. THE BOARD OF REGENTS GRANT Program provides financial assistance to both incoming students and currently enrolled students based upon financial need. Preference for the grant is given to those whose financial need is greater than onehalf the cost of education. Recipients must be Michigan residents enrolled full-time.

Financial need is the primary consideration in the selection of grant recipients. Priority is given to Pell Grant recipients. Academically, it is only necessary to gain admission to the University in order to be eligible for the grant. Recipients are selected from among those applying for all forms of financial aid. TUITION INCENTIVE PROGRAM (TIP): The TIP Program is a State of Michigan program that pays tuition and fees for students of lower-income families.

Two related arts are our special concern: one is that of teaching, the other that of communicating with the larger public beyond these walls. Both require a concern for the truthful and accurate use of language - for truth, indeed, rather than indifferent "information." Both require an exercise of feeling and imagination as much as of thought. Both are concerned to discover and encourage whatever creative aptitudes may be latent in eacl student. Our aim is knowledge, not pedantry; our prime responsibility is to foster the free mind, the exploring spirit -and to insure them every reasonable liberty of expression. Since it is the purpose of many studies to remind us that we are neither apes, nor ants, such a purpose may be better served in a small community, such as ours, avowedly dedicated to the pursuit of a liberal education, than in some large institutions whose very size prohibits individual attention or concern. A four-year curriculum leads to the bachelor of arts degree in English Language and literature or to the bachelor of arts or bachelor of A science degree in history, suggested curriculum is outlined; however, students should plan individual programs of study in consultation either with assigned advisers, or with department head. Electives are available throughout the University; in liberal arts these include not only additional courses in English and history or sequences in the modem foreign languages, but also in speech, journalism, drama, music, art, and philosophy. Leading authorities recognize that a sound liberal arts education is often the most satisfactory preparation for successful training and accomplishment in many vocational and professional areas, Upon completion of their degree program, students will be prepared either to pursue career in fields such as communications, industry, and ARTS & LETTERS 93 �government, or to embark upon graduate studies which will qualify them for professions in fields such as teaching. graduates of accredited secondary schools with above average standing in their classes. Secondary school preparation should include a fouryear curriculum of at least 15 units of acceptable entrance credits. Three units of English are required. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS.

BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES prepare students for careers in research and in applied aspects of life sciences as well as providing a background in biology for a career or further studies in allied sciences. Four-year programs lead to bachelor of science degrees in biological sciences, fisheries and wildlife management, environmental science and medical technology; bachelor of arts degree in biology; and two associate degrees: natural resources technology and water quality technology. Students electing to pursue four-year degree programs have the opportunity of changing their majors to one of the other biology degree programs without losing credits or having to make up deficiencies. Students working toward these four-year degree programs have the same basic first year of courses. BACHELOR OF ARTS/SCIENCE Biology Lake Superior State University is ideally located for field studies of terrestrial and aquatic resources. Students electing a variety of courses in ecology and applied ecology can qualify for state and federal positions in fisheries biology, wildlife biology, and other related fields. Laboratory courses give students knowledge and techniques necessary for many technical positions with industry and governmental agencies. and numerous other fields can receive a strong undergraduate background at Lake Superior State University that will enable them to pursue a career or graduate education elsewhere. Admission requirements for professional and graduate universities vary throughout the United States and Canada. Students planning post-baccalaureate education should plan with their advisor to insure that these requirements are met. Students interested in research positions in environmental science, marine biology, microbiology, physiology, fish and wildlife biology ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS: To qualify for admission as freshmen, applicants must be BIOLOGY & CHEMISTRY 99 �graduates of accepted secondary schools with above average standing in their class. Their secondary school preparation should include a four-year curriculum of at least 15 units of acceptable entrance credits. The following subjects must be included in these credits: one unit of beginning algebra, one unit of advanced algebra, one unit of chemistry and three units of English. In addition, one biology unit and one unit of geometry or trigonometry are highly recommended. Students not meeting these requirements may enter on a provisional basis. Ontario Grade 13 students are required to take departmental competency examinations before credit will be granted in biology and chemistry. Substitution for courses required as part of biology degree requirements must be approved by the department head. Honors Program This program is a research sequence open to biology, chemistry and environmental science majors with a minimum overall GPA of 3.5 through the first semester of the junior year. Majors electing this sequence will select an instructor as their supervisor. An undergraduate research project will be outlined in consultation with the supervising instructor and submitted to the department for approval. The outline must be approved before the first term of the senior year. At the end of the seventh week of the spring term during the senior year, the students will forward an abstract of their work to the department head and during the tenth week of the same semester will submit the final copy of their research papers in publishable form, for departmental approval. All grades for this sequence will be deferred until the final semester. Eight credit hours of honors credit will be substituted for 8 hours of electives upon successful completion of the research sequence. The special problem sequence will not be open to students electing the honors program research sequence. The completed research may be used for Senior Thesis. Special Problems In biology, chemistry, environmental science: Students desiring to enroll in BL, CH, EV Special Problem courses will be granted permission to take the course(s) provided the following conditions are in existence at the time of petition: (A) junior or senior standing; (B) With overall GPA of at least 2.5; (C) No I grades on transcript. Students meeting these requirements must petition depart­ ment faculty with a detailed onepage outline of work and date to be completed. Request for more than four hours will result in a propor­ tionate reduction in an 18-hour load; e.g. with BL400 for six credits, the balance of courses must not exceed 12 credits for the term. The faculty preceptor must endorse the petition with his signature and the date the project is to be completed.

Pre-professional: Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Medicine Applicants to a professional school are seldom accepted with only three years of undergraduate credit, therefore, pre-medical, pre-veterinary medicine or pre-dental students are encouraged to remain four years and complete the requirements for the bachelor of science or bachelor of arts degree in biological sciences. A survey of medical school admission requirements for the United States and Canada as published by the Association of American Medical Colleges shows that the Lake Superior State University bachelor of science degree in biological sciences meets the most stringent requirements. representatives from the biology and chemistry department including two professional advisors, will: 1. review the performance of all students indicating an interest in medicine, veterinarian medicine or dentistry at the end of their sophomore year; BOARD: The pre-professional advisory board, made up of 4. make appropriate recom­ mendation to the indicated 2. indicate to the student before their junior year, where possible, the advisability of remaining in the program; 3. meet with and interview all students from which MCAT, VAT, DAT or OCAT scores have been received; BIOLOGY & CHEMISTRY 108 �medical, veterinary or universities based upon: dental b. interview performance; c. grade point average; a. personal knowledge of student’s performance while at Lake Superior State University; d. and MCAT, VAT, DAT or OCAT scores. Pre-Pharmacy (Transfer Program) The two-year course of study outlined below is a guide for those who plan to apply for admission and transfer to a three-year professional pharmacy curriculum at another In Michigan, such institution, programs are offered at Ferris State University, University of Michigan, and Wayne State University. For further information and planning, students are advised to consult catalogs from these or other institutions. Generally, application for admission to a professional pharmacy curriculum must be submitted after completing the first year of pre-pharmacy. Generally, students must have a cumulative grade point average of 2.00 as well as grades of C or better in sciences and mathematics. Students entering Ferris State University with one year of high school physics may pass a physics proficiency examination in lieu of the year of college Physics.

The computer has moved out of the back room of large corporations and research institutions into the front offices and living rooms of modem society. Computer scientists work at the leading edge of this revolution, developing software systems that allow us to utilize the electronic hardware the engineers have built. The work is challenging, and often frustrating, but is ultimately very rewarding. THE DEPARTMENT offers a Bachelor of Science In Computer and Mathematical Sciences that combines a study of digital computing with the study of mathematical concepts. The resulting program provides students with considerable versatility and potential for future endeavors in which practical quantitative skills are important. A MINOR in computer science is also available to provide excellent support and value to most majors offered at the University. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS: To qualify for admission to the program in computer and mathematical sciences, applicants must satisfy University admission requirements as described in the Admissions section of this Catalog. (This information is also included in the Viewbook.) Secondary school academic subjects should include: Three units of English, two units of algebra, one unit of geometry. It is strongly recommended that applicants have a fourth unit of college-preparatory mathematics which includes one-half unit of trigonometry. A unit of chemistry or physics is also recommended. Completion of the program may require more than four years for students who do not meet all entrance requirements. For students with college-level achievement, the opportunity will be offered, by means of examination, to obtain course credit or placement into an advanced course.

Our present environment is the result of the cumulative interaction of many dynamic physical, chemical and biological processes. GEOLOGY deals with the dynamic earth, its physical makeup, and its physical and organic history. It involves the study of changes which have taken place and the forces which cause, and are now causing, these changes. By drawing on concepts of biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics geologists attempt to understand the physical environment in which we live and from which we derive most of the natural resources essential to our civilization. Our civilization requires many non-renewable natural resources in order to survive. Since the turn of the century, we have used more and more of these resources at an everincreasing rate and now have critical supply problems. Our demands upon the environment have significantly changed the earth around us, and, if we are to survive, we must live within the constraints imposed by nature. Geologists study and understand these constraints. They must apply their knowledge to achieve harmony between the human race and its environment. BACHELOR OF SCIENCE GEOLOGY GEOLOGY HAS A BROAD scientific base in mathematics, physics, biology and chemistry as well as emphasizing fundamentals COMPUTER, GEOLOGIC AND MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES 143 �of geologic science and geophysics. Increases in the demand for energy fuels and mineral products result in an expansion of opportunities for graduates in geology. Students contemplating careers in geology should, upon graduating, expect to travel, often to remote and uninhabited areas. Most of the jobs entail outdoor field work, often under difficult conditions. Other new fields are now requiring geologists, such as NASA, EPA, and companies and agencies involved with environmental concerns. The geological environment of Lake Superior State University provides unexcelled opportunities for field study of classic sections illustrating Precambrian stratigraphy, structure, intrusions, and metamorphism and undisturbed Paleozoic sedimentary formations. Proximity to deposits of iron, copper, uranium, dolomite and the Michigan oil and gas fields as well as other minerals is an additional advantage. Students are eligible to participate in the department’s active research in micropaleontology (conodonts). satisfy University admission requirements as described in the Admissions section of the Catalog. (This information is also included in the Viewbook.) Secondary school academic subjects should include: Three units of English, two units of algebra, one unit of geometry, and one unit of chemistry and physics.

THE ENGINEERING TEAM: Most activities involving engineering have increased in complexity so that a team of The size and cost of engineering professionals is required, engineering endeavors have dictated the employment of professional engineers, engineering technologists, technicians and skilled craftsmen as a team. Bachelor of science degrees in engineering technology are offered at LSSU along with associate degrees in engineering technology. LSSU offers the first two years of a professional engineering program after which a student can transfer to a school of engineering. LSSU does not offer training in the skilled trades. PROGRAMS The education of engineering technologists focuses on application and implementation of current Engineering technologies, technology programs strive to balance the theoretical and practical aspects of engineering science. Typical job responsibilities of engineering technologists include product and process design, system design and implementation, and operations management. Graduates with bachelor of science degrees are adequately prepared for graduate studies in egineering technology. ACCREDITATION All of the programs in Engineering Technology, both 4-year and 2-year, are accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering The U.S. and Technology. i Department of Education formally recognizes this boards exclusive jurisdiction for accredition of engineering and engineering technology education.

The athletic trainer works closely with physicians and other health care professionals in order to provide today’s athletes with the best medical care possible. Those who pursue a career in athletic training may seek employment on the high school, college, or professional sport levels. In addition, the athletic trainer may be employed in sports medicine and health fitness clinics, the number of which has greatly increased in the past decade. All the above mentioned positions usually require certification by the National Athletic Trainers’ Association. Students completing the concentration at Lake Superior State University will be more marketable in the field of exercise science and eligible for a variety of graduate programs in athletic training and sports medicine throughout the country. Any student wishing to achieve eligibility to sit for the National Athletic Trainers’ Association certification examination will receive individual guidance in that direction.

Since government and politics are found at many levels— international, national, state, and local-and all over the world, political science has many facets. All of these facets receive attention in the political science program at Lake Superior State University. The goal of the curriculum is to prepare students interested in government and politics for rewarding careers and lifetimes of learning and involvement. To best achieve this goal, three distinct concentrations or tracks are available for students of political science: 1. general political science 2 pre-law, 3. public administration. Each concentration has beedesigned to provide a combination knowledge and skills that is uniqm appropriate for those with particu I career goals. However, choosir one concentration over the otheri does not limit a student to one particular career path-each of the concentrations provides a solid grounding in political science. BACHELOR OF ARTS/SCIENCE POLITICAL SCIENCE - GENERAL The general political science concentration is designed to provide a broad education in political science. It is most appropriate for students who plan to attend graduate school in political science and for those with an interest in government and politics who wish to get a broad, liberal education as preparation for a career in business, government, or journalism. Students who continue their education in graduate school most often pursue careers SOCIAL SCIENCES - SOCIAL SCIENCES - 209 �as professors, researchers, consultants, or government officials. Students who do not pursue graduate study choose from a wide variety of career options in business, government, and journalism.

BACHELOR OF ARTS/SCIENCE POLITICAL SCIENCE - PRE LAW The pre-law concentration provides students of political science interested in legal careers with a planned curriculum that prepares them especially well for law school and for careers in law. Students who choose this option are often interested in careers as attorneys, prosecutors, or judges. It should be noted that this is not a mandatory pre-law curriculum; it is a curriculum for pre-law students who have a special interest in government and politics. Noteworthy features of this concentration are a special course on the nature of legal careers and how to prepare for them; two courses in legal research and writing that provide students with a head start in using a law library and in conducting legal research; and a well-designed combination of support courses in logic, debate, writing, accounting, and research.

Students who choose this option are preparing for careers of public service. Such careers may be pursued through positions in government agencies at the local, state or provincial, and national levels. Other positions may be found in nonprofit organizations involved in public concerns, such as Common Cause, the Environmental Defense Fund, and the Michigan Health Council. Some of these careers of public service may be pursued with only a bachelor’s degree. Others may require completion of a master’s degree in public administration or a related field. Senior public administration students will complete an internship as part of their education. Internships allow students to apply the knowledge they have gained in the classroom in an on-the-job setting. They are also valuable for creating a record of experience that will impress prospective employers and help the student become established in a career. Internships, which are arranged with the assistance of an advisor, are available with local, state or provincial, and federal agencies.

However, no prescribed course of study can be recommended to all students who plan to Students entering law school choose attend law school. undergraduate majors from a wide variety of fields. As previously indicated, a pre-law concentration is offered in the political science curriculum and various law courses are offered as a part of the legal SOCIAL SCIENCES - SOCIAL SCIENCES • 214 �assistant studies program at Lake Superior State University. See appropriate political science and legal assistant studies program listings, which are part of the Social Sciences Department. Students interested in a legal career should consult with the pre-law advisor early and often during their undergraduate studies. The pre-law advisor is located in the Social Sciences Department, Pre-law planning based on consultation with the advisor will allow the student to make an informed choice of curriculum and of elective courses that will help with the development of the skills mentioned below. The pre-law advisor will also provide pre-law students with a variety of materials about admission to law school, the law school admission test, and careers in law. A student’s undergraduate grade point average and his or her score on the Law School Admission Test (LSAT) are the two most important criteria for admission to law school. Details on admission policies of law schools throughout the country, and the degree to which these schools may use other criteria in addition to grade point average and LSAT score, may be found in the Pre-Law Handbook. The Pre-Law Handbook is published by the Law School Admission Council/Law School Admission Services and is the official law school guide. This handbook may be examined by contacting the pre-law advisor, or may be purchased in many book stores. Although there is no prescribed major which must be taken for admission to law school, some curricula may be better than others in helping students develop skills necessary for admission to law school and for a successful legal career. A broad and challenging undergraduate curriculum is the best preparation for law school. The PreLaw Handbook stresses that a student’s undergraduate education should lead to the development of skills in three areas: (1) the ability to understand and express oneself well in words, (2) the development of a critical understanding of the human institutions and values with which the law deals, and (3) the development of creative power in thinking. A pre-law student should consider the need to develop these skills in selecting his or her curriculum. In addition, students should think about whether the curriculum they choose can provide an alternative to a career in law should they eventually choose not to pursue a legal career. PSYCHOLOGY BACHELOR OF ARTS/BACHELOR OF SCIENCES PSYCHOLOGY Psychology is the systematic study of behavior and mental processes in humans and animals. The major provides students with SOCIAL SCIENCES - SOCIAL SCIENCES -215 �exposure to the areas that define contemporary scientific psychology. The psychology major helps a student develop analytical thinking and communication skills which are applicable to a variety of careers. Many psychology majors pursue post baccalaureate degrees. Psychology electives enable students to construct a program of study consistent with their professional goals. The Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degrees differ only in the nature of the cognate; science classes or foreign language classes, respectively.

The MBA Program reflects a realis­ tic approach to graduate work in two ways. First, the courses tend to be more applied or practical, and are thus more useful for the practicing manager. Second, the courses are offered evenings and weekends, tailored specifically for the employed person. PROGRAM OBJECTIVES 1. To provide individuals with advanced academic work in the field of business and manage­ ment education. 2. To provide individuals with a graduate program that is oriented to a pragmatic study of business and management education. 3. To provide individuals with a program that will prepare them for management positions in public and private units in society. 4. To provide individuals with an opportunity to develop a capacity for self-directed and professional growth. 5. To provide individuals with a program that provides a broadbase exposure to the general concepts of management. 6. To provide individuals employed full-time with an opportunity to secure graduate management education on a part-time basis. 7. To provide opportunities for a multi-disciplinary approach to learning through an exchange of graduate faculty of other institu­ tions. FACULTY The MBA graduate faculty consists of full-time Lake Superior State University faculty, adjunct faculty from other colleges and universities, and visiting scholars. Faculty are selected on the basis of their creden­ tials, business training, industrial experience, professional reputation, and interest in graduate management education.

(Financial Resources Goal) GOAL NUMBER VI Maintain/upgrade Lake Superior State University’s grounds, buildings, and facilities to provide an attractive and safe environment for the students, staff and public associated with the university. (Physical Resources Goal) �LAKE SUPERIOR STATE UNIVERSITY MISSION STATEMENT Lake Superior tState University is a co-educational, public, comprehensive institution that recognizes as its primary mission the offering of challenging undergraduate programs to students from Michigan, Northern Ontario, and the near Midwest in anticipation of preparing them for stimulating lives and satisfying careers in the twenty-first century. By design a relatively small institution, Lake Superior Stave University strives to carry out its primary mission by realizing a collegial community in which all its constituencies share in the teaching, research, and regional service activities of the Institution. In this supportive environment students, staff, faculty, and administrators demonstrate high regard for one another as valued members of the community, thus providing opportunities for emotional and social maturation as well as intellectual growth. AIT educational programming at Lake Superior State University rests on an acknowledged commitment to an integrated relationship between the liberal arts and professional/technical fields. That relationship fosters the development of students as contributing citizens, viable professionals, and fulfilled individuals, who think critically, appreciate creativity, have problem-solving skills and express continuing intellectual curiosity about themselves, others, and the world around them. The University’s international setting complements its efforts to assist students in the expansion of their perspectives. Lake Superior State University’s primary mission, thus, draws its validity from the knowledge that today’s students—tomorrow’s leaders will best serve humanity by having: the necessary infor­ mation to understand the past; the critical thinking skills to assess contemporary problems; and the enlightened courage to face with enthusiasm the uncertainty of the future. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The Lake Superior State University Catalog does not constitute a contract between the University and its student on either a collective or individual basis. It represents LSSU’s best academic, social, and financial planning at the time of publication. Course and curriculum changes, modification of tuition; fees, dormitory, meal, and other charges, plus unforeseen changes in other aspects of LSSU life, sometimes occur after the Catalog has been printed, but before the changes can be incorporated in a later edition of the same publication. Because of this, Lake Superior State University does not assume a contractual obligation with its students for the contents of this Catalog. LSSU admits and hires men and women, veterans, and disabled individuals of any race, color, national, or ethnic origin, or marital status in compliance with all appropriate legislation, including the Age Discrimination Act.

The primary purpose of the University is to educate and train young people for rewarding careers and lives of meaning. We: REGARD STUDENTS as mature, responsible individuals en­ gaged in the processes of self gov­ ernment which are essential in a democratic society. TEACH INDIVIDUALS, not groups’, with a close-working rela­ tionship between instructors and students. Each student has a faculty advisor and may also consult the counseling service. EDUCATE STUDENTS for well-rounded lives’, not only intellec­ tual competence, but physical, social, and cultural development. The pro­ gram of general education includes courses such as recreational activi­ ties, natural sciences, social sciences, English language and literature, and the humanities. Athletic events, clubs, dramatic and cultural presenta­ tions, and student self-government organizations offer a wide variety of co-curricular activities. TEACH FUNDAMENTALS and their application. In modem society knowledge increases so rap­ idly that specific facts may become obsolete even before they are widely learned. Close attention to funda­ mentals is necessary. The University attempts to inculcate habits of learn­ ing, thinking and doing which, thoughtfully modified, will endure for a lifetime. ENCOURAGE INITIATIVE, self criticism, and intellectual curios­ ity, leam by doing. Education in fundamental knowledge should be supplemented by laboratory and field work in order that university prepa­ ration closely resembles conditions in professional careers. Students should develop lifelong intellectual curiosity and discovery, become constructive critics of themselves and of society, and leam to prize creative, original thinking. IN RETROSPECT HISTORIC: Lake Superior State University is a hilltop campus, situat­ ed on the historic site of Fort Brady, a U.S. Army post dating back to 1822. The campus overlooks the St. Mary’s River and the famous Soo Locks. After the fort was deactivat­ ed in 1944, the property was acquired by Michigan Technological University to establish a branch. Thus, the campus is a blend of his­ toric and modem architecture. The University was accorded four-year status by the State Board of Educa­ tion in 1966, and authorized to grant baccalaureate degrees. THE UNIVERSITY • 6 �WE ARE The first baccalaureate class graduat­ ed in 1967. Autonomy, separating the University from Michigan Tech­ nological University, was granted January 1, 1970. On November 4, 1987, Governor James Blanchard signed legislation changing Lake Superior State from College to Uni­ versity. CAMPUS RESIDENCE facili­ ties include two traditional halls, a Student Village with eight-person apartments, townhouses, a mobile home park, several apartment build­ ings and unique family-style houses. Canusa Hall provides food service facilities. The Walker Cisler Center offers recreational facilities as well as a snack bar, student offices, and meeting rooms. The James Norris Physical Education Center provides ample opportunity for a variety of recreational activities, intramurals, courses and intercollegiate athletics. The Center for Applied Sciences and Engineering Technology offers stu­ dents the latest in modem technolog­ ical resources. A seasoned faculty and high academ­ ic standards have earned Lake Supe­ rior State University a reputation for an enriched education in such areas as liberal arts, engineering technol­ ogy, business administration, social sciences, biological sciences and their allied fields. The need to provide continuing education for adults has not been overlooked. The University offers evening courses as well as confer­ ences and cultural programs. Enroll- ment of part-time students in day classes is encouraged. Students find the close relationship between faculty and the student body is extremely valuable in the first years of university work. No one is "lost in the crowd" here. THE CAMPUS ENVIRONMENT: The campus provides a true university environ­ ment, with its own classroom and laboratory buildings, residence halls, library, auditorium, gymnasium, food services, and health center. It con­ sists of 121 acres of spacious, wood­ ed campus on the western heights of Sault Ste. Marie overlooking the St. Mary’s River, Lake Superior and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. Students find that the city of Sault Ste. Marie and its environs offer much of value to enhance their edu­ Sault Ste. cational experiences. Marie is one of the oldest cities in the United States. It was a fur trad­ ing center as early as the second quarter of the seventeenth century. In 1641, a Jesuit mission was estab­ lished here, and 27 years later Father Marquette founded at the Sault the first permanent settlement within the limits of Michigan. The Sault cele­ brated its 300th birthday in 1968. ACCREDITATION: How does this university rank with other educa­ tional institutions scholastically? Accreditation means the curricula, faculty, equipment, laboratories, and library of an institution have been THE UNIVERSITY 7 �inspected and approved. Lake Supe­ rior State University is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Fourth year instruction in medical technology is in hospitals approved by the Council on Medical Education and Hospitals of the American Medi­ cal Association. Engineering Technology associate degree programs accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc. include: com­ puter; drafting and design; electrical and mechanical engineering technol­ ogy. The Board has also accredited four-year programs in electrical, mechanical and automated systems engineering technology. The nursing program is accredited by the National League for Nursing.

NOTES EQUAL OPPORTUNITY 15 �ACADEMIC The Academic Policies and regulations of Lake Superior State University which are intended to guide students through an orderly and successful pursuit of their academic goals, describe the necessary actions and procedures for which students are responsible. They outline the students’ expectations and rights while enrolled as a university student. Advisors, department heads and personnel of university offices will help students to understand these policies and regulations; however, it is each student’s individual responsibility to comply with them. THE ACADEMIC YEAR Lake Superior State University is on a semester system. (Previous to Fall Semester 1991 it was on a quarter system.) The academic year consists of a Fall Semester (late August through December) and a Spring Semester (January through April or early May), Fall and Spring semesters consist of fifteen weeks of instruction followed by a week for During the final examinations. Summer Semester (May through early August) most courses are conducted during an eight week period which includes two days for final examinations. Specific dates for each semester are found in the University Calendar located elsewhere in this book. ACADEMIC CREDIT In a lecture/recitation type course students receive one credit for each fi fteen hours of classroom instruction. (For example, a threecredit course of this type might be scheduled 9:00 to 9:50 AM Monday, Wednesday and Friday. An "hour" period is usually only 50 minutes long, with ten minutes allowed for students to move from class to class.) Courses including laboratory, field work or other non-lecture formats may be scheduled for more than one hour per week per credit. In general, one credit requires an average of three hours of the student’s time per In week for the semester, lecture/recitation courses this would normally be accomplished with one hour of classroom attendance and two hours of preparation or study. An average student credit load per semester is sixteen credits. One hundred twenty four credits is the minimum number required for a Some baccalaureate degree, programs require more than this minimum. CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS Students are assigned to one of four class levels as follows: 0 to 25 credits = Freshman; 26 to 55 credits = Sophomore; 56 to 87 = Junior; 88+ = Senior. ACADEMIC POLICIES 16 �POLICIES STUDENT CURRICULUM CHOICE AND ADVISING Students are encouraged to select a major program upon admission to The academic the University, department offering the chosen program is called the "major department". The department head of the major department assigns an academic advisor to each of the students. An advisor assists students in course selection each semester, in understanding program and university requirements and regulations, in evaluating academic progress, and in other matters related to successful academic achievement. Lake Superior State University is firmly committed to providing students personalized advising and support. Students are encouraged to actively seek help from their instructors, advisors, department head, Counseling Center, and any other faculty, staff or office which they believe might be of assistance. The Counseling Center provides academic tutoring as does the Native American Center and academic departments. These services are usually provided without charge to Additional enrolled students, information concerning advising services is listed under testing and counseling service in this catalog. Students who are undecided about their choice of a major program are classified as majoring in Liberal Arts, an associate degree program, and assigned a provisional academic advisor until another major is chosen. Students may change their major curriculum by processing a Curriculum Change Card through the Registrar’s Office. The Registrar’s Office, Counseling Center and departmental offices can provide students with the card and instructions for processing it. Curriculum Change cards must be filed with the Registrar’s Office each time a curriculum change is made so that advisor materials, grade reports and graduation information will be sent to the correct department and advisor. Students will be assigned a new advisor when a curriculum change is made. Students may request a change of advisor by asking their major department head to make such change. SEMESTER COURSE SELECTION Each semester the Scheduling Office publishes a Course Schedule listing all courses offered during the semester along with related information such as days and hour of course offering, instructor and the final examination time. This booklet is available several weeks before the semester begins and contains timely and important information for students. Students are responsible for reading each semester’s Course Schedule and adhering to its instructions. Course Schedules and ACADEMIC POLICIES 17 �scheduling materials are available from all departmental offices and the Scheduling Office. After academic advising, students schedule courses by submitting required materials to the Scheduling Office according to the time schedule described in the Course Schedule. After scheduling courses, students have a limited period of time to pay tuition and related fees. At the end of this period deregistration occurs. Deregistration means that students' registration in all classes is canceled. Students who are deregistered will usually find fewer available classes from which to choose when rescheduling. Several factors assist or limit student course selections. Placement examinations for mathematics and English are administered by the Counseling and Testing Center located in Brown Hall. These examinations are required of all students before they schedule their first courses in mathematics or English. MAXIMUM STUDENT CREDIT LOAD is twenty credits per semester, with the exception that students having a 3.00 cumulative grade point average may take additional credit with written approval of their major department head. Students on academic probation should not take more than fifteen credits per semester. PREREQUISITES. Students must satisfy prerequisites, and any other stated conditions before enrolling in a course or have permission from an instructor to waive the prerequisites. Enrollment in a course may be revoked (with an N grade) if it is found during the regular drop period that the proper prerequisites have not been met. Responsibility rests with students to be certain that they have the approved prerequisites. Permission to take any course out of sequence is seldom granted even to exceptional students, since electing a course for which one is not prepared imposes an additional burden not reflected in the total number of credits being carried. Students must earn passing grades in a prerequisite course before taking the next course in sequence. For some courses a C (2.00) grade or better is required. Exceptions may be made only by department heads or the course instructor. Students who receive a D grade in a prerequisite course or a course in the major are strongly advised (and may be required) to repeat the course, and raise the D, before continuing. REPEATS. Students may not repeat a course by enrollment or examination if they have passed a course for which the repeated course is a prerequisite. Exceptions may be granted by the department head with the concurrence of the Registrar. CHANGES IN COURSE SCHEDULE. A period of time is provided at the beginning of each semester for students to add or delete courses or reschedule all classes after having been deregistered. Courses deleted during this period will not appear on a student’s permanent record (transcript). The add/delete period for a full semester course begins on the first day of the semester, and ends on the sixth university business day. For courses which span less than a full semester, a shorter add/delete period may be established. During the add/delete period schedule changes are initiated at departmental offices which ACADEMIC POLICIES 18 �maintain current records of class availability. In some cases faculty permission will be required for Detailed course changes, information on adding or deleting classes is provided to students in the Course Schedule booklet each semester. A STUDENT’S ADD OR WITHDRAWAL FROM A COURSE IS NOT OFFICIALLY COMPLETED UNLESS THE APPROPRIATE FORM IS FILED WITH THE SCHEDULING OFFICE. Students are advised to retain the official receipt they are given upon completion of an add or drop procedure. LATE ADDS. Students request­ ing to add courses after the end of the add/delete period must obtain permission and a special form for this purpose from the Registrar’s Office, obtain the written approval of the instructor, and then return the form to the Registrar’s Office. A service charge will be charged for this procedure. Students are responsible for all class work missed previous to adding a class. NON-ATTENDANCE AT FIRST CLASS. Students sched­ uled for a course, but not attending the first class meeting, may be deleted by the instructor during the delete period. In this case, the instructor shall submit a delete form and notify the student. DROPPING COURSES AFTER THE ADD/DELETE PERIOD. Students may drop a course during the first five weeks (twenty five school days) of a full semester course. For courses running less than a full semester the semester Course Schedule booklet will contain official dates each semester. (The time period for dropping will be equal to a third of the course instructional period.) A student’s record shall indicate an N grade for each course officially dropped during this period. Forms for the procedure are available in departmental, Scheduling and Registrar’s Offices. After the five-week drop period, drops will be allowed only for A extenuating circumstances, student’s record shall indicate a W grade for courses officially dropped during this period. The student must receive the instructor’s recommen­ dation and the approval of the Registrar. Forms may be obtained at the Registrar’s Office. CLASS ATTENDANCE Students at Lake Superior State University should be sufficiently mature to attend classes without being required to do so. Students must decide for themselves when it is necessary to be absent. In making such a decision, they must understand that instructors are authorized to lower grades if they believe a student’s absence requires this action. The policy on attendance reads as follows: 1. Absences will be handled according to the instructor’s discretion, consistent with departmental policy. 2. Instructors may report consecutive or excessive absences to the Executive Vice President. 3. Participation in an official University function shall be considered an excused absence when approved by the Vice President of Academic Affairs. Students shall not be penalized for participation in such a function; but students are ACADEMIC POLICIES 19 �responsible for work missed and must confer with their instructor on this matter. COMPLETE WITHDRAWAL FROM THE UNIVERSITY Full time students who withdraw from the University during the First Five-weeks of the semester should report in person to the Counseling Center and complete a withdrawal form for the Registrar’s ofFice. The Registrar will authorize the appropriate refund, if any. Refunds will be mailed after the end of the refund period. After the Five-week drop period, students must report to the Registrar’s OfFice for the Withdrawal Form. Proper clearance of University obligations assures that students can later receive transfer of credits. Students with a hold on their transcript will not receive a transcript of credits until clearance is complete. THE GRADING SYSTEM GRADE POINT AVERAGE (GPA). To compute the grade point average for a semester, divide the total points earned by the total credits carried, Credits carried include those failed or earned but not credits for Credit/No Credit courses. To Figure the cumulative grade point average divide the total points earned by the total credits carried in all semesters, When a course is repeated, count only the credits carried and the points of the last grade earned. Thus, successfully repeating courses in which students initially earned a D or F is an effective way for them to improve their cumulative GPA. A cumulative grade point average of 2.00 for all credits carried is required for graduation. Further, the student must compile a 2.00 grade point average for all departmental courses required in the student’s major and minor(s). GRADES AND GRADE POINTS Grades awarded are: Grade A+ A Excellent AB+ B Good BC+ C Average CD+ D Inferior DF Failure I Incomplete N No Grade W Withdrawal Z Deferred CR Credit NCR No Credit Grade Points per Credit 4 4 3.7 3.3 3 2.7 2.3 2 1.7 1.3 1 .7 0 0 0 0 0 . 0 0 Incomplete grades (I): An incomplete grade is given only when students, because of circumstances beyond their control, are unable to complete a segment of the course. It must be made up by the date speciFied by the instructor which must be within a maximum of two semesters in residence, or else the incomplete grade becomes a failure. Summer semesters are not counted unless a student is enrolled for classes during the summer. No Grade (N) and Withdrawal (W) grades: An N grade will be given for each course officially dropped during the ACADEMIC POLICIES • 20 �first five weeks and a W grade will be given for each course officially dropped after the five week drop period. Deferred grades (Z): Deferred grades are given in those special courses where work is planned to extend beyond a single semester. GRADE REPORTS. Reports concerning grades and credits are sent to each student after each semester. These reports are mailed to home addresses. DEAN’S LIST. Students who complete twelve or more credits in a semester with a grade point average of 3.50 or higher will be placed on the dean’s list for that semester, acknowledging their outstanding achievement. ACADEMIC PROBATION Students at Lake Superior State University enjoy a considerable degree of self-determination; they decide for themselves when and how long to work on each assignment. The best way to succeed in this task is to work out a weekly schedule with two hours of study time earmarked as preparation for each one-hour class. (In a few cases, the instructor may suggest some other division of time.) Most students are able to maintain good work in all their courses. A few fall short of satisfactory performance. For them, a system of academic probation is used. Academic probation is considered a warning to students that their scholastic performance is below the University’s minimum requirements. During this period, students should determine for themselves whether to continue their programs as planned. No student while on probation shall carry more than 15 credits per semester exclusive of band and The recreational activities. Executive Vice-president, in consultation with the student’s advisor, may impose restrictions on the student’s extra-curricular activities. It is the responsibility of students to familiarize themselves with all academic regulations including those relating to probation, and to keep informed as to their academic The rules governing standing. academic probation, dismissal, and reinstatement follow. 1. Students will be on academic probation if their cumulative grade point average is in the "on probation" category. 2. Students whose cumulative grade point average at the conclusion of a semester falls into the dismissal range of the academic standing table will be dismissed. 3. After a first or second dismissal a student has the following options: a. Allow two semesters (summer may be counted for one semester) to elapse before re-enrollment or b. Petition the Scholastic Standards Committee for immediate readmittance. This action is initiated with the Registrar. The Committee can permit early readmittance with specific conditions required of the student or deny the student’s request.

Students who continue after a dismissal will be dismissed again after any semester in which their cumulative grade point average falls in the dismissal category. The Registrar may allow the student to continue on probation” with the record showing "on probation" instead of "dismissal", if the student’s record has shown improvement during the semester and student has a 2.00 grade point average in courses carried for that semester. 5. Students dismissed a third time will not be reinstated without the permission of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Three semesters must elapse from the time of dismissal before the student may petition for readmittance. Summer may be counted for one semester. 6. The Scholastic Standards Committee may, on the recommendation of a department head require students to withdraw from any course or courses in which their preparation, progress, effort or conduct is deemed unsatisfactory and may on the recommendation of the Vice President of Academic Affairs and/or Executive Vice President dismiss students from the University if their background, overall academic accomplish­ ment, conduct or attitude toward their work is deemed unsatisfact­ ory. CREDIT/NO CREDIT COURSES To encourage intellectual explor­ ation, students may enroll in some courses on a credit/no credit basis for which either a grade of CR or NCR is given. To be eligible for this option students must be in good ACADEMIC POLICIES 22 �academic standing, not on academic probation. Only one such course per semester is permitted and no more than twelve semester credits in such courses may be presented toward a student’s degree requirements. Additionally, this credit/no credit option may not be selected in courses which satisfy major, minor or general education requirements. Students must apply at the Registrar’s Office during the six-day add period if they want to enroll in a graded course under the credit/no credit policy. This option may not be changed after the six-day add period. Academic performance at the level of 2.00 or higher is required for the credit, CR, grade. Instructors are not advised of a student’s option to be graded credit/no credit. Certain courses are always offered with a credit/no credit grading format. Such courses have this information in their official course descriptions and course syllabi. The above policy and limitations do not apply to these courses. CREDIT BY EXAMINATION There are three examination processes by which a student may earn credit for individual courses or general education requirements; Advanced Placement, CLEP and departmental examinations. Pro­ cesses for taking Advanced Placement and CLEP examinations are described in the Admissions section of this Catalog. Students must be admitted to a degree program before being eligible to receive credit by examination. A maximum of 30 credits may be CLEP earned by examination, examinations, if available, will be used to determine whether credit shall be granted. Departments may provide their own examinations for certain courses. Students should inquire at the academic department offering the course whether a departmental examination is available. If an examination is available, the department head’s written approval to take the examination must be obtained. An application form for credit by examination with explanation of the necessary procedural steps, may be obtained from the department head or the Registrar’s Office. The fee amount will be equivalent to that for CLEP exams and students will not be charged tuition for the credits earned. An examination grade of 2.00 or better is required for credit to be earned. Course and credit earned by examination shall be recorded on the student’s transcript with the Some grade marked as CR. universities may not accept for transfer, credit earned by departmental examination. TRANSCRIPTS Students desiring transcripts of their Lake Superior State University records must present or send a written request to the Registrar’s Office. Information such as name (at enrollment), ID number, dates of attendance is necessary. A fee may be charged for each copy of the record. The official record of the student’s academic progress (transcript) will be forwarded only to those places or persons requested in writing by the student. Only "student copy" transcripts will be issued directly to a student. Students with financial or other obligations to the University will not receive a transcript until all obligations are cleared.

CHEATING AND PLAGIA­ RISM: The assumption of the academic contract is that the student does his or her own work: any breach of the contract is considered cheating. The faculty member who detects a student cheating may take appropriate action, such as assigning a failing grade for the entire course. A student who cheats is subject to dismissal from the University. If, in the opinion of the faculty member involved, such action is warranted, he or she will notify the chairman of the scholastic standards committee and the student to that effect in writing. The scholastic standards STUDENT STANDARDS 34 �STANDARDS AND CONDUCT committee will then conduct a hearing in such a manner that the student is given due process. If the committee decides that dismissal is warranted, the student shall have five school days to appeal that decision to the president of the University. 4. COMPLIANCE WITH UNI­ VERSITY OFFICIALS: Students are expected to comply with the directions of University officials who are acting in accordance with the performance of their duties. Failure to comply with such directions shall be considered a serious disciplinary violation. 5. FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS: A student’s fees, loans, fines, driving and parking penalties, etc. are his or her responsibilities and must be paid when due. Delay in attention to financial responsibilities may require some or all of the following actions by the University: it may withhold official transcripts, prohibit further registration, remove registration if already granted, withhold further forms of financial aid, and in severe cases, seek legal action from outside agencies, including the State of Michigan itself. 6. FIREARMS AND EXPLO­ SIVES: Explosives, firecrackers, concealed weapons and similar items are not permitted on campus. Firearms are permitted, but must be registered and stored by the office of campus security. Any student who keeps firearms anywhere in the dormitory system will face dismissal from the University. 7. GUEST SPEAKERS: Only student organizations formally recognized by the University may invite speakers to the campus. Reservations for rooms or lecture halls for guest speakers are made through the director of student activities. 8. HOUSING: University housing regulations are published annually in the Housing Handbook. Students failing to comply with these regulations may suffer a variety of disciplinary penalties, including separation from the housing system or separation from the University itself. 9. I.D. CARDS: All students enrolled in this institution are issued an identification card to facilitate recognition for the library, for cashing checks, for campus voting, for admission to campus activities, etc. Misuse or alteration of the University identification card, current or expired, is considered a serious offense subject to disciplinary action. 10. PARKING: All students who operate motor vehicles on campus must register them each year (normally accomplished during registration).

No organization which practices either racial or sexual discrimination will receive support, either directly or indirectly from the University. 14. THEFT: Property of the University, as well as that of individuals, must be respected. Theft of any kind, whether of money or of other property, is prohibited. The destruction or mutilation of books, magazines, or other library material will not be tolerated. Theft of, damage to, or destruction of the property of others is considered a serious offense against the University community, and will result in the separation of the student from the University. 15. TREATMENT OF OTHERS: Abuse, either physical or verbal, of any person on University-owned or controlled property, or at Universitysponsored or supervised functions, will result in disciplinary action by the University. No conduct will be permitted which threatens or endangers the health or safety of any person on the University campus or at University related activities.

Expulsion appropriate hearing officer or group in such cases. Instances involving possible academic cheating or plagiarism will be considered by the appropriate instructor and/or the Scholastic Standards Committee. Situations involving possible violations of the University’s standards shall be handled according to the following process. At a minimum, the process will include: 1. A notice to the student of the charges involved and of the individual or office bringing those charges. 2. An opportunity for the student to respond to the charges, and to request a formal hearing on them if desired. PROCEDURES 3. A hearing at which the student has the right to examine any evidence against him, confront and question those bringing the charge, and introduce any persons he or she wishes to speak on his or her behalf.

NOTES STUDENT STANDARDS • 38 �ADMISSIONS FRESHMEN A prospective freshman still in high school may make application to Lake Superior State University any time during the final year of high school. Applications for admission are processed continuously and students are notified as quickly as possible. A final transcript of courses completed during the final year must be submitted to the Admissions Office promptly after completion of the school year. Failure to provide a final transcript may result in the withdrawal or an offer of admission. An official score report from American College Testing (ACT) must also be submitted prior to class registration. A prospective freshman who has already graduated from high school but not attended any college or university must have an official transcript sent directly from the high school to the Admissions Office. The transcript must include all courses taken, starting with grade nine, and graduation certification. Admitted applicants who graduated from high school fewer than 26 months prior to the date they wish to enter the University must submit their scores from American College Testing (ACT) prior to registering for classes. The' primary factor in evaluating an application for admission is the individual’s grade point average in academic subjects only. The grade point average for each applicant is recalculated, starting with grade nine, and includes only academic courses such as English, biology, chemistry, physics, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, senior math, social studies, and foreign languages. Seventy-five percent of the freshmen entering LSSU have an overall high school grade point average of 2.47 or higher. The top 25 percent of the entering freshmen have an overall high school grade point averages of 3.18 or higher. The admissions requirements for students entering any major offered by the Biology and Chemistry Department are slightly higher than the minimum to gain admission to the University. Secondary factors which may also influence the admission decision are the number of academic courses an applicant has completed, the trend from year to year of the applicant’s grades, class rank, and recommendations. ACT scores are rarely a factor in the admissions decision. All credentials should be submitted to the Admissions Office at least three weeks before the semester of entry. However, if available spaces become filled, application processing will end at an earlier date. To qualify for admission as freshmen, applicants are expected to be graduates of accredited secondary schools. Any student graduating from a non-accredited school should contact the Dean of Admissions for an explanation of the testing procedure used to evaluate an applicant who has attended a nonaccredited school. Students denied admission may reapply for admission after attending another accredited college of their choice and earning at least 30 semester (45 quarter) hours of transferable credit. The evaluation for admission is then based upon the college record rather than the high school record. ADMISSIONS 39 �TRANSFER STUDENTS Freshman Admissions File Application materials from prospec­ tive freshmen to complete their ad­ mission applications include: Transfer students must possess a 2.00 cumulative college grade point average and be eligible to return to their former college(s) unless they have completed their required course work. A completed application for admis­ sion, which is available at the Admis­ sions Office of Lake Superior State University or at your school guidance office. A non-refundable application process­ ing fee of $20 (U.S. funds) must be submitted before an application will be processed. Make check or money order (not cash) payable to Lake Superior State University. A complete, official transcript of your high school credits or GED score report. A report of your scores from Ameri­ can College Testing (ACT), which should be taken before graduation from high school. ACT registration materials are available at your guid­ ance office. ACT scores are general­ ly used for counseling and placement purposes. All veterans must submit an official, certified copy of separation form DD214 with their applications. The health history questionnaire, sent to admitted students must be com­ pleted by the student or by the stud­ ent’s parent and returned to the University’s Health Services Office. Enter your social security number in the appropriate space in your appli­ cation. It will serve as your perma­ nent student number. If you do not wish to provide this number, an al­ ternate student number will be as­ signed. However, please be aware the agency processing financial aid applications will not process any aid application which does not include the student’s social security number. Students who do not have social secu­ rity numbers or have lost their social security card should contact the So­ cial Security Administration prompt­ ly. Canadian applicants should not use their Social Insurance number. A 9-digit student number will be assigned to Canadians and other foreign students. Along with an application for admission, students must have sent to our Admissions Office an official high school transcript or GED scores, and an official transcript from each school where college or university credit has been earned or attempted. For students with more than 30 semester hours (or 45 quarter hours) of college credit, the high school transcript/GED will be used only to verify graduation. Official transcripts may be obtained from the respective high school’s guidance office or college’s College Registrar’s Office, transcripts must bear the registrar’s signature and raised seal or stamp of the college to be considered official. Transcripts must be mailed to the Admissions Office at Lake Superior State University directly from the issuing institution. Transcripts sent via facsimile machine are not considered official. All transcripts become the property of Lake Superior State University and are not returnable. Students whose names have changed since they attended another institution must indicate this when requesting transcripts from high schools or colleges. Each transcript should bear the student’s current name. The application and all transcripts should be submitted at least 30 days prior to the beginning of the semester of entry. However, if available spaces become filled, processing of applications will end at an earlier date. ADMISSIONS 40 �A transfer applicant denied admission because the college grade point average is less than 2.0 (on a scale of 4.0) is encouraged to reapply if, after taking additional college course work, the cumulative grade point average improves to greater than 2.0. CREDIT EVALUATIONS: Because the process is very time consuming, evaluation of transfer credit is not made until an applicant is accepted for admission. However, every effort is made to provide an evaluation of transfer credit as quickly as possible after admission. Students planning to transfer to Lake Superior State University can, by reviewing the course descriptions included in the Lake Superior State University catalog, arrive at a reasonably close approximation of the amount of transfer credit they may expect to receive. While making this informal evaluation, students should keep in mind transfer credit is granted for courses which are substantially equivalent in content, length, and prerequisites to the courses offered at this University. D grades will be transferred only for individuals meeting both of the following conditions: 1. having a 2.00 or greater cumulative grade point average; and AMERICAN COLLEGE TESTING (ACT) AH freshmen who enroll within 26 months of high school graduation and have not attended another college must take the American College Test. The results should be forwarded to Lake Superior State University (code number 2031) prior to registering for classes. United States residents applying for academic scholarships at Lake Superior State University must take the ACT no later than February of their senior year and have results forwarded to Lake Superior State University prior to the April 1 scholarship application deadline. Transfer students entering Lake Superior within 26 months of high school graduation and having less than 15 semester or 23 quarter hours of credit must also take the ACT prior to the beginning of classes in August. Transfer students required to take the ACT are encouraged to take it early enough for the results to be available to the University when they schedule their first semester’s classes. Canadian students who enter the University within 26 months of high school graduation are required to take the ACT. Completion of OAC credits does not exempt Ontario students from this requirement. ACT scores are used primarily for counseling and placement purposes and are not ordinarily used as admissions criteria. However, the ACT may be required prior to making an admissions decision if additional information is deemed necessary. The ACT is given nationally five times a year at many locations, including our campus. Information bulletins and registration forms for the ACT are available at high school counseling offices by writing American College Testing Program, P.O. Box 168, Iowa City, Iowa 52243, or by contacting the Lake Superior State University Counseling and Testing Center. Entering students required to submit their ACT results who have not taken the ACT during one of the five national test dates will take the ACT during orientation in August. ADMISSIONS 41 �2. upon initial application being eligible for, or being granted, unconditional admission as a full­ time student on the basis of their college or university academic records elsewhere. Courses with D grades accepted as transfer credit may not apply to all departments, Some academic departments do not accept transferred D grades as replacements for courses required as part of the departmental major. In those cases, the departmental major courses involved must be repeated. However, courses not accepted by a department may be applied as elective credit where possible. Initial transfer credit evaluations indicating which Lake Superior State University courses and how many credits will be granted to the student are completed by either the Admissions or Registrar’s offices. These initial evaluations are subject to review and possible modification by the head of the academic department offering the equivalent course. The academic department head’s decision on courses and amounts of transfer credit granted may be appealed by the student to the Vice President for Academic Affairs. ELECTIVE CREDIT: If a course taken at another institution is not offered at the University, elective credit may be granted for that course. Elective credits may be applied toward the number of credits required to receive a degree but may not be used to satisfy any specific course requirement. PROVISIONAL CREDIT: Credit earned at any institution not listed as accredited in the American Council of Education’s publication, Accredited Institutions of Post- secondary Education, is granted provisionally. Only after students demonstrate satisfactory progress in their chosen academic programs at Lake Superior State University do provisional credits become part of students’ permanent records. MACRAO AGREEMENT: Community college graduates granted admission to the University who possess baccalaureate-oriented associate of arts or science degrees, with the MACRAO stamp on their transcripts, will be recognized as having completed the general education requirements at Lake Superior State University. Graduates of Michigan and other community colleges with other associate degrees, e.g., applied science, applied business, applied technology, and applied health will be required to complete all remaining Lake Superior State University general education requirements. Students who transfer to Lake Superior State University will be required to satisfy all conditions of their selected majors and minors as well as degree requirements. The minimum number of credits to complete an academic major at Lake Superior State University is 30 semester hours. Some departments require more. The minimum amount of credits in a major that must be earned at Lake Superior State University varies. Before enrolling, students should contact the academic department which includes the intended major to determine this amount. RESIDENCY REQUIREMENT: There is no limit on the number of transfer credit from other institutions. However, bachelor’s degree candidates must earn at least 32 of their final 40 ADMISSIONS 42 �credits and at least 50 percent of their departmental required 300/400 level credits in Lake Superior State University courses. Regional Center students must earn at least 32 of their final 64 credits and at least 50 percent of their departmental required 300/400 level credits in Lake Superior State University courses. Associate degree and certificate candidates must earn 16 of their final 20 credits in Lake Superior State University courses. FORMER STUDENTS Former full-time Lake Superior State University students who interrupted their enrollments for one or more semesters, except summer, must apply for readmission prior to the semester of intended reentry. Students apply by obtaining a re­ admission application from the Admissions Office. There is no application processing fee for students seeking readmission. However, applicants who have attended another college since leaving Lake Superior State University must have official transcripts sent from the college attended and meet the terms of the University’s transfer student admissions policy. GUEST STUDENTS A student who is regularly enrolled at another college or university may be admitted to Lake Superior State University as a guest student. A guest admission is valid for only one semester. However, under exten- uating circumstances this may be extended for one additional semester by submitting another guest application. Any student intending to enroll for more than one semester must submit an application for admission as a transfer student. Guest student applications may be obtained from the Admissions Office at Lake Superior State University or any other college or university in Michigan. Guest students assume full responsibility for determining whether courses taken at Lake Superior State University will apply to their programs of study at the college from which they intend to graduate. CANADIAN STUDENTS Lake Superior State University welcomes applications from Canada. Ontario students applying on the basis of their high school records are evaluated on their grade point average in academic subjects only. The grade point average for each applicant is recalculated, starting with grade nine and including only academic subjects. The Admissions Office uses two grading scales, shown below, when evaluating an Ontario secondary school applicant. OAC and A level courses are considered more demanding and their content more appropriate preparation for university-level courses than are G level courses. B level courses are never included in the recalculated academic grade point average. ADMISSIONS 43 �Grading Scales for Evaluation A Level & OAC G Level Equivalent Letter Grade A B C D F 90-99 80-89 70-79 60-69 50-59 80-99 70-79 60-69 50-59 If a list of the Ontario secondary school OAC, A and G level courses included in this academic subjects average is not available at your guidance office, one may be obtained by writing the Dean of Admissions at Lake Superior State University. Secondary factors which may also influence the admission decision are the number of academic courses an applicant has completed, the trend from year to year of the applicant’s grades, and recommendations. A report of ACT scores is required from all Ontario secondary school students. ACT scores are used for counseling and placement purposes, rather than as a factor in the admissions decision. Additional information for Ontario secondary school students is available in Informational Handbook for Ontario Students and Guidance Counselors, published by the Admissions Office. Canadian applicants from provinces other than Ontario are also welcome and will be evaluated on the basis of the education system in their provinces. ONTARIO GRADE 13/OAC COURSES Students who completed grade 13 or OAC courses before September, 1990 receive transfer credit at the University for each course in which a final mark of at least 60 percent was earned. Transfer credit will not be granted for OAC courses completed after that date. However, completion of OAC courses prepares some students to earn credit through testing. Up to 30 semester hours of credit may be earned by achieving satisfactory scores on CLEP tests and departmental examinations given on the campus. If information about CLEP tests and departmental tests offered by the University is not available at your high school guidance office, please contact the Admissions Office. FOREIGN STUDENTS (NON-CANADIANS) Six months to one year before the beginning of the desired semester of entry, the student should write to the Dean of Admissions requesting application materials. Applicants must satisfy entrance requirements comparable to those required for AllUnited States students, credentials written in a language other than English must be accompanied by certified English translations. No student should plan to come to Lake Superior State University with less than sufficient funds in the hope of obtaining financial assistance upon arrival. No foreign student scholarships are available, and ADMISSIONS • 44 �employment opportunities for foreign students are restricted by government regulations. A notarized financial statement will be required before Form 1-20 (required to obtain a student visa) will be issued. This statement must include the amount of money available per year and the source(s). Inclusion of false information in the financial statement is grounds for dismissal. In addition to the financial statement the student’s sponsor or sponsoring agency must provide a letter assuming responsibility for all of the student’s educational and living expenses while studying in the U.S.A. Applicants should not consider themselves admitted to the University until they have provided all documents which the University requires and received an official letter granting admission. Following the letter granting admission, the Certificate of Eligibility ( Form 1-20) will be sent, as required by the US Immigration and Naturalization Service. A health record form will be sent to students granted admission. This form must be completed and returned to the University’s Health Service Office prior to registration. Foreign students are required to purchase a health and accident insurance policy for each year in residence, This cost is approximately $600 per year for a single student. The policy is offered by GM Underwriters, Inc. The University’s English language proficiency requirement for admission may be satisfied in any of three ways: 1. By achieving a score of 550 or above on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) administered in most countries. Information regarding this test can be obtained by writing to: TOEFL, Box 6151, Princeton, New Jersey, 08541-6151, U.S.A. or from any United States Information Service Center; 2.

By completing two years of study at a school, college, or university located in an English speaking country. PART-TIME ENROLLMENT Students wishing to attend on a parttime basis may enroll for up to eleven credits per semester in courses for which they have sufficient academic background. Unless students have special permission from their principals, part-time enrollment is limited to those whose high school classes have already graduated, Part-time students not seeking degrees or certificates, are not required to apply formally for admission prior to enrollment. A course registration form must be completed during the registration period for each semester of attendance. These forms are available through the University’s Scheduling and Continuing Education offices. Should a part-time student later desire full-time enrollment (12 or more credits per semester), or elect to seek degree/certificate status, the ADMISSIONS 45 �student must submit a completed application for admission with a $20 non-refundable application processing fee, have the required official transcripts sent to the Admissions Office and meet all admission requirements for Lake Superior State University. Part-time students are not officially assigned to faculty advisors. However, they are encouraged to seek assistance in selecting courses from the appropriate academic departments. Some who have been denied admission are permitted by the Admissions Committee to attend the University as non-admitted, part-time students, then later ask to be reconsidered for admission. The grades earned as part-time students become an additional factor when reconsidering the students’ applications for admission. It is the responsibility of students electing to attend the University parttime, seeking reconsideration for admission, to make certain they are aware of all the conditions for reconsideration the Admissions Committee has established. Upon request, the Admissions Office will provide a sheet titled "Reconsideration for Admission to Lake Superior State University (LSSU) on the Basis of Part-Time Study" which details the requirements attached to this opportunity. The requirements for using part-time enrollment at the University as a method for being reconsidered for admission are: 1. In one semester, the student must take nine to eleven credits of academic subjects only. Recre- ational activities, skill courses such as keyboarding, and remedial courses such as intermediate algebra are not considered academic courses for this purpose. 2. The student must earn a final grade of at least "C" in every course, and may not withdraw from or drop a course after the standard drop-add period. A student receiving an "I" grade will not be eligible for reconsideration until the "I" has been changed to a standard grade (A, B, or C) by the instructor. 3. If a student has been academically dismissed from another college or university, at least 12 months must have passed before the start of the semester for which reconsideration for admission is being sought. As soon as the grades are available for the semester, the student may make an appointment to see the Dean of Admissions to be reconsidered for admission. CONCURRENT ENROLLMENT FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS Recognizing some talented high school students may benefit from taking university courses while still enrolled full-time in high school, Lake Superior State University permits selected high school students to take specific courses at the University on a part-time basis. Prior to a student registering for any class a Concurrent Enrollment Request form must be completed by the student’s parent. The form is available and must be returned to the Scheduling Office. ADMISSIONS 46 �A student must possess an appropriate academic record. Generally, a 3.0 or higher grade point average or demonstrated exceptional aptitude in specific subject areas is required to be eligible for concurrent enrollment. A student no longer enrolled in high school whose high school class has not yet graduated is ineligible to enroll as part-time students until their high school class has graduated. SCHEDULING PROGRAMS activities help students become acquainted with the campus and community and provide a basis for a smooth transition to university work. Included in the activities are lectures and conferences covering various phases of academic and extra-curricular activities, placement meetings with academic advisors and faculty members (for those who did not attend the July program). A separate August orientation program is provided for transfer students. PLACEMENT TESTING FRESHMEN Each July, the University offers the Fall Class Scheduling and Parents’ Program. The program enables new freshmen to take placement tests, meet with academic advisors, schedule fall semester classes and buy books. It also provides an opportunity for parents to meet University administrators and, through an informative program, gain a better understanding of the array of services Lake Superior State University provides. TRANSFERS Transfer students attend the Transfer Student Scheduling Program in the spring. Participants take mathematics placement test, meet with academic advisors, and schedule classes. Students unable to attend must arrange individual appointments to meet with academic advisors and complete testing and scheduling.

All students (enrolled for 12 hours or more) attending Lake Superior State University must comply with this housing policy: All unmarried, non-veteran students (enrolled for 12 hours or more) who are within twenty-seven calendar months of the date of their graduation from high school (for this purpose, all high school graduation dates shall be assumed to be June 1 in any given year) must reside in a University residence hall, with the following exceptions: STUDENTS living with their parents within reasonable commuting distance. STUDENTS exempted by the housing director when residence hall space is filled. STUDENTS with unusual financial or health problems who are exempted by the executive vicepresident. To permit adjustments to local housing problems, the University reserves the right to assign all students within the residence halls. Room, residence hall, and apartment preferences are considered according to the dates of receipt of application, with freshmen ordinarily given priority in residence hall assignments and upperclassmen being given priority in apartment assignments. The University recognized that the need for an exception to the policy stated above may occasionally arise. Student requests for permission to live off campus will be considered by the executive vice-president. Should a student request permission to live off campus for financial reasons, the executive vice-president shall apply the following criteria to his or her request: STUDENT SERVICES • 52 �" FINANCIAL hardship" shall be defined for this purpose as a situation in which the total resources of the student and family added to the total financial aid available from the University do not equal the dollar amount budgeted by the financial aids office as the minimum required for on-campus residency. In such a situation, the student will be considered to face two alternatives: a.) withdrawing from the dormitory or b.) withdrawing from the University. AN EXAMPLE OF a student who might be released from the dormitory under the above definition would be one whose financial situation changed suddenly during the year (perhaps due to the death of a parent) and who applies for assistance, after the aids program is depleted.

The University Board of Regents, in obtaining this loan agreed to provide for maximum occupancy and use of the buildings. As a result, the University reserves the right to transfer students to the Townhouses or the Student Village during the year. To avoid unnecessary inconvenience, such transfers are normally made between semesters. COUNSELING/ TESTING ALL STUDENTS are encour­ aged to avail themselves of the counseling and testing services. Several professional counselors are available at the student counseling center to assist students with their academic, personal, or vocational problems.

Once financial aid is suspended, both the GPA and credit completion criteria must be met in subsequent semesters before reinstatement of aid is possible. If completion of "1" grades or other record changes warrant a reinstatement, a written notice from the Registrar’s Office must be presented to the Financial Aid Office by the end of the semester following suspension of aid. Summer school attendance may be used by the student to remove grade point or credit earned deficiencies.

The departmental degree audit for a student’s major or minor specifies all required courses which have been or must be completed. The audit must be signed by the department head of the department offering the major or minor program. Course substitutions and waivers of departmental degree program requirements may be granted only by the head of the department offering the major or minor program. Exceptions to specific General Education requirements may be granted only by the Scholastic Standards Committee. Such exceptions are infrequently made. A petition for exceptions to General Education requirements is initiated with the Registrar.

Both require a concern for the truthful and accurate use of language - for truth, indeed, rather than indifferent "information.” Both require an exercise of feeling and imagination as much as of thought. Both are concerned to discover and encourage whatever creative aptitudes may be latent in each student. Our aim is knowledge, not pedantry; our prime responsibility is to foster the free mind, the exploring spirit -and to insure them every reasonable liberty of expression. Since it is the purpose of many studies to remind us that we are neither apes, nor ants, such a purpose may be better served in a small community, such as ours, avowedly dedicated to the pursuit of a liberal education, than in some large institutions whose very size prohibits individual attention or concern. A four-year curriculum leads to the bachelor of arts degree in English Language and Literature or to the bachelor of arts or bachelor of science degree in history. A suggested curriculum is outlined; however, students should plan indi- vidual programs of study in consultation either with assigned advisers, or with department head. Electives are available throughout the University; in liberal arts these include not only additional courses in English and history or sequences in the modem foreign languages, but also in speech, journalism, drama, music, art, and philosophy. Leading authorities recognize that a sound liberal arts education is often the most satisfactory preparation for successful training and accomplishment in many vocational and professional areas, Upon completion of their degree program, students will be prepared either to pursue career in fields such as communications, government, and ARTS & LETTERS•95 �industry, or to embark upon graduate studies which will qualify them for professions in fields such as teaching. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS: To qualify for admission as freshmen, applicants must be graduates of accredited secondary schools with above average standing in their classes. Secondary school preparation should include a fouryear curriculum of at least 15 units of acceptable entrance credits. Three units of English are required. BACHELOR OF ARTS ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE REQUIREMENTS: Students must complete, in addition to general education requirements, 70 semester hours of credit in the courses specified below, or tneir equivalents, plus sufficient additional hours of free electives to make up a require total of 124 hours.

BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES prepare students for careers in research and in applied aspects of life sciences as well as providing a background in biology for a career or further studies in allied sciences. Four-year programs lead to bachelor of science degrees in biological sciences, fisheries and wildlife management, environmental science and medical technology; bachelor of arts degree in biology; and two associate degrees: natural resources technology and water quality technology. Students electing to pursue four-year degree programs generally have the opportunity of changing their majors to one of the other biology degree programs without losing credits or having to make up deficiencies during the first two years of study. Students working toward these four-year degree programs have the same basic first year of courses. BACHELOR OF ARTS/SCIENCE Biology Lake Superior State University is ideally located for field studies of terrestrial and aquatic resources. Students electing a variety of courses in ecology and applied ecology can qualify for state and federal positions in fisheries biology, wildlife biology, and other related fields. Laboratory courses give students knowledge and techniques necessary for many technical positions with industry and governmental agencies. Students interested in research positions in environmental science, marine biology, microbiology, physiology, fish and wildlife biology and numerous other life sciences can receive a strong undergraduate background at Lake Superior State University that will enable them to pursue a career or graduate education elsewhere. Admission requirements for professional and graduate universities vary throughout the United States and Canada. Students planning post-baccalaureate education should plan with their advisor to insure that these requirements are met. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS: To qualify for admission as fresh­ men, applicants must be graduates of BIOLOGY & CHEMISTRY 102 �accepted secondary schools with above average standing in their class. Their secondary school preparation should include a four-year curriculum of at least 15 units of acceptable entrance credits. The following subjects must be included in these credits: one unit of beginning algebra, one unit of advanced algebra, one unit of chemistry and three units of English. In addition, one biology unit and one unit of geometry or trigonometry are highly recommended. Students not meeting these requirements may enter on a provisional basis. OAC students are required to take departmental competency examinations before credit will be granted in biology and chemistry. Substitution for courses required as part of biology degree requirements must be approved by the department head. Honors Program This program is a research sequence open to biology, and environmental science majors with a minimum overall GPA of 3.5 through the first semester of the junior year. Majors electing this sequence will select an instructor as their supervisor. An undergraduate research project will be outlined in consultation with the supervising instructor and submitted to the department for approval. The outline must be approved before the first semester of the senior year. At the end of the seventh week of the spring semester during the senior year, the students will forward an abstract of their work to the department head and during the tenth week of the same semester will submit the final copy of their research papers in publishable form, for departmental approval, All grades for this sequence will be deferred until the final semester. Eight credit hours of honors credit will be substituted for 8 hours of electives upon successful completion of the research sequence. The special problem sequence will not be open to students electing the honors program research sequence. The completed research may be used for Senior Thesis. Independent Study In biology, chemistry, environmental science: Students desiring to enroll in BL, CH, EV Special Problem courses will be granted permission to take the course(s) provided the following conditions are in existence at the time of petition: (A) junior or senior standing; (B) With overall GPA of at least 2.5; (C) No I grades on transcript. Students meeting these requirements must petition depart­ ment faculty with a detailed onepage outline of work and date to be completed. Request for more than four hours will result in a propor­ tionate reduction in a 17-hour load. The faculty preceptor must endorse the petition with his signature and the date the project is to be completed.

Pre-professional: Medicine, Optometry, Dentistry, Veterinary Medicine Professional schools, including medical, dental, optrometry, and veterinary schools, typically do not yecifically rquire any college degree, let alone a specific degree in biology. However, applicants to professional schools are seldom accepted with ony three years of undergraduate credt. Further, since career goals often change, pre­ professional students at LSSU are encouraged to remain four years and complete the requirements for a baccalaureate degree.

By virtue of our small size and student to faculty ratio, we can write an indepth letter based upon our personal knowledge of each student’s abilities and performance rather than merely using grade point average and MAT, VAT, DAT or OCAT scores. These letters, which take into account the aspects of the student’s personality that relate to their potential as a medical professional, are highly regarded by the various professional schools in Michigan as well as in the province of Ontario. the Lake Superior State University Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts degree in Biology meet the most stringent entrance requirements. Therefore, although other curricula may be pursued as pre-professional degrees, most students elect to strive toward a degree in biology. BOARD: The pre-professional advisory board consists of representatives from the disciplines of biology and chemistry including two pre-professional advisors. This committee serves to aid the progress of all of our pre-professional students throughout their undergraduate carrers. In addition to assessing a student’s progress at the Pre-Pharmacy (Transfer Program) must have a cumulative grade point average of 2.00 as well as grades of C or better in sciences and Students entering mathematics. Ferris State University with one year of high school physics may pass a physics proficiency examination in lieu of the year of college Physics. If the latter courses are not taken, a sequence of humanities or behavioral science courses is recommended. The two-year course of study outlined below is a guide for those who plan to apply for admission and transfer to a three-year professional harmacy curriculum at another stitution. In Michigan, such ograms are offered at Ferris State diversity, University of Michigan, and Wayne State University. For further information and planning, students are advised to consult catalogs from these or other institutions. Generally, application for admission to a professional pharmacy curriculum must be sub­ mitted after completing the first year of pre-pharmacy.

The computer has moved out of the back room of large corporations and research institutions into the front offices and living rooms of modem society. Computer scientists work at the leading edge of this revolution, developing software systems that allow us to utilize the electronic hardware the engineers have built. The work is challenging, and often frustrating, but is ultimately very rewarding. THE DEPARTMENT offers a Bachelor of Science In Computer and Mathematical Sciences that combines a study of digital computing with the study of mathematical concepts. The resulting program provides students with considerable versatility and potential for future endeavors in which practical quantitative skills are important. A MINOR in computer science is also available to provide excellent support and value to most majors offered at the University. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS: To qualify for admission to the program in computer and mathematical sciences, applicants must satisfy University admission requirements as described in the Admissions section of this Catalog. (This information is also included in the Viewbook.) Secondary school academic subjec should include: Three units English, two units of algebra, o\ unit of geometry. It is strongi. recommended that applicants have a fourth unit of college-preparatory mathematics which includes one-half unit of trigonometry. A unit of chemistry or physics is also recommended. Completion of the program may require more than four years for students who do not meet all entrance requirements. For students with college-level achievement, the opportunity will be offered, by means of examination, to obtain course credit or placement into an advanced course.

Our present environment is the result of the cumulative interaction of many dynamic physical, chemical and biological processes. GEOLOGY deals with the dynamic earth, its physical makeup, and its physical and organic history. It involves the study of changes which have taken place and the forces which cause, and are now causing, these changes. By drawing on concepts of biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics geologists attempt to understand the physical environment in which we live and from which we derive most of the natural resources essential to our civilization. Our civilization requires many non-renewable natural resources in order to survive. Since the turn of the century, we have used more and more of these resources at an everincreasing rate and now have critical supply problems. Our demands upon the environment have significantly changed the earth around us, and, if we are to survive, we must live within the constraints imposed by Geologists study and nature. understand these constraints. They must apply their knowledge to achieve harmony between the human race and its environment.

Increases in the demand for energy fuels and mineral products result in an expansion of opportunities for graduates in geology. Students contemplating careers in geology should, upon graduating, expect to travel, often to remote and uninhabited areas. Most of the jobs entail outdoor field work, often under difficult conditions. Other new fields are now requiring geologists, such as NASA, EPA, and companies and agencies involved with environmental concerns. The geological environment of Lake Superior State University provides unexcelled opportunities for field study of classic sections illustrating Precambrian stratigraphy, structure, intrusions, and metamorphism and undisturbed Paleozoic sedimentary formations. Proximity to deposits of iron, copper, uranium, dolomite and the Michigan oil and gas fields as well as other minerals is an additional advantage. Students are eligible to participate in the department’s active research in micropaleontology (conodonts).

ENGINEERING TRANSFER: The first two years of a professional engineering degree may be taken at LSSU if you are well prepared in mathematics. It is recommended that you contact the engineering school that you would like to transfer to early in your freshman year at LSSU. Each school of engineering has somewhat different requirements which will affect the exact program you take at LSSU. Transfer Students: An evaluation of all previous course work will be made upon receipt of application. Transfer of LSSU credits to Most engineering schools, engineering technology credits earned at LSSU will not transfer to professional engineering schools due to the mathematics requirements of each program. Entrance Requirements: To qualify for admission as freshmen in engineering technology, applicants BACHELOR OF SCIENCE Automated Systems Engineering Technology THIS PROGRAM combines the disciplines of mechanical, electrical, computer, and manufacturing engineering technologies in preparing students for modem manufacturing and production career responsibilities. The capstone program assumes a two-year background in an appropriate engineering technology or pre-engineering curriculum. Graduates will be prepared to design, integrate, and program various systems for automated manu­ facturing. Technical courses in the final two years will be based upon the student’s previous background and are designed to produce a well-rounded and engineering technologist. versatile Students from community colleges with a background in an engineering technology curriculum can usually transfer directly into the third year of the automated systems program. Most community college programs in Michigan have transfer curriculum agreements with LSSU.

The athletic trainer works closely with physicians and other health care professionals in order to provide today’s athletes with the best medical care possible. Those who pursue a career in athletic training may seek employment on the high school, college, or professional sport level. In addition, the athletic trainer may be employed in sports medicine and health fitness clinics, which have increased in numbers during the past decade. All the above mentioned positions usually require certification by the National Athletic Trainers’ Association. Students completing the concentration at Lake Superior State University will be more marketable in the field of exercise science and eligible for a variety of graduate programs in athletic training and sports medicine throughout the country. Any student wishing to achieve eligibility to sit for the National Athletic Trainers’ Association certification examination will receive individual guidance in that direction.

However, all students enrolled in a four-year degree granting program are required to take two different credit hours of recreation activity. Those enrolled in a one, two, or three-year terminal curriculum are required to take variable credits of recreational activity. Students fulfill the two-credit hour requirement by earning two different recreational activity credits. The faculty offer a varied program of activities. Courses include badminton, bowling, volleyball, swimming, weight training, dance, backpacking, outdoor survival, rock climbing and rappelling, racquetball, jogging, orienteering, canoeing, soccer, self defense, and individualized physical fitness. Physical education, intramurals, and athletics play an important part in the lives of the students. Students are encouraged to participate in activities that will provide a carry-over into later life. Preparation for a lifetime of recreational activity is a major goal of the university. THE JAMES NORRIS PHYSICAL EDUCATION CENTER provides facilities for intercollegiate basketball, wrestling, hockey, volleyball, softball and tennis. It features an ice arena, three gymnasiums, swimming and diving pools, handball-racquetball courts, classrooms, dance studio, shooting range, wrestling and weight training rooms, offices for recreational activity, recreation studies and criminal justice faculty and athletic staff.

SOCIAL SCIENCES 213 13 �POLITICAL SCIENCE Political Science is the systematic study of government and politics. Since government and politics are round at many levels— international, national, state, and local—and all over the world, political science has many facets. All of these facets receive attention in the political science program at Lake Superior State University. The goal of the curriculum is to prepare students interested in government and politics for rewarding careers and lifetimes of learning and involvement. To best achieve this goal, three distinct concentrations or tracks are available for students of political science: 1. general political science 2 pre-law, 3. public administration. Each concentration has been designed to provide a combination of knowledge and skills that is uniquely appropriate for those with particular career goals. However, choosing one concentration over the others does not limit a student to one particular career path—each of the concentrations provides a solid grounding in political science. BACHELOR OF ARTS/SCIENCE POLITICAL SCIENCE - GENERAL The general political science concentration is designed to provide a broad education in political science. It is most appropriate for students who plan to attend graduate school in political science and for those with an interest in government and politics who wish to get a broad, liberal education as preparation for a career in business, government, or journalism. Students who continue their education in graduate school most often pursue careers as professors, researchers, consultants, or government officials. Students who do not pursue graduate study choose from a wide variety of career options in business, government, and journalism.

Students who choose this option are often interested in careers as attorneys, prosecutors, or judges. It should be noted that this is not a mandatory pre-law curriculum; it is a curriculum for pre-law students who have a special interest in government and politics. Noteworthy features of this concentration are a special course on the nature of legal careers and how to prepare for them; two courses in legal research and writing that provide students with a head start in using a law library and in conducting legal research; and a well-designed combination of support courses in logic, debate, writing, accounting, and research.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE POLITICAL SCIENCE - PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION The public administration concentration is most appropriate for students who plan to work in biic capacity in public agencies or nonprofit organiz careers missions. Students who choose this option Me pr P,8-■ of public service. Such careers may be pursued through positions in SOCIAL SCIENCES 217 : �government agencies at the local, state or provincial, and national levels. Other positions may be found in nonprofit organizations involved in public concerns, such as Common Cause, the Environmental Defense Fund, and the Michigan Health Council. Some of these careers of public service may be pursued with only a bachelor’s degree. Others may require completion of a master’s degree in public administration or a related field. Senior public administration students will complete an internship as part of their education. Internships allow students to apply the knowledge they have gained in the classroom in an on-the-job setting. They are also valuable for creating a record of experience that will impress prospec­ tive employers and help the student become established in a career. Internships, which are arranged with the assistance of an advisor, are available with local, state or provincial, and federal agencies.

Students entering law school choose undergraduate majors from a wide variety of fields. However, a pre-law concentration is offered in the political science curriculum, and various law courses are offered as a part of the legal assistant studies program at Lake Superior State University. See appropriate political science and legal assistant studies program listings, which are part of the Social Sciences Department. Students interested in a legal career should consult with the pre-law advisor, Professor Carol Andary, early and often during their undergraduate studies. The pre-law advisor is located in the Social Sciences Department, Pre-law planning based on consultation with the advisor will allow the student to make an informed choice of curriculum and of elective courses that will help with the development of the skills mentioned below. The pre-law advisor will also provide pre-law students with a variety of materials about admission to law school, the law school admission test, and careers in law. A student’s undergraduate grade point average and his or her score on the Law School Admission Test (LSAT) are the two most important criteria for admission to law school. Details on admission policies of law schools throughout the country, and the degree to which these schools may use other criteria in addition to grade point average and LSAT score, may be found in the Pre-Law Handbook. The Pre-Law Handbook is published by the Law School SOCIAL SCIENCES • 219 �Admission Council/Law School Admission Services and is the official law school guide, This handbook may be examined by contacting the pre-law advisor, or may be purchased in many book stores. Although there is no prescribed major which must be taken for admission to law school, some curricula may be better than others in helping students develop skills necessary for admission to law school and for a successful legal career. A broad and challenging undergraduate curriculum is the best preparation for law school. The Pre- Law Handbook stresses that a student’s undergraduate education should lead to the development of skills in three areas: (1) the ability to understand and express oneself well in words, (2) the development of a critical understanding of the human institutions and values with which the law deals, and (3) the development of creative power in thinking. A pre-law student should consider the need to develop these skills in selecting his or her curriculum. In addition, students should think about whether the curriculum they choose can provide an alternative to a career in law should they eventually choose not to pursue a legal career. NOTES SOCIAL SCIENCES 220 �PSYCHOLOGY BACHELOR OF ARTS/BACHELOR OF SCIENCES PSYCHOLOGY Psychology is the systematic study of behavior and mental processes in humans and animals. The major provides students with exposure to the areas that define contemporary scientific psychology. The psychology major helps a student develop analytical thinking and communication skills which are applicable to a variety of careers. Many psychology majors pursue post baccalaureate degrees. Psychology electives enable students to construct a program of study consistent with their professional goals. The Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degrees differ only in the nature of the cognate; science classes or foreign language classes, respectively.

By design a relatively small institution, Lake Superior State University strives to carry out its primary mission by realizing a collegial community in which all its constituencies share in the teaching, research, and regional service activities of the Institution. In this supportive environment students, staff, faculty, and administrators demonstrate high regard for one another as valued mem­ bers of the community, thus providing opportunities for emotional and social maturation as well as intellectual growth. All educational programming at Lake Superior State University rests on an acknowledged commitment to an integrated relation­ ship between the liberal arts and professional/technical fields. That relationship fosters the development of students as contribut­ ing citizens, viable professionals, and fulfilled individuals, who think critically, appreciate creativity, have problem-solving skills, and express continuing intellectual curiosity about themselves, others, and the world around them. The University's international setting complements its efforts to assist students in the expansion of their perspectives. Lake Superior State University's primary mission, thus, draws its validity from the knowledge that today's students — tomorrow s leaders - will best serve humanity by having: the necessary infor­ mation to understand the past; the critical thinking skills to assess contemporary problems; and the enlightened courage o ace w enthusiasm the uncertainty of the future. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The primary purpose of the University is to educate and train young people for rewarding careers and lives of meaning. We: Regard students as mature, responsible individuals engaged in the processes of self government which are essential in a democratic society. Teach individuals, not groups; with a close-working relationship between Each instructors and students, student has a faculty advisor and may also consult the counseling service. Educate students for well-rounded lives; not only intellectual competence, but physical, social, and cultural development. The program of general education includes courses such as recreational activities, natural sciences, social sciences, English language and literature, and the humanities. Athletic events, clubs, dramatic and cultural presentations, and student self-government organizations offer a wide variety of co-curricular activities. Teach fundamentals and their application. In modem society knowledge increases so rapidly that specific facts may become obsolete even before they are widely learned. Close attention to fundamentals is necessary. The University attempts to inculcate habits of learning, thinking and doing which, thoughtfully modified, will endure for a lifetime. Encourage initiative, self criticism, and intellectual curiosity; learn by doing. Education in fundamental knowledge should be supplemented by laboratory and field work in order that university preparation closely resembles conditions in Students professional careers, should develop lifelong intellectual curiosity and discovery, become constructive critics of themselves and of society, and learn to prize creative, original thinking.

NOTES EQUAL OPPORTUNITY • 15 �ACADEMIC The Academic Policies and regulations of Lake Superior State University which are intended to guide students through an orderly and successful pursuit of their academic goals, describe the necessary actions and procedures for which students are responsible. They outline the students’ expectations and rights while enrolled as a university student. Advisors, department heads and personnel of university offices will help students to understand these policies and regulations; however, it is each student’s individual responsibility to comply with them. THE ACADEMIC YEAR ^ake Superior State University is on a semester system. (Previous to Fall Semester 1991 it was on a quarter system.) The academic year consists of a Fall Semester (September through December) and a Spring Semester (January through April or early May). Fall and Spring semesters consist of fifteen weeks of instruction followed by a week for final examinations. During the Summer Semester (May through early August) most courses are conducted during an eight week period which includes two days for final examinations. Specific dates for each semester are found in the University Calendar located elsewhere in this book. ACADEMIC CREDIT In a lecture/recitation type course students receive one credit for each fifteen hours of classroom instruction. (For example, a threecredit course of this type might be scheduled 9:00 to 9:50 AM Monday, Wednesday and Friday. An "hour" period is usually only 50 minutes long, with ten minutes allowed for students to move from class to class.) Courses including laboratory, field work or other non-lecture formats may be scheduled for more than one hour per week per credit. In general, one credit requires an average of three hours of the student’s time per In week for the semester, lecture/recitation courses this would normally be accomplished with one hour of classroom attendance and two hours of preparation or study. An average student credit load per semester is sixteen credits. One hundred twenty-four credits is the minimum number required for a Some baccalaureate degree, programs require more than this minimum. CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS Students are assigned to one of four class levels as follows: 0 to 25 credits = Freshman; 26 to 55 credits = Sophomore; 56 to 87 = Junior; 88+ = Senior. ACADEMIC POLICIES • 16 �POLICIES STUDENT CURRICULUM CHOICE AND ADVISING Students are encouraged to select a major program upon admission to the University, The academic department offering the chosen program is called the "major department". The school dean of the major department assigns an academic advisor to each of the students. An advisor assists students in course selection each semester, in understanding program and university requirements and regulations, in evaluating academic progress, and in other matters related to successful academic achievement. Lake Superior State University is firmly committed to providing students personalized advising and support. Students are encouraged to actively seek help from their instructors, advisors, department chair, Division of General Studies, Counseling Center, and any other faculty, staff or office which they believe might be of assistance. The Division of General Studies provides academic tutoring as does the Native American Center and academic departments. These services are usually provided without charge to enrolled students. Additional information concerning advising services is listed under testing and counseling service in this catalog. Students who are undecided about their choice of a major program are classified as majoring in Liberal Arts, an associate degree program, and assigned a provisional academic advisor until another major is chosen. Students may change their major curriculum by processing a Curriculum Change Card through The the Registrar’s Office. Registrar’s Office, Counseling Center and departmental offices can provide students with the card and instructions for processing it. Curriculum Change cards must be filed with the Registrar’s Office each time a curriculum change is made so that advisor materials, grade reports and graduation information will be sent to the correct school and advisor. Students will be assigned a new advisor when a curriculum change is made. Students may request a change of advisor by asking the dean of their school to make such change. Students who are provisionally admitted to Lake Superior State University through the Division of General Studies will be assigned to an academic advisor from within that Division until the student meets the exiting criteria which enables them to enter their chosen major unconditionally. SEMESTER COURSE SELECTION Each semester the Registrar/ Scheduling Office publishes a Course Schedule listing all courses ACADEMIC POLICIES • 17 �offered during the semester along with related information such as days and hour of course offering, instructor and the final examination time. This booklet is available several weeks before the semester begins and contains timely and important information for students. Students are responsible for reading each semester’s Course Schedule and adhering to its instructions. Course Schedules and scheduling materials are available from all departmental offices and the Scheduling Office. After academic advising, students schedule courses by submitting required materials to the Registrar/ Scheduling Office according to the time schedule described in the Course Schedule. After scheduling courses, students have a limited period of time to pay tuition and related fees. At the end of this period students will be dropped from classes for non-payment. Several factors assist or limit student course selections, Placement examinations for mathematics, English, and reading are administered by the Counseling and Testing Center located in Brown These examinations are Hall. required of all students before they schedule their first courses in mathematics or English. Maximum student credit load is twenty credits per semester, with the exception that students having a 3.00 cumulative grade point average may take additional credit with written approval of the dean of their school. Students on academic probation and enrolled in Division of General Studies should not take more than fifteen credits per semester. Prerequisites: Students must satisfy prerequisites, and any other stated conditions before enrolling in a course or have permission from an instructor to waive the prerequisites. Enrollment in a course may be revoked (with an N grade) if it is found during the regular drop period that the proper prerequisites have not been met. Responsibility rests with students to be certain that they have the approved prerequisites. Permission to take any course out of sequence is seldom granted even to exceptional students, since electing a course for which one is not prepared imposes an additional burden not reflected in the total number of credits being carried. Students must earn passing grades in a prerequisite course before taking the next course in sequence. For some courses a C (2.00) grade or better is required. Exceptions may be made only by school dean or the course instructor. Students who receive a D grade in a prerequisite course or a course in the major are strongly advised (and may be required) to repeat the course, and raise the D, before continuing. Repeats: Students may not repeat a course by enrollment or examination if they have passed a course for which the repeated course is a prerequisite. Exceptions may be granted by the school dean with the concurrence of the Registrar. Changes in course schedule: A period of time is provided at the beginning of each semester for students to add or delete courses. Courses deleted during this period will not appear on a student’s permanent record (transcript). The add/delete period for a full semester course begins on the first day of the semester, and ends on the sixth university business day. For courses which span less than a full semester, a shorter add/delete period may be established. During the add/delete period schedule changes are initiated ACADEMIC POLICIES • 18 �at the Registrar/Scheduling Office which maintain current records of class availability. In some cases faculty permission will be required Detailed for course changes, information on adding or deleting classes is provided to students in the Course Schedule booklet each semester. A student’s add or withdrawal from a course is not officially completed unless the appropriate form is filed with the Registrar/Scheduling Office. Students are advised to retain the official receipt they are given upon completion of an add or drop procedure. Late Adds: Students requesting to add courses after the end of the add/delete period must obtain permission and a special form for this purpose from the Registrar’s Office, obtain the written approval of the instructor, and then return the form to the Registrar’s Office. A service charge will be charged for this procedure. Students are responsible for all class work missed previous to adding a class. Non-attendance at first class: Students scheduled for a course, but not attending the first class meeting, may be deleted by the instructor during the delete period. In this case, the instructor shall submit a delete form and notify the student. Dropping courses after the add/delete period: Students may drop a course during the first forty days of a full semester course. For courses running less than a full semester the semester Course Schedule booklet will contain official dates each semester. (The time period for dropping will be equal to 54 percent of the course instructional period.) A student’s record shall indicate an N grade for each course officially dropped during this period. Forms for the procedure are available in the Schools or Registrar/Scheduling Offices. After the eight-week drop period, drops will be allowed only for A extenuating circumstances, student’s record shall indicate a W grade for courses officially dropped during this period. The student must receive the instructor’s recommen­ dation and the approval of the Registrar. Forms may be obtained at the Registrar’s Office. CLASS ATTENDANCE Students at Lake Superior State University should be sufficiently mature to attend classes without being required to do so. Students must decide for themselves when it is necessary to be absent. In making such a decision, they must understand that instructors are authorized to lower grades if they believe a student’s absence requires The policy on this action. attendance reads as follows: 1. Absences will be handled according to the instructor’s discretion, consistent with school policy. 2. Instructors may report consec­ utive or excessive absences to the Vice President for Student Services. 3. Participation in an official University function shall be considered an excused absence when approved by the Provost. Students shall not be penalized for participation in such a function; but students are responsible for work missed and must confer with their instructor on this matter. ACADEMIC POLICIES • 19 �COMPLETE WITHDRAWAL FROM THE UNIVERSITY Full-time students who withdraw from the University during the first eight-weeks of the semester should report in person to the Counseling Center and complete a withdrawal form for the Registrar’s office. The Registrar will authorize the appropriate refund, if any. Refunds will be mailed after the end of the refund period. After the eight-week drop period, students must report to the Registrar’s Office for the Withdrawal Form. Proper clearance of University obligations assures that students can later receive transfer of credits. Students with a hold on their •anscript will not receive a ranscript of credits until clearance is complete. THE GRADING SYSTEM Grade point average (GPA). To compute the grade point average for a semester, divide the total points earned by the total credits carried. Credits carried include those failed or earned but not credits for Credit/No Credit courses. To figure the cumulative grade point average divide the total points earned by the total credits carried in all semesters. When a course is repeated, count only the credits carried and the points of the last grade earned. Thus, successfully repeating courses in which students initially earned a D or F is an effective way for them to improve their cumulative GPA. A cumulative grade point average of 2.00 for all credits carried is required for graduation. Further, the student must compile a 2.00 grade point average for all departmental courses required in the student’s major and minor(s). GRADES AND GRADE POINTS Grades awarded are: Grade A+ A Excellent AB+ B Good BO C Average CD+ D Inferior DF Failure I Incomplete N No Grade W Withdrawal Z Deferred CR Credit NCR No Credit Grade Points per Credit 4 4 3.7 3.3 3 2.7 23 2 1.7 13 1 .7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 An Incomplete grades (I): incomplete grade is given only when students, because of circumstances beyond their control, are unable to complete a segment of the course. It must be made up by the date specified by the instructor which must be within a maximum of two semesters in residence, or else the incomplete grade becomes a failure. Summer semesters are not counted unless a student is enrolled for classes during the summer. No Grade (N) and Withdrawal (W) grades: An N grade will be given for each course officially dropped during the first eight weeks and a W grade will be given for each course officially dropped after the eight week drop period. Deferred grades (Z): Deferred grades are given in those special ACADEMIC POLICIES • 20 �courses where work is planned to extend beyond a single semester. Reports Grade reports: concerning grades and credits are sent to each student after each semester. These reports are mailed to home addresses. Dean’s list: Students who complete twelve or more credits in a semester with a grade point average of 3.50 or higher will be placed on the dean’s list for that semester, acknowledging their outstanding achievement. ACADEMIC PROBATION Students at Lake Superior State University enjoy a considerable degree of self-determination; they decide for themselves when and how long to work on each assignment. The best way to succeed in this task is to work out a weekly schedule with two hours of study time earmarked as preparation for each one-hour class. (In a few cases, the instructor may suggest some other division of time.) Most students are able to maintain good work in all their courses. A few fall short of satisfactory performance. For them, a system of academic probation is used. Academic probation is considered a warning to students that their scholastic performance is below the University’s minimum requirements. During this period, students should determine for themselves whether to continue their programs as planned. No student while on probation shall carry more than 15 credits per semester exclusive of band and recreational activities. The Vice President for Student Services, in consultation with the student’s advisor, may impose restrictions on the student’s extra-curricular activities. It is the responsibility of students to familiarize themselves with all academic regulations including those relating to probation, and to keep informed as to their academic standing. The rules governing academic probation, dismissal, and reinstatement follow. 1. Students will be on academic probation if their cumulative grade point average is in the "on probation" category. 2. Students whose cumulative grade point average at the conclusion of a semester falls into the dismissal range of the academic standing table will be dismissed. 3. After a first or second dismissal a student has the following options: a. Allow two semesters (summer may be counted for one semester) to elapse before re-enrollment or b. Petition the Scholastic Standards Committee for readmittance. immediate This action is initiated with the Registrar. The Commit­ tee can permit early readmit­ tance with specific conditions required of the student or deny the student’s request. Subsequent to the Commit­ tee’s denial the student can further appeal to the Provost, whose decision is final. 4. Students who continue after a dismissal will be dismissed again after any semester in which their cumulative grade point average falls in the dismissal category. The Registrar may allow the ACADEMIC POLICIES • 21 �Academic Standing Table Full and Part-time Students Academic Probation and Dismissal Policy Cumulative Semester Credits Carried at LSSU 1 - 18 19-25 26-40 41-55 56-72 73 - 87 88 + Minimum for Good Standing 1.81 * Cumulative Grade Point Average On Probation less than 1.81 1.81 1.86 1.91 1.93 1.95 1.97 ** 1.41 - 1.80 1.51 - 1.85 1.61-1.90 1.71-1.92 1.81-1.94 1.91 - 1.96 Dismissal Not subject to Dismissal 1.40 or less 1.50 or less 1.60 or less 1.70 or less 1.80 or less 1.90 or less •Students will not be dismissed for academic deficiencies until they have enrolled in at least 19 semester credits at Lake Superior State University. **A cumulative grade point average of 2.00 for all credits carried at Lake Superior State University, and a cumulative grade point average of 2.00 for all courses required in the student’s major and minor is necessary for graduation. student to continue "on probation" with the record showing "on probation" instead of "dismissal", if the student’s record has shown improvement during the semester and student has a 2.00 grade point average in courses carried for that semester. 5. Students dismissed a third time will not be reinstated without the permission of the Provost. Three semesters must elapse from the time of dismissal before the student may petition for readmittance. Summer may be counted for one semester. 6. The Scholastic Standards Committee may on the recommendation of a school dean require students to withdraw from any course or courses in which their preparation, progress, effort or conduct is deemed unsatisfactory and may on the recommendation of the Provost or Vice President for Student Programs and Services dismiss students from the University if their background, overall academic accom­ plishment, conduct or attitude toward their work is deemed unsatisfactory. CREDIT/NO CREDIT COURSES To encourage intellectual explo­ ration, students may enroll in some courses on a credit/no credit basis for which either a grade of CR or NCR is given. To be eligible for this option students must be in good academic standing, not on academic probation. Only one such course per semester is permitted and no more than twelve semester credits in such courses may be presented toward a student’s degree requirements. Additionally, this credit/no credit option may not be selected in courses which satisfy major, minor or general education requirements. Students must apply at the Registrar’s Office during the six-day add period if they want to enroll in a graded course under the ACADEMIC POLICIES • 22 �credit/no credit policy. This option may not be changed after the six-day add period. Academic performance at the level of 2.00 or higher is required for the credit, CR, grade. Instructors are not advised of a student’s option to be graded credit/no credit. Certain courses are always offered with a credit/no credit grading format. Such courses have this information in their official course descriptions and course syllabi. The above policy and limitations do not apply to these courses. CREDIT BY EXAMINATION There are three examination processes by which a student may earn credit for individual courses or general education requirements; Advanced Placement, CLEP and departmental examinations. Proc­ esses for taking Advanced Placement and CLEP examinations are described in the Admissions section of this Catalog. Students must be admitted to a degree program before being eligible to receive credit by examination. A maximum of 30 credits may be earned by examination. CLEP examinations, if available, will be used to determine whether credit shall be granted. Departments may provide their own examinations for certain courses. Students should inquire at the academic department offering the course whether a departmental examination is available. If an examination is available, the school dean’s written approval to take the examination must be obtained. fee amount will be equivalent to that for CLEP exams and students will not be charged tuition for the credits earned. An examination grade of 2.00 or better is required for credit to be earned. Course and credit earned by examination shall be recorded on the student’s transcript with the grade marked as CR. Some universities may not accept for transfer, credit earned by departmental examination. TRANSCRIPTS Students desiring transcripts of their Lake Superior State University records must present or send a written request to the Registrar’s Office. Information such as name (at enrollment), ID number, dates of attendance is necessary. A fee may be charged for each copy of the record. The official record of the student’s academic progress (transcript) will be forwarded only to those places or persons requested in writing by the Only "student copy" student. transcripts will be issued directly to a student. Students with financial or other obligations to the University will not receive a transcript until all obligations are cleared. NOTES An application form for credit by examination with explanation of the necessary procedural steps, may be obtained from the school dean. The ACADEMIC POLICIES • 23 �THE PRIVACY ACT Section 438 of the General Education Provisions Act, as amended, sets forth the requirements to be met by an educational institution to protect the privacy of students. This Act is called the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act and shall be referred to hereafter as the Act. The Act generally governs access to student educational records and the release of such records. The Act also requires that institutions of higher education must provide students access to official records directly related to the student and an opportunity for a hearing to challenge such records on the grounds that they are inaccurate, misleading or inappropriate. Educational institutions must also obtain written consent before releasing personally identifiable data about students from records to other than a specified list of exceptions. In addition, students must be notified of these rights. In accordance with provisions of the Act and the regulations enacted by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, Lake Superior State University has adopted the following policies and procedures: Section 1. General Policy on Access and Disclosure Lake Superior State University shall not as a matter of policy or practice: 1. Deny or prevent students at the university the right to inspect or review the educational records of such students, or Educational Rights and Privacy Act and the policies and procedures set forth in the following sections.

NOTES STUDENT STANDARDS • 38 �ADMISSIONS FRESHMEN Prospective freshmen still in high school may make application to Lake Superior State University any time during the final year of high school. Applications for admission are processed continuously and students are notified as quickly as possible. A final transcript of courses completed during the final year must be submitted to the Admissions Office promptly after completion of the school year. Failure to provide a final transcript will result in the withdrawal of an offer of admission. An official score report from American College Testing (ACT) must also be submitted prior to class registration. Prospective freshmen who have already graduated from high school but not attended any college or university must have an official transcript sent directly from their high school to the Admissions Office. The transcript must include all courses taken, starting with grade nine, and graduation certification. Admitted applicants who graduated from high school fewer than 26 months prior to the date they wish to enter the University must submit their scores from American College Testing (ACT) prior to registering for classes. The primary factor in evaluating an application for admission is the individual’s grade point average starting with grade nine. All courses are meEluded in the average. Seventy-five piercent of the freshmen admitted to L SSU have an overall high school grade point average of 2.50 or higher. The top 25 percent of the admitted freshmen have an overall high school grade point ♦average of 3.22 or higher. The average overall high school grade point average for admitted freshmen is 2.98 on a scale of 4.0. Secondary factors which may also influence the admission decision are the number of academic courses an applicant has completed, the trend from year to year of the applicant’s grades, class rank, and recommendations. ACT scores are rarely a factor in the admissions decision. All credentials should be submitted to the Admissions Office at least three weeks before the semester of entry. However, if available spaces become filled, application processing will end at an earlier date. To qualify for admission as freshmen, applicants are expected to be graduates of accredited secondary schools. Any student graduating from a non-accredited school should contact the Director of Admissions for an explanation of the testing procedure used to evaluate an applicant who has attended a nonaccredited school. Students denied regular admission have at least two alternatives: 1. Apply for possible enrollment witnin the Division of General Studies. For more information on this enrollment option refer to the description of the Division of General Studies located later within this section. 2.

Enter your social security number in the appropriate space in your appli­ cation. It will serve as your perma­ nent student number. If you do not wish to provide this number, an alternate student number will be assigned. However, please be aware the agency processing financial aid applications will not process any aid application which does not include the student’s social security number.

CREDIT EVALUATIONS: Because the process is very time consuming, evaluation of transfer credit is not made until an applicant is accepted for admission. However, every effort is made to provide an evaluation of transfer credit as quickly as possible after admission. Students planning to transfer to Lake Superior State University can, by reviewing the course descriptions included in the Lake Superior State University catalog, arrive at a reasonably close approximation of the amount of transfer credit they While may expect to receive, making this informal evaluation, students should keep in mind transfer credit is granted for courses which are substantially equivalent in content, length, and prerequisites to the courses offered at this University. D grades will be transferred only for individuals meeting both of the following conditions: 1. having a 2.00 or greater cumulative grade point average; and 2. upon initial application being eligible for, or being granted, unconditional admission as a full­ time student on the basis of their college or university academic records elsewhere. Courses with D grades accepted as transfer credit may not apply to all Some academic departments, departments do not accept transferred D grades as replacements for courses required as part of the departmental major. In those cases, the departmental major courses involved must be repeated. However, courses not accepted by a department may be applied as elective credit where possible. Initial transfer credit evaluations indicating which Lake Superior State University courses and how many credits will be granted to the student are completed by either the Admissions or Registrar’s offices. These initial evaluations are subject to review and possible modification by the dean of the academic school offering the equivalent course. The dean’s decision on courses and ADMISSIONS • 41 �AMERICAN COLLEGE TESTING (ACT) AH freshmen who enroll within 26 months of high school graduation and have not attended another college must take the American College Test.

PROVISIONAL CREDIT: Credit earned at any institution not listed as accredited in the American Council of Education’s publication, Accredited Institutions of Post­ secondary Education, is granted provisionally. Only after students demonstrate satisfactory progress in their chosen academic programs at Lake Superior State University do provisional credits become part of students’ permanent records.

GUEST STUDENTS A student who is regularly enrolled at another college or university may be admitted to Lake Superior State University as a guest student. A guest admission is valid for only one semester. However, under exten­ uating circumstances this may be extended for one additional semester by submitting another guest application. Any student intending to enroll for more than one semester must submit an application for admission as a transfer student. Guest student applications may be obtained from the Admissions Office at Lake Superior State University or any other college or university in Michigan. Guest students assume full responsibility for determining whether courses taken at Lake Superior State University will apply to their programs of study at the college from which they intend to graduate. CANADIAN STUDENTS Lake Superior State University welcomes applications from Canada. Ontario students applying on the basis of their high school records are evaluated on their grade point ADMISSIONS • 43 �Grading Scales for Evaluation A Level & OAC G Level Equivalent Letter Grade A B C D F 90-99 80-89 70-79 60-69 50-59 80-99 70-79 60-69 50-59 average for all courses taken starting with grade nine. The Admissions Office uses two grading scales, shown below, when evaluating an Ontario secondary school applicant. OAC and A level courses are considered more demanding and their content more appropriate preparation for university-level courses than are G level courses. B level courses are never included in the grade point average. Secondary factors which may also influence the admission decision are the number of academic courses an applicant has completed, the trend from year to year of the applicant’s grades, and recommendations. Students denied regular admission have at least two alternatives: 1. Apply for possible enrollment within the Division of General Studies. For more information on this enrollment option refer to the description of the Division of General Studies located later within this section. 2. Reapply for admission after attending another accredited college of their choice and earning at least 30 semester (45 quarter) hours of transferable credit. The evaluation for admission is then based upon the college record rather than the high school record. A report of ACT scores is required from all Ontario secondary school students. ACT scores are used for counseling and placement purposes, rather than as a factor in the admissions decision. Additional information for Ontario secondary school students is available in Informational Handbook for Ontario Students and Guidance Counselors, published by the Admissions Office. Canadian applicants from provinces other than Ontario are also welcome and will be evaluated on the basis of the education system in their provinces. ONTARIO GRADE 13/0AC COURSES Students who completed grade 13 or OAC courses before September, 1990 receive transfer credit at the University for each course in which a final mark of at least 60 percent was earned. Transfer credit will not be granted for OAC courses completed after that date. However, completion of OAC courses prepares some students to earn credit through testing. Up to 30 semester hours of credit may be earned by achieving satisfactory scores on CLEP tests and departmental examinations given on the campus. If information about ADMISSIONS • 44 �CLEP tests and departmental tests offered by the University is not available at your secondary school guidance office, please contact the Admissions Office. FOREIGN STUDENTS (NON-CANADIANS) The University makes every effort to meet the needs of foreign students who give evidence of adequate academic preparation and sufficient competency in English. Six months to one year before the beginning of the desired semester of entry, the student should write to the Director of Admissions requesting application materials.

PART-TIME ENROLLMENT Students wishing to attend on a parttime basis may enroll for up to eleven credits per semester in courses for which they have sufficient academic background. Unless high school students have special permission from their principals, part-time enrollment is limited to those whose high school class has already graduated. Parttime students not seeking degrees or certificates, are not required to apply formally for admission prior to enrollment. A course registration form must be completed during the registration period for each semester of attendance, These forms are available through the University’s Registrar/Scheduling and Commu­ nity Services and Development offices. Should a part-time student later desire full-time enrollment (12 or more credits per semester), or elect to seek degree/certificate status, the student must submit a completed application for admission with a $20 non-refundable application pro­ cessing fee, have the required official transcripts sent to the Admissions Office and meet all admission requirements for Lake Superior State University. Part-time students are not officially assigned to faculty advisors.

TECH PREP The national Tech Prep movement is supported at Lake Superior State University. As a testimony of its institutional support, grades earned in applied high school science and mathematics courses contribute to the high school GPA computed for university admission. Tech prep, with its emphasis upon curricular integration between secondary and postsecondary educational insti­ tutions, assists Lake Superior State University in creating a broader array of educational options for its students. Lake Superior State believes that Tech Prep agreements open career doors and professional pathways for high school students in applied sciences, business, allied health and technology. In keeping with the national Tech Prep movement, Lake Superior State University has created articulation agreements with area high schools to enhance applied and career educational opportunities at the postsecondary level. In tandem with its regional secondary education partners, the university has created pathways to applied education for specified curricula in business and technology. University course credit toward degree requirements for high school work if certain competencies are met and/or opportunities to demonstrate skill development acquired in secondary schools exist in these programs. Check with your high school guidance counselor or a Lake Superior admissions counselor to verily whether a specific course in your high school may applyAdditional tech prep articulations with both area high schools and community colleges are being ADMISSIONS • 46 �developed. Tech prep is an educa­ tional outreach effort strongly compatible with the mission of the institution. Applied skills developed in high school set the stage for postsecondary education across a range of career and professional fields available at Lake Superior State University. The LSSU Office of Career Planning and Placement can provide additional information for perspective students and parents. DIVISION OF GENERAL STUDIES Division of General Studies (DGS) provides comprehensive academic support services to all Lake Superior State University students. ACADEMIC ADVISING Academic advising for the provisional enrollment option. DGS provides an enrollment opportunity that would enable selected students (minimum prerequisite cumulative grade point average and measured academic capacity indicators apply in order to qualify) possessing a high level of desire and drive, along with the necessary academic capacity, to pursue a college education which would begin under certain provisions. A provisional admission would be offered only to motivated candidates who narrowly miss regular full admission to the Students offered University, provisional admission to the University are assigned to the Division of General Studies (DGS) for academic advising and are expected to meet certain educational and student support outcomes within four semesters (full or part-time). The enrollment option will end for those students not able to complete the outcomes within this allotted time. WHYDGS For those students not meeting the regular admissions requirements, the college experience is especially difficult. Even though there are no guarantees even for regular admits, DGS provides a comprehensive supportive program which does provide serious students, who are carefully selected, the opportunity to do well. FINANCIAL AID Financial aid is available to students enrollment in DGS and the student’s eligibility for such aid is not affected by enrollment into DGS. LENGTH OF DGS While enrolled in DGS the student is assigned to a DGS licensed professional counselor who works very closely with the student’s respective academic department in the academic advising process in order to fully utilize that department’s particular expertise wherever appropriate. DGS creates course schedules which are personalized to meet the needs and capabilities of each individual student. These needs vary as much as the uniqueness of one student varies from another. The length of time necessary to make a full, successful transition varies from one individual to another. However, the student’s course schedule and support services are based upon competency and personal adjustment so that students may exit as soon as they are ready. Consequently, some students will be ready by the end of their first semester, while others may take the four semesters. Some students will find that they will still be able to graduate right on ADMISSIONS • 47 �Successful students know that they owe it to themselves and they will avail themselves of all the services DGS provides which include: schedule, whereas others will take longer.

COSTS • 61 �FINANCIAL AID The University strives to reward the scholar and to meet the needs of the many students who apply for financial assistance. A combination of University, state and federal programs enable many students to receive a "financial aid package" which may include a combination of scholarship, loan, grant, and/or work assistance. Priority in aid awards will be to full-time undergraduate students. All students should carefully consider the full cost of their education, parental support, and savings, including savings from summer employment, in determining their need for financial aid. Students with excellent high school or community college grades are encouraged to apply for scholarships regardless of need. Students with need will be considered for loans, grants, and/or employment on the basis of need established from the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Applications for all financial aid programs are available from the Office of Student Financial Aid. The staff of this office will be happy to counsel with applicants and their parents concerning the costs of attending the University, availability of financial aid, and application procedures. All applications for financial aid must be received by April 1. Financial Statements (FAFSA) must be postmarked on or before March 1. Applying Prospective students wishing to apply for financial aid should complete the financial aid section of the application for admission; forms may be obtained from high school principals or counselors or by writing to: Student Financial Aid, Lake Superior State University, Sault Ste.

The form must be mailed on or before March 1 to assure that financial needs anal __ lysis reports are received before the financial aid application deadline of April 1. RETAINING AID (SATISFACTORY PROGRESS POLICY) A policy of great importance to students receiving financial aid defines the rate of academic progress and success which must be met if financial aid is to be retained. If you are receiving any form of financial aid, please study the following section carefully: Financial aid regulations require satisfactory progress for students to remain eligible for financial aid. Programs affected by this policy are: Federal Pell Grant, Federal Perkins Student Loan, Federal College Work-Study, Federal Supp lemental Educational Opportunity Grant, the Federal Stafford Student Loan Programs, Board of Regents Scholarships, Board of Regents Grant, Michigan Competitive Scholarship, and all other institutional scholarships and grants. The following is tne minimum requirement for all types of financial aid; however, there are some types of aid, such as scholarships, with more stringent requirements: Every student must maintain, at the end of each semester, a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least: Credits Attempted 0-25 26-55 56-87 88 + Cumulative GPA 1.70 1.86 1.93 1.97 APPLICATION OF POLICY First-year freshmen and new transfer students not meeting the GPA requirement after their first semester will be placed on Financial Aid Probation for one semester. The cumulative GPA after the probationary semester must satisfy the minimum GPA or the student will have their financial aid suspended. Students enrolled for more than one semester will not have a probationary semester and must meet the schedule above. Quantitative Standards: Students are expected to complete an associate degree in six semesters, a four-year degree in twelve semesters, and a masters in six semesters of full-time study. Fall/Spring Semester Undergraduate Graduate Students Credits to be Enrolled Earned Enrolled Credits Credits 75% 12 + 9 10+ 8 9 11 10 7 8 9 7 6 8 6 6 7 6 5 4 6 Students Credits to be Earned 7 6 6 5 4 4 Students enrolled for less than 6 credits do not have a term/semester added and those enrolled for 6 to 11 credits count as one-half semester. Once financial aid is suspended, both the GPA and credit completion criteria must be met in subsequent semesters before reinstatement of aid is possible. If completion of "I" grades or other record changes warrant a rein­ statement, a written notice from the Registrar’s Office must be presented to the Financial Aid Office by the FINANCIAL AID • 63 �end of the semester following suspension of aid. Summer school attendance may be used by the student to remove grade point or credit earned deficiencies. Students must file a request for reinstatement with the Financial Aid Office following the successful completion of a summer term. FINANCIAL AID SUSPENSION No aid, including but not limited to the Federal Stafford Student Loan, Federal Direct Loan, Federal Perkins Student Loan, Federal College Work-Study, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, Federal Pell Grant, Michigan Competitive Scholarship, and Institutional Scholarships and Grants, will be granted once a student’s eligibility is suspended. To remove financial aid suspension status, a student must have attained the minimum cumulative grade point average and credit earned requirements while not receiving financial aid processed through the University. Successful students then must advise the Financial Aid Office in writing that :hey meet the requirements for reinstatement. TRANSFER STUDENTS The requirements for transfer students are based on the number of full-time equivalent credits transferred to LSSU. For example, a student with 68 transfer credits must earn a GPA of 1.93 or higher and must meet the quantitative credit hour minimum requirements each semester. Transfer credits are divided by 13 to determine the equivalent semesters completed for satisfactory progress purposes. SCHOLARSHIP RENEWAL REQUIREMENTS In addition to the credits completion schedule, scholarship winners must meet the following GPA require­ ments to maintain their awards: BOARD OF REGENTS BOARD OF REGENTS^.

Since government and politics are found at many levels-intemational, national, state, and local—and all over the world, political science has many facets. All of these facets receive attention in the political science program at Lake Superior State University. The goal of the curriculum is to prepare students interested in government and politics for rewarding careers and lifetimes of learning and involvement. To best achieve this goal, three distinct concentrations or tracks are available for students of political science: 1. general political science 2 pre-law 3. public administration. Each concentration has been designed to provide a combination of knowledge and skills that is uniquely appropriate for those with particular career goals. However, choosing one concentration over the others does not limit a student to one particular career path-each of the concentrations provides a solid grounding in political science. BACHELOR OF ARTS/SCIENCE POLITICAL SCIENCE - GENERAL The general political science concentration is designed to provide a broad ducation in political science. It is most appropriate for students who plan to ittend graduate school in political science and for those with an interest in government and politics who wish to get a broad, liberal education as preparation for a career in business, government, or journalism. Students who continue their education in graduate school most often pursue careers as professors, researchers, consultants, or government officials. Students who do not pursue graduate study choose from a wide variety of career options in business, government, and journalism.

Students who choose this option are often interested in careers as attorneys, prosecutors, or judges. It should be noted that this is not a mandatory pre-law curriculum; it is a curriculum for pre-law students who have a special interest in government and politics. Noteworthy features of this concen­ tration are a special course on the nature of legal careers and how to prepare for them; two courses in legal research and writing that provide students with a head start in using a law library and in conducting legal research; and a well-designed combination of support courses in logic, debate, writing, accounting, and research.

Some of these careers of public service may be pursued with only a bachelor’s degree. Others may require completion of a master’s degree in public administration or a related field. Senior public administration students will complete an internship as part of their education. Internships allow students to apply the knowledge they have gained in the classroom in an on-the-job setting. They are also valuable for creating a record of experience that will impress prospec­ tive employers and help the student become established in a career.

Students entering law school choose undergraduate majors from a wide variety of fields. However, a pre-law concentration is offered in the political science curriculum, and various law courses are offered as a part of the legal assistant studies program at Lake Superior State University. See the appropriate political science and legal assistant studies program listings. Students interested in a legal career should consult with the pre-law advisor, Professor Carol Andary, early and often during their Pre-law undergraduate studies, planning, based on consultation with the advisor, will allow the student to make an informed choice of curriculum and of elective courses that will help with the development of the skills mentioned below. The pre-law advisor will also provide pre-law students with a variety of materials about admission to law school, the law school admission test, and careers in law. A student’s undergraduate grade point average and his or her score on the Law School Admission Test (LSAT) are the two most important criteria for admission to law school. Details on admission policies of law schools throughout the country, and the degree to which these schools may use other criteria in addition to grade point average and LSAT score, may be found in the Pre-Law Handbook. This handbook is published by the Law School Admission Council/Law School Admission Services and is the official law school guide. It may be examined by contacting the pre-law advisor or purchased in many book stores. Although there is no prescribed major which must be taken for admission to law school, some curricula may be better than others in helping students develop skills necessary for admission to law school and for a successful legal career. A broad and challenging undergraduate curriculum is the best The preparation for law school. T. ARTS, LETTERS AND SOCIAL SCIENCES • 115 �iy>-i gw Handbook stresses that a student’s undergraduate education should lead to the dey,exloPme!JVw skills in three areas: (1) the ability to understand and express oneself well in words, (2) the development of a critical understanding ot the human institutions and values with which the law deals, and (3) the development of creative power in thinking. A pre-law student should consider the need to develop these skills in selecting his or her curriculum. In addition, students should think about whether the curriculum they choose can provide an alternative to a career in law should they eventually choose not to pursue a legal career.

The Engineering Team: Most activities involving engineering have increased in complexity so that a team of engineering professionals is required. The size and cost of engineering endeavors have dictated the employment of professional engineers, engineering technologists, technicians and skilled craftsmen as a team. Bachelor of science degrees in engineering technology are offered at LSSU along with associate degrees in engineering technology. LSSU offers the first two years of a professional engineering program after which a student can transfer to a school of engineering. LSSU does not offer training in the skilled trades. PROGRAMS accreditation of engineering and engineering technology education. The education of engineering technologists focuses on application and implementation of current Engineering technologies, technology programs strive to balance the theoretical and practical aspects of engineering science. Typical job responsibilities of engineering technologists include product and process design, system design and implementation, and operations management. Graduates with bachelor of science degrees are adequately prepared for graduate studies in engineering technology. B.S. in Engineering Technology: LSSU offers Bachelor of Science degrees (4-year) programs in Automated Manufacturing, Electrical/Electronics, Environ­ mental, and Mechanical Engineering Technology. These programs utilize mathematics at the calculus level and provide appropriate laboratory experiences. Accreditation: All of the programs in Engineering Technology, both 4year and 2-year, are accredited by the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology. The U.S. Department of Education formally recognizes this board’s exclusive jurisdiction for A.D. in Engineering Technology: LSSU offers Associate degrees (2 year) programs in ElectronicsComputer and Mechanical, These Engineering Technology, degrees qualify the graduate as a technician.

NOTES ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY AND MATHEMATICS • 162 �DEPARTMENT OF AUTOMATED MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY Asst. Prof. James Devaprasad, Chair BACHELOR OF SCIENCE Automated Manufacturing Engineering Technology The Automated Manufacturilng Engineering Technology program emphasizes the application of robotics, computer systems and automation to modem manufacturing. This program combines the disciplines of mechanical, electrical, computer, and manufacturing engineering technologies in preparing students for modem manufacturing and production career responsibilities. The Automated Manufacturing Engineering Technology (AMET) program is a capstone program and therefore assumes a two-year background in an appropriate engineering technology or preengineering curriculum. Graduates will be prepared to design, integrate, and implement various systems for automated manufacturing. Technical courses in the final two years will be based upon the student’s previous background and are designed to produce a well-rounded and versatile engineering technologist. An individualized plan of study for each transfer student will be generated by the AMET faculty in consultation with the student. This plan of study will provide a schedule of courses needed to fulfill the AMET degree requirements as set forth by the University, TAC/ ABET, and the faculty. NOTES TRANSFER STUDENTS Students from community colleges with a background in an engineering technology curriculum can usually transfer directly into the third year of the automated manufacturing program. Most community college programs in Michigan have transfer curriculum agreements with LSSU.

Mathematics is one of the most productive tools yet discovered for unraveling the mysteries of our universe. In some instances, it is the only language in which some ideas can be expressed. Courses offered in this discipline provide the foundation for future work in mathematics. Our teaching objectives are twofold: to give students an understanding of mathematics, and to impart an understanding of the many ways in which this tool may be used. Career opportunities: Mathematicians are employed as teachers in secondary schools, colleges and universities. Many work for government agencies sue as the Department of Defense, National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the Department of Commerce. Companies providing computer and data processing services, educational and testing services, and managemen an actuarial services also employ mathematicians.

IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE FOLLOWING THE NRT DEGREE. SEE DEPARTMENT OF BIOLOGY Students with a particular interest in state and federal laws enacted to protect our natural resources and federal restrictions on the use of our renewable resources should consider obtaining both an Associate Degree in Natural Resources Technology (2 years) and a Bachelor of Science Degree in Criminal Justice (3 additional years). The NRT degree will provide the student with a good general background in natural resources and the Criminal Justice degree will allow the student to be fully qualified for many different law enforcement opportunities. Jobs for conservation law offices are limited, but the above configuration of degrees prepares a student to be highly competitive for openings that do occur.

The athletic trainer works closely with physicians and other health care professionals in order to provide today’s athletes with the best medical care possible. Those who pursue a career in athletic training may seek employment on the high school, college, or professional sport level. In addition, the athletic trainer may be employed in sports medicine and health fitness clinics, which have increased in numbers during the past decade. All the above mentioned positions usually require certification by the National Athletic Trainers’ Association. Students completing the concentration at Lake Superior State University will be more marketable in the field of exercise science and eligible for a variety of graduate programs in athletic training and sports medicine throughout the country. Any student wishing to achieve eligibility to sit for the National Athletic Trainers’ Association certification examination will receive individual guidance in that direction.

The special problem sequence will not be open to students electing the honors program research sequence. The completed research may be used for Senior Thesis. Independent Study Students desiring to enroll in BL, CH, or EV Special Problem courses will be granted permission to take the course(s) provided the following conditions are in existence at the time of petition: (A) junior or senior standing; (B) With overall GPA of at least 2.5; (C) No I grades on transcript. Students meeting these requirements must petition depart­ ment faculty with a detailed onepage outline of work and date to be completed. Request for more than four hours will result in a propor­ tionate reduction in a 17-hour load. The faculty preceptor must endorse the petition with a signature and the date the project is to be completed. DEPARTMENT OF BIOLOGY Biological Sciences prepare students for careers in research and in applied aspects of life sciences as well as providing a background in biology for a career or further studies in allied sciences. Programs offered include bachelor of science degrees in biology, fisheries and wildlife management, and medical technology; a bachelor of arts degree in biology; and an associate degree in natural resources SCIENCE AND NATURAL RESOURCES • 224 �technology. Associate degree students electing to pursue four-year degree programs generally can change their majors to one of the other biology degree programs without losing credits or having to make up deficiencies. Students working toward these four-year degree programs have the same basic courses. BACHELOR OF ARTS/SCIENCE Biology Lake Superior State University is ideally located for field studies of terrestrial and aquatic resources. Students electing a variety of courses in ecology and applied ecology can qualify for state and federal positions in fisheries biology, wildlife biology, and other related fields. Laboratory courses give students knowledge and techniques necessary for many technical positions with industry and governmental agencies. Students interested in research positions in marine biology, microbiology, physiology, fish and wildlife ecology and numerous other life sciences can receive a strong undergraduate background at Lake Superior State University that will enable them to pursue a career or graduate education elsewhere. Admission requirements for profes­ sional and graduate universities vary throughout the United States and Canada. Students planning post­ baccalaureate education should work with their advisor to insure that these requirements are met. advanced algebra, one unit of chemistry and three units of English. In addition, one biology unit and one unit of geometry or trigonometry are highly recommended. Students not meeting these requirements may enter on a provisional basis. OAC students are required to take departmental competency exam­ inations before credit will be granted in biology and chemistry. Substitu­ tion for courses required as part of biology degree requirements must be approved by the department chair. NOTES Entrance requirements: To qualify for admission as freshmen, applicants must be graduates of accepted secondary schools with above average standing in their class.

Pre-professional: Medicine, Optometry, Dentistry, Veterinary Medicine Professional schools, including medical, dental, optometry, and veterinary schools, typically do not specifically require any college cfegree, let alone a specific degree in biology. However, applicants to professional schools are seldom accepted with only three years of undergraduate credit. Further, since career goals often change, preprofessional students at LSSU are encouraged to remain four years and complete the requirements for a baccalaureate degree. A survey of medical and dental school admission requirements for the United States ana Canada as published by the American and Canadian Associations of Medical and Dental Colleges shows that courses taken for either the Lake Superior State University Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of SCIENCE AND NATURAL RESOURCES • 233 �Arts degree in Biology meet the most stringent entrance require­ ments. Therefore, although other curricula may be pursued as preprofessional degrees, most students elect to strive toward a degree in biology. Pre-Professional Advisory Board: The board consists of representatives from the disciplines of biology and chemistry including two preprofessional advisors, This committee serves to aid the progress of all pre-professional students throughout their undergraduate careers. In addition to assessing a student’s progress at the end of their sophomore year, where possible the committee will write a formal recommendation to the appropriate medical, optometry, veterinary or dental university. By virtue of our small size and student to faculty ratio, we can write an in-depth letter based upon our personal knowledge of each student’s abilities and performance rather than merely using grade point average and MCAT, VAT, DAT or OAT scores. These letters, which take into account the aspects of the student’s personality that relate to their potential as a medical professional, are highly regarded by the various professional schools in Michigan as well as in the province of Ontario. A handbook is available to all LSSU pre-health professional students upon formal admission to our programs. This handbook is designed to assist students in achieving their goal of successful entrance into professional school. Pre-Pharmacy (Transfer Program) The two-year course of study outlined below is a guide for those who plan to apply for admission and transfer to a three-year professional pharmacy curriculum at another institution, In Michigan, such programs are offered at Ferris State University, University of Michigan, and Wayne State University. For further information and planning, students are advised to consult catalogs from these or other institutions. Generally, application for admission to a professional pharmacy curriculum must be submitted after completing the first year of pre-pharmacy studies. Usually students must have a cumulative grade point average of 2.00 as well as grades of C or better in sciences and mathematics. Students entering Ferris State University with one year of high school physics may pass a physics proficiency examination in lieu of the year of college physics. If the latter courses are not taken, a sequence of humanities or behavioral science courses is recommended. The following suggested schedule, for instance, is recommended and meets all requirements for admission to the School of Pharmacy of Ferris State University.

NOTES SCIENCE AND NATURAL RESOURCES • 238 �DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE Environmental Chemistry Environmental Chemistry is a relatively new, fast-growing subdiscipline of Chemistry that addresses the need of society for a safe, healthy environment by applying chemical principles to the maintenance and enhancement of environmental quality. Chemicals have increased our standard of living and quality of life, but have also exacted a heavy price in terms of pollution and environmental degradation. It is only through the enlightened application of chemistry that the problems caused by chemicals can be solved and environmental quality improved. Anyone entering into an environ­ mental field, as well as those entering the chemical profession, should have a basic understanding of environmental chemistry. The envi­ ronmental sector is the fastest growing component of the U.S. economy, and shortages are greatest in the areas of environmental chemistry as well as environmental engineering. The Environmental Chemistry program at Lake Superior State University is intended for students who have an interest in and aptitude for chemistry and a concern for the environment. The program takes advantage of LSSU’s strategic location at the outlet of Lake Superior, which provides for a broad variety of field and research experiences, Graduates of the program will apply chemical methods to the study, amelioration, and solution of environmental problems. They will be employable by federal and state or provincial agencies, industries, and businesses, and as environmental consultants. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS: Those planning to enroll in the program should have completed at least 15 units of acceptable entrance credits at an accredited secondary school with above average standing in their class. The credits must include one unit of beginning algebra, one-half unit of advancer algebra, one unit of geometry, on< unit of chemistry, and three units ot English. An additional year of chemistry and a year of senior math are highly recommended.

SCIENCE AND NATURAL RESOURCES • 243 �DEPARTMENT GEOLOGY AND PHYSICS Since the Beginning of the solar system our earth has been developing. Our present environment is the result of the cumulative interaction of many dynamic physical, chemical and biological processes. Geology deals with the dynamic earth, its physical makeup, and its physical and organic history. It involves the study of changes which have taken place and the forces which cause, and are now causing, these changes. By drawing on concepts of biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics, geologists attempt to understand the physical environment in which we live and from which we derive most of the natural resources essential to our civilization. Our civilization requires many non-renewable natural resources in order to survive. Since the turn of the century, we have used more and more of these resources at an ever-increasing rate and now have critical supply problems. Our demands upon the environment have significantly changed the earth around us, and, if we are to survive, we must live within the constraints imposed by nature. Geologists study and understand these constraints. They must apply their knowledge to achieve harmony between the human race and its environment. Geology has a broad scientific base in mathematics, physics, biology and chemistry as well as emphasizing fundamentals of geologic science and geophysics. Increases in the demand for energy fuels and mineral products result in an expansion of opportunities for graduates in Students contemplating geology. careers in geology should, upon graduating, expect to travel, often to remote and uninhabited areas. Most of the jobs entail outdoor field work, often under difficult conditions. Other new fields are now requiring geologists, such as NASA, EPA, and companies and agencies involved with environmental concerns. The geological environment of Lake Superior State University provides unexcelled opportunities for field study of classic sections illustrating Precambrian stratigraphy, structure, intrusions, and metamorphism and undisturbed Paleozoic sedimentary formations. Proximity to deposits of iron, copper, uranium, dolomite and the Michigan oil and gas fields as well as other minerals is an additional advantage. Students are eligible to participate in the department’s active research in geology. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS: To qualify for admission to the program in geology, applicants must satisfy University admission requirements as described in the Admissions section of the Catalog. (This information is also included in the Viewbook.) Secondary school academic subjects should include: Three units of English, two units of algebra, one unit of geometry, and one unit of chemistry and physics. One-half unit of trigonometry is highly recommended. SCIENCE AND NATURAL RESOURCES • 244 �Completion of the program may require more than four years for students who do not meet all entrance requirements. For students with college-level achievement, the opportunity will be offered, by means of examination, to obtain course credit or placement into an advanced course.

A personal education in a safe and friendly environment remains a hallmark of today's LSSU. Our beautiful 115-acre campus overlooks the Michigan and Ontario twin cities of Sault Ste. Marie, the St. Mary's River, and the world famous Soo Locks. The school is located at the beginning of Interstate 75 which ends in the Florida Keys. The campus served as Ft. Brady starting in 1894 after the fort was relocated from the banks of the St. Mary's. The fort was deactivated in 1944 and, thanks to the efforts of local volunteers and leadership at Michigan College of Mining & Technology in Houghton, opened in the fall of that year as the Sault Ste. Marie Residence Center of MCMT. The Sault Branch was rechristened Lake Superior State College of Michigan Technical University in 1966. Autonomy arrived for LSSC in 1970. University status was granted in 1987 to the state's smallest public institution of higher learning.Enrollment has grown from the original class of 272 to more than 3,400 students. There are 14 buildings on the National Historic Register contributing to the University's sense of tradition. This unique architectural blend is a reminder of the "weapons to plowshares" history of the setting. Community: Sault Ste. Marie (pop. 18,000) is one of the oldest cities in North America, having begun as a fur trading center in the early 17th century. A Jesuit mission was established here in 1641, and Father Marquette founded the first permanent settlement 27 years later, within the boundaries of what was to become Michigan. The Sault celebrated its 300th birthday in 1968. Our sister city, Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, is a cultural, recreational, social and entertainment center. The combined population of the Twin Saults (101,000) allows for an international flavor abounding with the opportunities of a city, and the safety and comfort of a small town. 6 • Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU ...... �Expectations for Student Learning Lake Superior State University utilizes a Student Academic Achievement Plan developed by the faculty to meet the Assessment Initiative of the commission on Institutions of Higher Education, North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. The intent of this plan is to document student learning at Lake Superior State University both in the major program and across the general education requirements. This continuous evaluation process works to assure high quality teaching and effective student learning: The faculty at Lake Superior State University have collectively agreed upon the characteristics of the educated person the institution hopes to graduate and have identified outcomes that can be used to document these attributes. The following are areas that the faculty have deemed essential to a liberal education and have value for the students in their lives as responsible citizens: communication skills, mathematics, computer literacy, critical thinking, ethics, aesthetics, cultural diversity, and science and technology. Students who complete the general education courses at Lake Superior State University will be able to demonstrate attributes of the general education outcomes. Students attending Lake Superior State University can expect commitment by the University to document and enhance student learning. Through the assessment process, the University demonstrates its commitment to improving student learning and ensures that when students graduate they have attained specific attributes and abilities. Lake Superior State University expects a commitment on the part of its students to actively participate in the learning process.

Prerequisites: Many courses require that you complete English, math, reading or other preliminary classes before signing up to take these courses. If you have not met the prerequisite, you may be dropped from the class during the regular drop period with an N grade or not allowed to sign up for the class. Some courses require that you earn a C or better in prerequisite courses before scheduling for the next course. Exceptions may be made only by the dean of your college or the instructor of the subsequent class. Repeats: You may repeat a class to bring up a grade and raise your grade point average (GPA). However, you may not repeat a prerequisite course if you have successfully passed the subsequent course. Again, exceptions may be made by the dean of your college. Note: You will not receive extra credits for the repeated class but your GPA will be affected. Only the grade of the last attempt is calculated in your GPA. Drop/add period: You may change your class schedule during the first six (6) days of each semester. Courses you drop during the drop/ add period will not appear on your permanent record. If a course you wish to add is full, you must get an instructor's signature to schedule the course. Your add or withdrawal from a course is not officially complete until the appropriate form is completed in the Center for Student Services. It's a good idea to retain the official receipt upon completion of any add or drop. Late adds: If you wish to add a class after the six-day drop/ add period, you must first get a Late Add Form from the Center for Student Services (CSS) and then get the instructor's signature. Return your Late Add Form to CSS. Non-attendance of the first class: Your instructor may drop you from a course if you do not attend or if you do not call the instructor before classes begin. The course instructor will fill out a drop form and notify you if you are dropped from the course. Dropping after the add/delete period: You may drop a course during the first 40 days of a full semester (the last day to drop a class is shown in the schedule book and in the calendar of this book). Your record will show an "N" grade and your GPA will not be affected. To drop a class after the eight-week drop requires extenuating circumstances, and you must get approval from both your instructor and the Center for Student Services. AW grade will appear on your permanent record and will not affect your GPA. Class attendance: Regular class attendance and active participation in classes are important elements in the learning process. You are at the University primarily for the sake of intellectual growth and development. Attendance and participation provide appropriate opportu- Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2211 • 11 �nities for the evaluation of your progress.

This means that you are expected to attend classes regularly, and that you are responsible for the work assigned in class, the material covered in class and for participation in class activities (including discussion and listening) designed by the instructor as part of the learning experience. However, mere physical attendance should not be a criterion for evaluation of your performance. Participation in an official University function is an excused absence when approved by the provost. You will not be penalized for such participation. You are responsible for work missed and must confer with your instructor on this matter. Complete withdrawal: If you are a full-time student and drop all of your classes during the first eight weeks of the semester, you may be eligible for tuition refund. To receive any refund, fill out a Withdrawal Form at the Center for Student Services. This office will authorize your refund from the Business Office. (Please check the schedule book for the refund policy.) Before leaving, be sure you have cleared any holds on your records so you can return at a later date or have transcripts of your academic records sent out. Grading System Grade Point Average (GPA): To calculate your GPA for a semester, divide the total points earned by the total credits carried. Credits carried include those earned or failed but not those classes taken for credit/no credit. Cumulative GPA is calculated by dividing total points earned by the number of credits carried in all semesters. If you repeat a course, count only the credits carried and the points of the last grade earned. Just the grade of your last attempt is calculated in your GPA. A cumulative GPA of 2.00 for all credits is required for graduation. Further, a 2.00 cumulative grade point average for all credits in major and minor(s) is required. Some programs require a higher GPA in the major curriculum. Incomplete grades (I): To receive an I grade in a course which you can not complete, you must meet with your instructor and work out what you need to complete to obtain a grade. You must make up the work by the date specified by the instructor which must be within a maximum of two semesters in attendance or the incomplete grade becomes a failure. Summer semesters count if you are enrolled for classes during the summer. Your instructor will submit an I Form with the grade sheets and you will receive a copy. ...J ....J N and W grades: These grades are given to those classes that you have officially dropped N or withdrawn W. Z grade: Deferred grades are given when the course work of a particular course extends beyond a single semester. Grade reports: Grades and credit reports are mailed to your permanent home address after each semester. Grade change: You may request your instructor to review and change a grade within two semesters after completion. The instructor fills in and sends a Grade Change Form to the Center for Student Services. Dean's List: By completing 12 or more credits a semester with a grade point average of 3.50 or higher, you will earn Dean's List honors which acknowledge outstanding academic achievement. Academic probation: This is a warning that scholastic perfor- 12 • Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2211 - �mance is below the University's minimum requirements. During this probationary period, you will be allowed to carry only up to 15 credits each semester (band and recreational activities are not included in the 15 credits). 1. Academic probation is in effect if your cumulative grade point average is in the "on probation" category. 2. If your cumulative GPA falls into the dismissal range, you will be dismissed. 3. After a first or second dismissal, you have the following options: Academic Standing Table Full- and Part-time Students Academic Probation and Dismissal Policy Cumulative Semester Credits Carried atLSSU a. Sit out two semesters (summer can be counted as one semester) before reenrolling. b. Petition the Scholastic Standards Committee for immediate readmittance. This action is initiated with the assistant to the provost for academic records. Call 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2012 or 906-635-2012 The committee can either permit early readmittance with specific conditions required or deny the request. Further appeal can be made to the provost, whose decision is final. 4. 5. Students who continue after a dismissal will be dismissed again after any semester in which their cumulative grade point average falls in the dismissal category. The assistant to the provost for academic records may allow the student to continue "on probation" with the record showing "on probation" instead of "dismissal", if the student's record has shown improvement during the semester and the student has a 2.00 GPA in courses carried for that semester.

Three semesters must elapse from the time of dismissal before a petition for readmittance is considered. Summer may count for one semester. 6. The Scholastic Standards Committee may, on the recommendation of a college dean; provost or vice president for Student Programs and Services, dismiss students from the University if their academic progress, conduct or attitude toward their work is deemed unsatisfactory. Credit/No Credit Courses You may enroll in some courses on a credit/ no credit basis if you are in good academic standing. The following conditions exist: 1. One course per semester may be taken as credit/no credit. 2. Only 12 credits of courses taken as credit/ no credit may be applied toward a degree. Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2211 • 13 �3. Courses that are required by your major, minor, or that are general education courses, can not be taken for credit/ no credit. 4. You apply at the Center for Student Services to enroll for a credit/no credit course during the drop/ add period; cannot change to regular grades after the drop/ add period ends. 5. You maintain a 2.00 C average in a course to receive a CR grade. 6. Instructors are not notified that you are taking a course as credit/no credit; the CR or NCR credit is assigned based on the grade your instructor submits. Certain courses are always offered with a credit/ no credit format. These courses have this information in the official course description and course syllabi. The policy and limitations outlined above do not apply to these courses. Cheating and Plagiarism: The assumption of the academic contract is that the student does his or her own work: any breach of the contract is considered cheating. The faculty member who detects a student cheating may take appropriate action, such as assigning a failing grade for the entire course. A student who cheats is subject to dismissal from the University. If, in the opinion of the faculty member involved, such action is warranted, he or she will notify the chairman of the Scholastic Standards Committee and the student in writing. The Scholastic Standards Committee will then conduct a hearing in such a manner that the student is given due process. If the committee decides that dismissal is warranted, the student shall have five school days to appeal that decision to the provost of the University. .... Credit by Examination There are three examination processes you can take to earn credit for individual courses or general education requirements. They include: 1. Advanced placement 2. CLEP examinations - Inquire a the Center for Student Services, Counseling Center or with the assistant to the provost for academic records for information on the CLEP examinations. 3. Departmental examinations Inquire with the academic department whether an examination is available. You must be admitted to a degree program to receive credit by examination in which you may earn a maximum of 30 credits. An examination grade of 2.00 is required to earn credit. There is a fee required for both CLEP exami- 14 • Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2211 ..._.; - �nation and departmental examinations. The credits earned by examination appear on your transcript as CR. Some universities may not accept this type of credit for transfer. Transcripts You may have an official copy of your permanent records sent to schools, companies and other places or persons of your choice. Send a written request with your student ID number, name during enrollment and dates of attendance to Lake Superior State University, Center for Student Services, 650 W. Easterday Ave., Sault Ste. Marie, MI 49783. Enclose $5 per request to cover the cost of copying and mailing. Student copy transcripts are issued directly to you. Any financial or other obligations to the University must be cleared before a transcript is released. The Privacy Act Section 438 of the General Education Provisions Act, as amended, sets forth the requirements to be met by an educational institution to protect the privacy of students. This act is called the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act and shall be referred to hereafter as the Act. The Act generally governs access to student educational records and the release of such records. The Act also requires that institutions of higher education must provide students access to official records directly related to the student and an opportunity for a hearing to challenge such records on the grounds that they are inaccurate, misleading or inappropriate. Educational institutions must also obtain written consent before releasing personally identifiable data about students from records to other than a specified list of exceptions. In addition, students must be notified of these rights. In accordance with provisions of the Act and the regulations enacted by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, Lake Superior State University has adopted the following policies and procedures: Section 1. General Policy on Access and Disclosure Lake Superior State University shall not as a matter of policy or practice: 1. Deny or prevent students at the University the right to inspect or review the educational records of such students, or 2. Permit the release of educational records contrary to the provisions of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act and the policies and procedures set forth in the following sections. Section 2. Notification to Students Under the provisions of the Act, the University must annually notify students of their rights and the institution policies pertaining to the Act. In addition, notice must be given to the location where the policy can be obtained as well as to inform the students of the right to file complaints with the Department of Health, Education and Welfare concerning alleged failures by the University to comply with the Act. In accordance with these requirements the annual notice regarding students' rights, the location of copies of the University's policies setting forth these rights, as well as the right to file complaints with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act Office, shall be published in the University'Catalog. The annual letter to students will notify students of directory information. The director of the Student Services Center is the hearing officer for the Act and is responsible for implementing the notification requirements and distribution of copies of the policies and procedures.

If the University official responsible for establishing the content of the educational record denies the request to amend the record, the written notice of this decision will advise the student of the right to a hearing. Section 15. Right to a Hearing The Act provides an opportunity for a hearing to challenge the content of a student's educational record to insure that the record does not contain inaccurate or misleading information or violates the privacy or other rights of the student. This procedure can not be used to challenge grades. The following procedure defines the process after the de.cision of denial. Procedure of Hearing A student desiring a hearing on a denial to amend the record by the official establishing such records must: 1. submit a written request for a hearing to the hearing officer and the director of the Student Services Center. 2. designate in the request: the student's name and identification number, date of request, specific information on the record challenged, basis for amending record, summary statement of previous action taken to amend record including names of individuals contacted and from whom communications have been received. The hearing officer will, within seven calendar days of receipt of the request for hearing, notify the student of the hearing date, time and location. At least 72 hours notice prior to the hearing will be provided to involved parties. A full and fair opportunity is available to present evidence relevant to the question of whether the record in question is inaccurate, misleading or in violation of the privacy or other rights of the students. The student may be assisted or represented by any individual and expense including an attorney. The hearing officer will render a decision on the app~al within seven calendar days of hearing's conclusion. The decision shall be in writing and based solely upon the evidence presented at the hearing. The written decision to the student shall include a summary of the evidence and reasons for the decision. If, as a result of the hearing, the hearing officer rules the information is inaccurate, misleading or in violation of any of the student's rights, the record in question will be amended within seven calendar days of the decision. 1.

Be disclosed by the University,along with the contested record to any party receiving such record. Section 16. Waivers A student may waive any right under the Act. The waiver shall not be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the student. The University may not require that a student waive any right under the Act. This requirement does not preclude the University from requesting such a waiver. An applicant for admission or a student in attendance may waive the right to inspect and review confidential letters and statements of recommendation. The waiver applies to letters or statements only if it is in writing and designated by the student and if: 1. the applicant or student is notified of the names of those providing letters or statements. 2. the documents are used only for the purpose intended. 3. the waiver is not required as a condition of admission or receipt of any service or benefit from the University. A waiver may be revoked, but that action must be in writing and filed with the office in possession of the waiver. If, as a result of the hearing, the hearing officer determines that the record should not be amended, the student shall be informed of the right to place in the education record a statement commenting upon the information and setting forth the reasons for disagreeing with the University's decision.

In carrying out this policy, the University complies with all federal and state laws and regulations prohibiting discrimination including: Executive Order 11246, the ElliottLarsen Civil Rights Act of 1976, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, The Equal Pay Act of 1963, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended by the Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972, and the Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978, Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, Titles VII and VIII of the Public Health Service Act, Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, Sections 503 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Veteran's Assistance Act of 1972, and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. Sexual Harassment The University is committed to a policy of nondiscrimination on the basis of gender. Discrimination because of gender includes sexual harassment, which means unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct or communication of a sexual nature when: i. Submission to such conduct or communication is made a term or condition either explicitly or implicitly to obtain employment, public accommodations or public services, education, or housing; ii. Submission to or rejection of such conduct or communication by an individual is used as a factor in decisions affecting such individual's employment, public accommodations or public services, education, or housing; or Process l. iii. Such conduct or communication has the purpose or effect of substantially interfering with an individual's employment, public accommodations or public services, education, or housing environment. The University is committed to the protection of the rights of all individuals and to the elimination of barriers that would prevent individuals from realizing their highest potential of human excellence. Sexual harassment is a particularly noxious form of discrimination that interferes with these goals and commitments, and is difficult to combat due to the intimidation and destruction of self esteem of its victims. 2. With the Grievance Officer, individuals may discuss concerns they may have regarding possible discrimination or harassment to learn what options are available. 3. Nonretaliation: The University not only prohibits discrimination, including harassment, but also strictly prohibits any retaliation against any individual, who, in good faith, has registered a complaint under this procedure.

Applications are processed continuously and you will be notified of a decision within two weeks. To complete your admission file you must submit a final high school transcript and ACT scores (if you graduated from high school within 26 months of entering Lake State). To be considered official, all transcripts must be mailed from your high school guidance office directly to Lake Superior State University. Enter your social security number on your Application for Admission. It serves as your permanent student identification number. If you do not wish to provide the number, an alternate number will be assigned. Financial aid applications will not be processed without your social security number. Canadian applicants should not use their social insurance number. An alternative number will be assigned to Canadian and other foreign students. The primary factors in determining admission are ACT* scores and grade point average. Lake State uses an overall grade point average (GPA). The average overall GPA for the 1997 freshman class was 2.88 on a scale of a 4.0. The average ACT composite score was a 20. Students whose ACT or GPA levels approach but do not meet LSSU standards may be admitted via the University Studies program. University Studies is an arm of the University College dedicated to providing an educational opportunity to students who meet certain profiles. Students who are admitted via University Studies receive additional advising and support services to ensure their success at LSSU. If you are admitted via University Studies, you will be fully entered into your chosen major after meeting these three simple requirements: * earn 12 credits at the 100 level or above, * earn a 2.00 GPA, and * be eligible for 100-level math, reading and composition courses. ..J Students denied regular admission may reapply after attending another accredited college and earning at least 19 semester (29 quarter) hours of transferable credit. Evaluation for admission is then based upon the college record. *Although Lake State prefers you take the ACT, we will accept equivalent SAT scores to determine admission. ACT The ACT is offered nationally five times a year at many locations including our campus. Registration forms are available in high school counseling offices or by contacting the LSSU Counseling and Testing Center at 906-6352733. United States residents applying for academic scholarships must have their ACT scores sent prior to the April 1 scholarship deadline. Transfer Students Transfer students must possess a 2.0 cumulative college GPA and be eligible to return to your former college(s). If you have completed fewer than 19 semester (29 quarter) hours of credit, you must send an official high school transcript or GED scores in addition to your college transcript (and ACT scores if you graduated from high school within 26 months of the semester of entry). Contact the Registrar's Office or high school guidance office to have an official transcript mailed to our 22 • Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2231 ..... �Admissions Office. Transcripts sent via facsimile or hand delivered are not considered official. All transcripts become the property of Lake Superior State University and are not returnable. Your complete application should be submitted at least 30 days prior to the semester of entry. Transfer students denied admission may reapply after taking additional courses that raise their overall GPA to above a 2.0. Credit Evaluations Official evaluation of transfer credit is made as quickly as possible after you are admitted. The Admissions Office will help you with an unofficial transcript review at your request. .., If a course taken at another institution is not offered at Lake State, elective credit may be granted for that course. Elective credits may be applied toward degree requirements but may not be used to satisfy any specific course requirement. D grades are transferred only under the following conditions: " 1. a 2.00 or greater cumulative GPA, or 2. being granted unconditional admission as a full-time student. Some academic departments do not accept transferred D grades as replacements for required courses. In those cases, the departmental major courses must be repeated. Courses not accepted by a department may be applied as elective credit where possible. The Admissions Office completes transfer credit evaluations. The decision on courses and transfer credit granted may be appealed first to the academic dean and then to the provost. Provisional Credit Credit earned at an institution not listed in the American Council of Education's publication, Accredited Institutions of Post-Secondary Education is granted provisionally. You must complete at least 15 semester hours of credit with a cumulative GPA of 2.00 at LSSU before provisional credits will become part of your permanent record.

University College Lake Superior State University has a long-term commitment to the academic and personal success of all our students. The University College serves three functions which assure students can enroll in and complete the relevant coursework and programs. Access to higher education is offered via the University Studies program. Students from the Eastern Upper Peninsula whose academic background approaches, but does not meet Lake State admission standards, can get their Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2231 • 23 �start in higher education via the University Studies program in the University College. As a University Studies student you will be assigned an academic advisor who understands your situation. Your advisor will work closely with you to make sure you are enrolled in appropriate courses. The University College (UC) provides academic support for the entire campus. The UC operates the Learning Center (described below) as well as several other tutoring and support programs. Students enrolled in associate' s degrees have access to the Office of Student Accommodation and Support Services, which provides tutoring, advising and supplemental instruction. Occupational education is the goal for many students. They seek workplace-relevant programs designed to open the door to goodpaying technical positions. Such programs also promote the economic growth of the entire community. The UC oversees the development and operation of academic programs at the one- or two-year level. Learning Center The Learning Center, located in the KJS Library, offers academic support services to all enrolled students at LSSU, at all levels of learning (freshman through graduate). Tutoring and supplemental instruction (a.k.a. study sessions) are available for may preparatory, 100- and 200-level courses across the disciplines. The Learning Center's Writing Lab tutors assist you with your writing needs while the math lab tutors help you overcome your math frustrations. Seminars on topics such as time management and study skills are held each semester to allow you to maximize your academic performance. When you visit the Learning Center, you will find more than 30 state-of-the-art computers equipped with tutorial and instructional software for many LSSU courses, as well as various word processing programs, tutorial video and audio libraries. A book lending library and study space are also available for your use. The friendly staff will be happy to assist you in reaching your academic goals. Office of Student Support Services and Accommodations (OSASS) OSASS provides two functions for its students. If you are enrolled in an associate's or certificate-level program, you can contact this office for assistance with coursework or help in selecting a career path. The office provides these supportive services through the Carl Perkins Vocational Education grant. In addition, students who can verify that they face a disabling condition can receive a wide range of services from OSASS. The staff arrange for specialized testing, note takers, scribes, taped texts and a variety of other auxiliary aides for students with disabilities. Students should note that official verification of a disabling condition must be on file before auxiliary aides and accommodations can be provided. If you do have a disabling condition, or if you think you may have a condition such as a learning disability, please contact OSASS as soon as possible. Former Students Former full-time Lake State students who stop taking classes for two semesters or more or attend another college or university (not including summer) must apply for readmission before the semester of re-entry. There is no application fee. If you attended another college since leaving Lake State, you must submit official transcripts and meet Lake State's transfer student admissions policy. 24 • Lake Supertor State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2231 �Guest Students Students enrolled at another college or university may be admitted to Lake State for one semester as a guest student. An extension of one additional semester may be granted for extenuating circumstances. If you intend to enroll full time for more than one semester, you must submit an Application for Admission as a transfer student. Guest students assume responsibility for determining if Lake State courses apply to their program at the college from which they intend to graduate. Canadian Students If you are an Ontario student applying on the basis of high school records, you are evaluated on your ACT score and grade point average for all A- and G-level courses. Two grading scales are used when evaluating Ontario secondary school applicants (see table). OAC and A-level courses are considered more demanding and their contents more appropriate preparation for university-level courses. B- and W-level courses are never included in the grade point average. Additional information for Ontario secondary school students is available in the Ontario Student Handbook published by the Admissions Office. If you are a Canadian applicant from a province other than Ontario, your application is evaluated based on the education system in your province. If you completed grade 13 or OAC courses before September 1990, you will receive transfer credit at the University for each course in which your final mark was at least a 60 percent. Transfer credit is not given for any OAC courses taken after September 1990. However, completion of OAC courses prepares some students to earn credit through testing. (See section titled "Credit by Examination"). Foreign Students (Non-Canadian) Applicants must satisfy entrance requirements comparable to those of United States students. All credentials written in a language other than English must be accompanied by certified English translations. A notarized financial statement is required before a Certificate of Eligibility (Form I-20) will be issued. This statement must include the amount of money available per year and the source(s). Inclusion of false information in the financial statement is grounds for dismissal. Beyond the financial statement, the student's sponsor or sponsoring agency must provide a letter assuming responsibility for all of the student's educational and living expenses while studying in the United States. Foreign student scholarships are not available, and employment opportunities for foreign students are restricted by government regulations. Applicants should not consider themselves admitted to the University until they have provided all documents required by the University and have received an official letter granting admission. Following the letter granting admission, the Form I-20 is sent, as required by the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service. Foreign students are required to purchase a health and accident insurance policy for each year in residence.

Students not meeting Lake State's English proficiency requirement must enroll in English as a second language program. Part-time Enrollment You may enroll as a part-time student and take up to 11 credits per semester in courses for which you have sufficient academic background. A part-time student not seeking financial aid or a degree or certificate does not have to formally apply for admission. As a non-admitted part-time student, you are not assigned a faculty advisor. You are encouraged to seek assistance in selecting courses from the appropriate academic schools. Current high school students should refer to the section regarding dual enrollment. Tech Prep The national tech prep movement is supported at Lake State. As a testimony of its institutional support, grades earned in applied high school science and mathematics courses contribute to the high school GPA computed for university admission. Tech prep, with its emphasis upon curricular integration between secondary and postsecondary educational institutions, helps Lake State create a broader array of educational options for our students. Lake Superior State University has articulation agreements with area high schools to enhance applied and career educational opportunities at the post-secondary level. In tandem with its regional secondary education partners, Lake State has created pathways to applied education for specified curricula in business and technology. University course credits count toward degree requirements for high school work if certain competendes are met. Check with your high school guidance counselor or a Lake State admissions officer to verify whether a specific course may apply. ..J ._J w ....... l....J __, Dual Enrollment for High School Students Knowing that some talented high school students will benefit from taking university courses while in high school, selected students may take specific courses at Lake State.

Placement Testing ACT scores will be used to place students in freshman English and mathematics courses (see table). Students not required to provide ACT scores would take a placement test before scheduling classes. Students with high ACT or placement scores are invited to enroll in honors English. High scores in mathematics will also allow students to enroll in higher-level math courses. Students with low scores in English, reading and mathematics will be required to take upgrading courses. Students who do not successfully meet reading requirements by their sophomore level (26 credits) will be limited to a 13credit load (including reading courses) until they successfully comple their reading courses. Transfer students without appropriate course work in English and mathematics (see degree requirements) are also required to take placement tests.

Room and Board A variety of housing facilities are available. If you are enrolled at LSSU for 12 credit hours or more, there are mandatory policies that apply. 52 • Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2273 - �If you are unmarried and/ or a nonveteran enrolled in 12 hours or more and are within 27 calendar months of your high school graduation, you must reside in a University residence hall. High school graduation dates are assumed to be June 1 for this purpose. The exceptions are: 1. 2. 3. If you live with your parents within a 60-mile radius or the three-county (Chippewa, Luce and Mackinac) service area of the University. An exception application is available in the Housing Office and must be approved by the Housing director. If you are exempted in writing by the Housing director when residence hall space is filled. If you have unusual financial or health problems. Permission must be granted by the vice president for Student Programs and Services. The University reserves the right to assign all students within the residence halls. Housing preferences are considered according to the dates of receipt of application. Freshmen are usually accorded priority in residence hall assignments and upperclassmen hold priority in apartment assignments. ; The University recognizes that exceptions to these policies may arise. Requests for permission to live off-campus will be considered by the vice president for student programs and services, who shall apply the following criteria to a request to live off campus for financial reasons: "Financial hardship" is a situation in which the total resources of the student and family added to the total financial aid available from the University does not equal the dollar amount budgeted by the Financial Aid Office as the minimum required for on-campus residency. In such a situation, there are two alternatives: a) withdrawal from the dormitory orb) with- drawal from the University. An example is a student whose financial situation changed suddenly during the year (perhaps due to the death of a parent) and who applies for assistance after the aid program is depleted. A number of student campus apartments in the Student Village and Townhouses are available. Married students or groups of single students desiring these accommodations should contact the Housing director. The University reserves the right to transfer students to the Townhouses or the Student Village during the year. Such transfers are normally made between semesters.

The Student-Faculty Relations Committee provides a forum for resolving conflicts between students and faculty members which may arise with classroom or course-related activities, policies or procedures. The committee will not consider cases involving ADA compliance or any other matter it deems inappropriate. This committee is strictly an informal mediation body which will forward recommendations for resolution to the parties involved (with a copy to the executive vice president and provost). Membership. The University president appoints the committee membership to two-year terms. There are four faculty representatives (at least one from each college) and four student representatives. The chair is chosen by the committee membership. Procedures 1. If a student (or group of students) wishes to raise an issue related to a course which he/ she is taking or has taken (normally within one semester), the student should attempt to resolve the issue at the student/ faculty, department head or appropriate college dean level. If the matter cannot be resolved at the lowest possible levels, the student may appeal to the Student-Faculty Relations committee informing them of the problem. In exceptional cases, the student may approach the Student-Faculty Relations Committee directly. 2. To bring an issue before the Student-Faculty Relations committee, the student must notify the Student-Faculty Relations Committee in writing. This document must clearly explain the situation and include the student's name, current address, a message telephone number and times when the student is available to meet with the committee. Supporting documentation may be included as well. The written appeal should be submitted directly to the committee chair. The Executive Vice President and Provost's Office will know Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2273 • 55 �the name of the committee chair. 3. Once the committee members have had an opportunity to review the student's concern, they will conduct an informal fact-finding process. As a part of the process, the student will be invited to meet with the committee for further clarification. This meeting will be 20 minutes in length with 10 minutes of question and answer by the committee. The other party will also be invited to meet with the committee following the same format. Both parties will then be asked to meet together with the committee in an effort to foster communication, clarification and resolution. The most desirable arrangement would be for this step to occur at one setting. The committee will strive to be as expeditious as possible. There may be extenuating circumstances such as semester break or summer recess. 4. If there is no resolution after this joint meeting of the parties involved, or if the outcome of this process is not acceptable to the student or the faculty member, he/ she may appeal to the executive vice president and provost of the University. ...J 5. The committee will keep no permanent records. 56 • Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2273 ...J �Computer Services LSSU Computing offers a variety of services and programs for students.

J ..J ..... ....J ....... . ., ... ..... ._, �Graduation Procedures Degree candidacy procedure: Two semesters before students plan to complete degree requirements and graduate, they must submit an appropriate departmental degree audit for each major and minor, and a Declaration of Candidacy for Degree to the assistant to the provost in the Academic Records Office. The necessary forms are available at the student's major departmental office. The departmental Degree Audit for a student's major or minor specifies all required courses that have been or must be completed. The audit must be signed by the school chair and/ or dean of the college offering the major or minor program. Course substitutions and waivers of departmental degree program requirements may be granted only by the dean of the college offering the major or minor program. Exceptions to specific general education requirements may be granted only by the Scholastic Standards Committee. Such exceptions are infrequently made. A petition for exceptions to general education requirements is initiated with the assistant to the provost. The assistant to the provost checks students' Degree Audits, after which a preliminary verification of the Degree Audit is sent to each student and respective school chair. Students are responsible for examining this verification and requesting clarification of anything that is not consistent with their records or understanding. From the Declaration of Candidacy for Degree forms submitted by students, a potential graduate list is created for each semester. Names for the commencement program and diploma will be the official, legal name as listed in the records of the University. The names of students who are listed in the annual commencement program are also compiled from Declaration of Candidacy for Degree forms. Students may not be listed in the commencement program unless their Degree Candidacy Form is filed with the assistant to the provost six weeks prior to commencement. Students are expected to attend commencement exercises unless excused by the assistant to the provost. Students completing degree requirements during the summer may participate in commencement the previous semester if their degree candidacy form is received six weeks prior to commencement. After grades are received at the end of each semester, Degree Audits will be updated for all students completing credit and who have a Degree Candidacy Form on file. When all requirements specified on the Degree Audit are fulfilled, the college dean and/ or school chair and assistant to the provost give a final approval. Names of these graduates are then sent to the president for approval by the Board of Trustees. Subsequently, a diploma is provided to each student. Diploma charge: There is no charge for the first diploma from the University. A fee is charged for replacement diplomas. Students completing graduation requirements in the fall semester or summer, or who otherwise need documentation of completion before their diploma is available, will receive a letter certifying that they have completed degree requirements. Additionally, official University transcripts will be sent to any employer, graduate university, or elsewhere, as requested by the graduate. Official transcripts will not be mailed to students. Graduation with honors: Honors graduates must earn at least 32 credits at Lake State. All credits with grade points completed at Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2012 • 65 �other colleges (percentages are converted to letter grades) will be figured in computing grade point averages for honors diplomas and medallions at LSSU.

Program Description: Career Description: Geology deals with the dynamic Earth and its physical, chemical and biologic history. It involves the study of changes that are taking and have taken place and the forces that cause these changes. For example, geologists interpret the movements of the continents over geologic time and the formation of mountains, volcanoes and other features of the Earth's surface. Geologists attempt to understand our physical environment from which we derive most of the natural resources essential to civilization. They investigate the processes that led to the formation of mineral deposits, and oil, gas and coal. They also study environmental change throughout the history of the Earth and how that change and the development of life are related. Geologists attempt to predict natural disasters such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides, and they are very active in modeling groundwater flow to develop water reserves for municipalities and to protect groundwater from contammation. Geologists study the constraints imposed by nature and apply their knowledge to achieve harmony between the human race and its environment. Energy Fuels Exploration Geologist - searches worldwide for petroleum, gas, coal. Career opportunities are with integrated energy fuels exploration companies and government agencies. Mineral Exploration and Production Geologist - studies the origin, occurrences and extraction of metallic and non-metallic mineral resources such as gold, iron, uranium, diamonds, clay and limestone. Career opportunities are with many different kinds of companies and government agencies. Paleontologist - studies the origin and evolution of life through time and its applications to interpreting the geologic record. Career opportunities are with energy companies, museums, universities, government agencies. Geophysicist - uses non-destructive methods to determme the electrical, magnetic, gravimetric and seismic properties of earth with applications to exploration and environmental concerns. Career opportunities are with integrated energy, mineral and environmental companies, consulting firms and government agencies. Environmental Geologist/ Hydrogeologist - studies surface and groundwater supplies and contamination; flooding and land slide potential; and environmental quality issues such as chemical contammation of soils and solid waste disposal. Career opportunities are with companies in many industries, government agencies, and consulting firms. Teacher - teaches geology and earth science in elementary and secondary schools and many specialized fields of geology at the college level. 132 • Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2441 ..... - �Geology Geology Bachelor of Science (60 Credits) 4 Physical Geology I Physical Geology II 4 4 Historical Geology Structural Geology & Geologic 4 Graphics 4 Crystallography and Mineralogy GE221 Mineralogy & Petrography 4 GE222 Optical Mineralogy 3 GE321 Introduction to Geophysics 4 GE331 Invertebrate Paleontology I 3 GE351 Invertebrate Paleontology II 3 GE352 6 Field Geology GE436 Igneous and Metarnorphic GE422 Petrography 3 3 Sedimentary Petrography GE423 4 GE461 Stratigraphy & Sedimentation 4 Economic Geology I GE471 3 GE472 Economic Geology II (31 ·32 Credits) Support Courses General Chemistry I 5 CH115 General Chemistry II 4 CH116 Intro. to Microcomputer Applications CS101 3 or Survey of Computer Science CS121 Principles of Statistical Methods MA207 3 College Algebra MA111 and Calculus for Business and Life MA112 Sciences 7-8 or MA151 Calculus I and Calculus II MA152 Calculus I & Calculus II PH221 Elements of Physics I and Elements of Physics II PH222 8 or Applied Physics for PH231 Engineers and Scientists I and Applied Physics for PH232 Engineers and Scientists II Free elective credits and general education requirements must be completed so that at least 124 semester credits have been earned.

Program Description: Career Description: Most pharmacy schools require students to take two years of prepharmacy preparation prior to being admitted to their professional program. Admission into the professional pharmacy programs is very competitive and is based, to a large extent, on grades in specific required courses. Many pharmacy colleges also require applicants to take the Pharmacy College Admission Test (P.C.A.T.). This exam is generally taken midway through your second prepharmacy year. Community Pharmacist - practices in local pharmacies, professional health centers, hospitals, nursing homes or neighborhood health centers. Pre-pharmacy requirements vary greatly between different colleges that offer professional programs in pharmacy. In general, most require a pre-pharmacy program that emphasizes math and science as well as strong communication skills. Recently, a majority of the nation's schools began to move toward awarding the doctor of pharmacy (Pharm.D.) as the only professional degree in pharmacy. Because many pharmacy curricula are currently being modified, prepharmacy requirements are also subject to change. The modifications in professional pharmacy curricula, combined with the variability in pre-pharmacy requirements, make it imperative for a pre-pharmacy student to determine the requirements for admission at the schools he or she desires to attend. A prepharmacy curriculum at Lake Superior State University can then be designed to help you obtain your goals. It is your responsibility to contact the directors of admissions at the pharmacy schools to which you are planning to apply so you can remain informed of their most recent requirements for admission.

Shannon Staff Sheri Davie, Secretary Legal Assistant (Paralegal) Profession: Legal Assistant Program Offerings: The legal assistant profession is one of the occupations projected to grow the fastest through the year 2005 according to the U.S. Department of Labor. A legal assistant (or paralegal) is a valued member of the legal team and works under the supervision of attorneys. The legal assistant profession is both challenging and offers many career advancement opportunities. There are four different degrees or offerings in legal assistant studies. They are as follows: This program is designed to train qualified legal assistants capable of working in a variety of work environments. Consequently, the role and job duties of a legal assistant vary depending on the areas of law and work environment in which a legal assistant is employed. Such diversity, varied challenges and employment possibilities are what makes the legal assistant profession so interesting and rewarding. For instance, legal assistants are employed in law firms; corporations; financial institutions; government (federal, tribal, state or local); courts and mediation systems; real estate offices and title companies; insurance companies; special interest groups; prosecutor and public defender offices; educational institutions; financial service organizations; credit and collection agencies; and service, consulting or publishing companies. 1. a four-year baccalaureate degree in legal assistant studies with an emphasis in legal administration, criminal law, personal injury, labor law, legislative/ constitutional law or a selected minor as approved by the legal assistant studies coordinator; 2. a two-year associate' s degree in legal assistant studies; 3. a post-baccalaureate (one-year) certificate in legal assistant studies (which is available to students who already have a bachelor's degree in some other discipline and wish to make a career change or advancement); or 4. a minor in legal assistant studies which can complement various majors (and may also be helpful to students who are planning on' attending law school). For further information on each of these programs, please see the appropriate curriculum descripti.on pages in this Catalog. 226 • Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2217 ~ ._. __. �School of Social Sciences Program Highlights: nity members throughout northern Michigan (as well as faculty) provide guidance on curriculum, graduate placement, and other matters relating to the legal assistant program at LSSU The strengths or special features of the legal assistant studies program at LSSU include the following: • • • numerous law courses are offered so that students gain substantial knowledge in various areas of the law law courses are practical "how to" courses taught by attarneys, judges and others who have expertise in the areas in which they teach an internship or practicum is available in a law office or other legal environment so that students gain valuable on-thejob experience which can lead to greater job opportunities (in fact, a number of graduates have obtained employment at their internship site) • the program has been in existence at LSSU since 1983 and adheres to high educational standards • the areas of ethics, legal research and legal writing (which are vital skills in the legal environment) are given particular emphasis • annual alumni surveys demonstrate excellent job placement throughout the United States • a legal assistant student/ alumni association enhances the educational experience through its various activities (e.g., mock trials; guest speakers from the legal community; seminars; social events) • the teaching emphasis is on preparing legal assistants to work within varied legal and related environments and to learn how to solve real-life legal problems • an advisory committee consisting of judges, lawyers, legal assistants and various commu- ~ ~ • • LSSU is a member of the American Association for Paralegal Educators the program coordinator (an attorney) is on the Certifying Board for the National Association of Legal Assistants (and is also. a member of various professional organizations, such as the American Bar Association, Legal Assistant Association of Michigan, Michigan Indian Judicial Association, etc.) Legal Assistant Studies Legal Assistant Studies Advisory Committee Role: The advisory committee provides guidance regarding curriculum matters, program needs and professional trends and opportunities as it relates to the legal assistant studies program at LSSU.

The program provides students with both a broad liberal arts education and the important skills they need to begin a career or pursue additional education. Faculty Professors Dr. Richard Conboy Dr. Gary Johnson Associate Professor Ms.Carol.Andary Assistant Professor Dr. James Heasley Staff Ms. Judy Bawks, Secretary Ms. Sheri Davie, Secretary Student Organization: The Political Science Club is a nonpartisan student organization that promotes discussion and understanding of current political issues. The club sponsors speakers, arranges debates between political candidates, hosts student forums with the University president ("Pizza with the President"), participates in debates with students from Algoma University College in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario ("CanAm Debates"), sponsors voter registration and get-out-thevote drives, and participates in a variety of other activities related to contemporary politics. Membership is open to all LSSU students. Since students of political science follow diverse career paths, political science majors at LSSU choose from one of three tracks or concentrations: general political science, pre-law, and public administration. Each concentration provides a combination of knowledge and skills uniquely appropriate for those with particular career goals. Internships - which involve supervised practical work experience in an off-campus location are available and encouraged. Internships may be carried out with local, state (or provincial) or federal agencies in the Sault Ste. Marie area. Other internship opportunities are available in Washington, Lansing, Toronto and Ottawa. One of the most exciting of these opportunities is the Washington Semester Program, a cooperative arrangement with American University in Washington, D.C. Students selected to participate in this program spend a semester taking classes and working in Washington. One of the innovative features of the program is the replacement of the traditional minor field of study with a set of cognate (related) courses spread across several disciplines. The cognate requirements for each concentration are tailored to meet the specific needs of those within the concentration. The cognates complement a student's courses in political science by providing important background (such as history, philosophy and economics) and valuable skills (such as computer, research, writing and speaking skills). A second innovative feature is a required year-long senior seminar. As part of this seminar, students analyze their career goals, prepare a resume and write a senior thesis. Since writing a thesis requires discipline, perseverance and the ability to integrate, the senior seminar serves as a capstone for the student's education. Students make public presentations of their theses prior to graduation. Family, friends and the University community are invited to these presentations. 228 • Lake Superior State University• 1-888-800-LSSU, ext. 2217 ...... �School of Social Sciences Psychology is the systematic study of methods to understand, predict and influence human behavior and mental processes. The major provides students with exposure to the areas that define contemporary scientific psychology. The psychology major helps a student develop analytical thinking and communication skills which are applicable to a variety of careers. Many psychology majors pursue gradu-· ate degrees. Psychology electives enable students to construct a program of study consistent with their professional goals. The bachelor of science and bachelor of arts degrees differ only in the nature of the cognate courses that are selected. The bachelor of science degree requires science courses and the bachelor of arts degree requires foreign language courses.

Dobbertin Sociology is the scientific study of human social groups, from families to societies. Sociologists examine how variables~ such as culture, laws and customs, influence persons within society. Sociologists also investigate how people, through interaction, sustain or change society. The knowledge acquired through sociology is useful in a number of careers, including human services, law enforcement, corrections, elementary and secondary teaching, business administration, public administration, law, and medicine, among others.

(This information is also included in the Viewbook). Many changes are occurring in health care and other professions. New skills and knowledge are needed for the nursing graduate to provide quality nursing care. Some of the major changes and how they influence the role of the nurse are shown in the chart below. For students with college-level achievement, the opportunity will be offered, by means of examination, to obtain course credit or placement into an advanced course. High school academic subjects include a minimum of one unit of biology, one of chemistry, three of English and two of algebra. Additional science and mathematics courses are highly recommended. Students complete one year in prenursing before making application to the Department of Nursing for admission to the nursing major. Admission is based upon 1) filing a Declaration of Intent to enter the nursing program by February 1 of the spring prior to fall admission, 2) successful completion of selected pre-nursing courses, and 3) academic achievement. Change Nursing, B.S. Four-Year Program Pre-Licensure Track In response to these changes, faculty in the Department of Nursing have been carefully reviewing the current nursing curriculum. Currently, students are spending almost half of one semester learning basic nursing skills such as bed-making, transferring patients from bed to chair, and giving complete bed baths. Given the limited number of hours available for nursing students to obtain the essential knowledge and skills needed for their success upon graduation, the LSSU nursing faculty strongly believe that the basic skills (those previously listed and others) would best be obtained by the student prior to admission to the nursing program. Requiring competence in basic skills prior to admission would "free-up" valuable classroom and clinical time to devote to the knowledge and skills essential for the nurse in the 21st century.

Lake Superior State University • 5 �A Look at LSSU Established in 1946 to address the needs of returning World War II veterans and to provide educa­ tional opportunities to the people of the Eastern Upper Peninsula, Lake Superior State University still embodies the essence of the early days. A personal education in a safe and friendly environment remains a hallmark of today's LSSU. from the original class of 272 to more than 3,400 students. Our beautiful 115-acre campus overlooks the Michigan and Ontario twin cities of Sault Ste. Marie, the St. Mary's River, and the world famous Soo Locks. The school is located at the beginning of Interstate 75 which ends in the Florida Keys. There are 14 buildings on the Na­ tional Historic Register contributing to the University's sense of tradi­ tion. This unique architectural blend is a reminder of the "weapons to plowshares" history of the setting. 3 Community: Sault Ste. Marie (pop. 18,000) is one of the oldest cities in North America, having begun as a fur trading center in the early 17th century. A Jesuit mission was estab­ lished here in 1641, and Father Mar­ quette founded the first permanent settlement 27 years later, within the boundaries of what was to become Michigan. The Sault celebrated its 300th birthday in 1968. The Sault Branch was rechristened Lake Superior State College of Michigan Technical University in 1966. Autonomy arrived for LSSC in 1970. University status was granted in 1987 to the state's smallest public institution of higher learning. Enrollment has grown «*» The campus served as Ft. Brady starting in 1894 after the fort was relocated from the banks of the St. Mary's. The fort was deactivated in 1944 and, thanks to the efforts of local volunteers and leadership at Michigan College of Mining & Technology in Houghton, opened in the fall of that year as the Sault Ste. Marie Residence Center of MCMT. Our sister city, Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, is a cultural, recreational, social and entertainment center. The combined population of the Twin Saults (98,000) allows for an international flavor abounding with the opportunities of a city, and the safety and comfort of a small town. Expectations for Student Learning Lake Superior State University utilizes a Student Academic Achievement Plan developed by the faculty to enhance continuous quality improvement and to meet the Assessment Initiative of the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. The intent of this plan is to document student learning at Lake Superior State University both in the major program and across the general education requirements. This continuous evaluation process works to assure high quality teaching and effective student learning. The faculty at Lake Superior State University have collectively agreed upon the characteristics of the educated person the institution hopes to graduate and have identified outcomes that can be used to document these attributes. The following are areas that the faculty have deemed essential to a liberal education and have value for the students in their lives as responsible citizens: communication skills, mathematics, cultural diversity, humanities, and social and natural science. Students who complete the general education courses at Lake Superior State University will be able to 6 • Lake Superior State University demonstrate attributes of the general education outcomes. Students attending Lake Superior State University can expect commitment by the University to document and enhance student learning. Through the assessment process, the University demonstrates its commitment to improving student learning and ensures that when students graduate they have attained specific attributes and abilities. Lake Superior State University expects a commitment on the part of its students to actively participate in the learning process. �Accreditations Lake Superior State University is accredited by the following agencies: • • • The Higher Learning Commission (a commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools), 30 North LaSalle Street, Suite 2400, Chicago, Illinois 606022504.

Semester Course Selection Registration for the next semester takes place near the end of your current semester. 12 • Lake Superior State University �Three weeks before registration, course schedules listing times, dates and locations will be available online at: http://www.lssu.edu/ scheduling, and in Anchor Access. Review the class offerings, read the instructions for scheduling, and meet with your advisor to select courses for the next semester. You must sign up for classes for the semester in which you will be doing the actual work. Please review all the registartion information carefully as it has dates for registration according to class level, dates for tuition payments, and information regarding pre­ requisites, corequisites and other course requirements. It is your responsibility to ensure that the classes you take count toward your degree program. You may, however, be required to take developmental courses (course numbers beginning with "0", such as MATH081), which will not count toward graduation. Test Scores: When you apply for admission, you will send your ACT score to Lake Superior State Univer­ sity. Your score determines the level of English and math courses into which you will be placed. If you have been out of high school more than 26 months and have not taken the ACT, you will take placement tests at the Testing Center at Lake Superior State to determine your placement in English and math.

Students on academic probation should not take more than 15 credits. Prerequisites: Many courses require that you complete English and math, or other preliminary classes before signing up to take these courses. If you have not met the prerequisite, you will not be al­ lowed to register for the class. If you registered for a course, and later are found not to have the necessary pre­ requisite, the instructor may drop you from the class with an N grade. Some courses require that you earn a C or better in prerequisite courses before registering for the next course. Exceptions may be made only by the dean of your college or the instructor of the subsequent class. Repeats: You may repeat a class in which you earn a grade other than "W" or "N" only tzvice without special permission and only under thefollozuing conditions: 1. Courses transferred from other institutions are included in this policy. 2. Both the original and repeat grades will show on the tran­ script, but hours earned toward graduation will only count once. 3. For the purpose of calculating the cumulative grade point average, only the grade of the last attempt will be used, if the last class was taken at LSSU. If you transfer in a class to repeat a class from LSSU, the LSSU grade will be removed from your grade point average. 4. To repeat a course more than twice, you must obtain the per­ mission of the course instructor and the appropriate dean. Per­ mission is granted only under exceptional circumstances. This policy began fall 2001 for all new students either as transfer or new freshmen. Policy on substitutions or waivers for failed classes: If you fail a class required for your degree program, you must repeat the class and receive a passing grade. If the failed class is no longer offered because of program changes and/or course deletions, the dean may approve a substitution or waiver recom­ mended by the academic chair. The chair must provide reasons for the recommendation on the substitu­ tion/ waiver form which is sent to the dean's office.

Non-attendance of the first class: Your instructor may drop you from a course if you do not attend or if you do not call the instructor before classes begin. The course instructor will fill out a Drop Form and notify you if you are dropped from the course. Adding/Dropping courses through the sixth day of the semester: You may add or drop courses online us­ ing Anchor Access through the sixth day of the fall or spring semester. If you are attending a summer se­ mester, you can add or drop courses online through the fourth day of the semester. If you wish to add a course that is full or without having the neces­ sary prerequisites, you must contact the instructor for that course to request permission. If the instructor approves the request, he/she will complete an Instructor Override for you. You must then go online and register for that course. Courses dropped through the sixth day (fourth for summer semester) will not appear on your academic transcript. Adding courses after the sixth day of the semester: Online registration ends on the sixth day of the semes­ ter (fourth for summer semester). If you wish to add a course after this date, you must have the instructor's permission. You will need to com­ plete a Schedule Adjustment Form, have the instructor sign it giving permission, and then process the form at the Student Service Counter in the Fletcher Center for Student Services. Dropping courses after the sixth day of the semester: You may drop a full-semester course dur­ ing the first eight weeks (40 days) of the semester. For courses run­ ning less than a full semester (e.g. seven-week class), check online for the official drop dates — the time period for dropping will be ap­ proximately equal to one-half of the course instructional period. If you drop a course, you will receive an N grade on your academic transcript. N grades are not counted in the academic GPA. If you wish to drop a course as of the seventh day of the fall or spring semester (fifth for summer), you must have the instructor's signa­ ture. Please complete a Schedule Adjustment Form, have the instruc­ tor sign it, then process the form at the Student Service Counter in the Fletcher Center for Student Services. To drop a class after the eight-week drop requires extenuating circum­ stances, and you must obtain a Withdrawal form. You must: 1. Complete the form (including listing a reason for the drop). 2. Get the instructor's signature and the instructor's recommen­ dation. 3. Take the completed form to the appropriate dean (of the class being dropped), for his/her review and decision. 4. If the dean approves the drop, you must then take the from to the registrar's office for pro­ cessing. A W grade will appear on your permanent record and will not af­ fect your GPA. Class attendance: Regular class attendance and active participation in classes are important elements in the learning process. You are at the University primarily for the sake of intellectual growth and develop­ ment. Attendance and participation provide appropriate opportunities for the evaluation of your progress. You are personally responsible for the satisfactory completion of the course work prescribed by your instructors. This means that you are expected to attend classes regularly, and that you are responsible for the work assigned in class, the material covered in class, and for participa­ tion in class activities (including discussion and listening) designed by the instructor as part of the 14 • Lake Superior State University learning experience. However, mere physical attendance should not be a criterion for evaluation of your performance. Participation in an official Univer­ sity function is an excused absence when approved by the provost You will not be penalized for such participation. You are responsible for work missed and must confer with your instructor on this matter. Complete withdrawal: If you are a full-time student and drop all of your classes during the first eight weeks of the semester, you may be eligible for tuition refund. To receive any refund, fill out a With­ drawal Form at the Student Service Counter. This office will authorize your refund from the Business Office. (Please check online for the refund policy.) Before leaving, be sure you have cleared any holds on your records so you can return at a later date or have transcripts of your academic records sent. Grading System Grade Point Average (GPA): To calculate your GPA for a semes­ ter, divide the total quality points earned by the GPA hours. GPA hours include those earned or failed but not those classes taken for credit/no credit. Cumulative GPA is calculated by dividing total quality points earned by the number of GPA hours carried in all semesters. If you repeat a course, count only the credits carried and the points of the last grade earned. Just the grade of your last attempt is calculated in your GPA.

Examples of extenu­ ating circumstances may include health issues, death of a parent/ spouse/child, or military service. Appropriate documentation is required. An I grade can be issued in a course, that by design, cannot be completed in one semester. You must make up the work by the date specified by the instructor. If a date is not given, the student will have a maximum of two semesters (exclud­ ing summer semesters) to complete the requirements for removing the I grades. Two semesters after the issuance of the I grade, if the pro­ fessor has not completed a Grade Change Form or requested an extension, the Registrar's Office will change the I grade to an F grade. N and W grades: These grades are given to those classes that you have officially dropped (N) or withdrawn (W). Grade change: You may request your instructor to review and change a grade within two semes­ ters after completion. The instruc­ tor completes and sends a Grade Change Form to the Registrar's Office. Dean's List: Full-time students car­ rying at least 12 graded credits of college-level courses (100 level or above) in a semester with a grade point average of 3.500 or higher, and NOT having any incomplete (I) grades, will earn Dean's List hon­ ors, which acknowledge outstand­ ing academic achievement. If a grade is changed, prior to the conclusion of the following semes­ ter, because of "instructor error" or because the student has completed work for a course which received an I grade, the student will be consid­ ered for Dean's List honors. If the grade change is for some other reason or occurs after the con­ clusion of the following semester, the student will not be reevaluated for Dean's List honors. Effective fall semester 2006, stu- dents earning Dean's List honors will have this designation noted on their LSSU academic transcript. Credit/No Credit Courses You may enroll in some courses on a credit/no credit basis if you are in good academic standing. The fol­ lowing conditions exist: 1. One course per semester may be taken as credit/no credit. 2. Only 12 credits of courses taken as credit/no credit may be ap­ plied toward a degree. 3.

Instructors are not notified that you are taking a course as credit/no credit; the CR or NC credit is assigned based on the grade your instructor submits. A student who cheats is subject to dismissal from the University. If, in the opinion of the faculty member involved, such action is warranted, he or she will notify the chair of the Scholastic Standards Commit­ tee and the student in writing. The Scholastic Standards Committee will then conduct a hearing in such a manner that the student is given due process. If the committee decides that dismissal is warranted, the student shall have five school days to appeal that decision to the provost of the University.

Policy The University is an equal oppor­ tunity employer and educator and prohibits discrimination, including harassment, on the basis of race, color, national origin or ancestry, gender, age, disability, religion, height, weight, sexual preference, marital status, or veteran status. In carrying out this policy, the University complies with all federal and state laws and regulations pro­ hibiting discrimination including: Executive Order 11246, the ElliottLarsen Civil Rights Act of 1976, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, The Equal Pay Act of 1963, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended by the Equal Em­ ployment Opportunity Act of 1972, and the Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978, Title IX of the Educa­ tion Amendments of 1972, Titles VII and VIII of the Public Health Ser­ vice Act, Age Discrimination in Em­ ployment Act of 1967, Sections 503 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Veteran's Assistance Act of 1972, and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. Sexual Harassment The University is committed to a policy of nondiscrimination on the basis of gender. Discrimination because of gender includes sexual harassment, which means unwel­ come sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct or communication of a sexual nature when: i. Submission to such conduct or communication is made a term or condition either explicitly or implicitly to obtain employ­ ment, public accommodations or public services, education, or housing; Submission to or rejection of such conduct or communica­ tion by an individual is used as a factor in decisions affecting such individual's employment, public accommodations or public services, education, or housing; or iii. Such conduct or communica­ tion has the purpose or effect of substantially interfering with an individual's employment, public accommodations or public services, education, or housing environment. The University is committed to the protection of the rights of all indi­ viduals and to the elimination of barriers that would prevent indi­ viduals from realizing their high­ est potential of human excellence. Sexual harassment is a particularly noxious form of discrimination that interferes with these goals and com­ mitments, and is difficult to combat due to the intimidation and destruc­ tion of self esteem of its victims. instances of discrimination and discriminatory harassment Once the University has been informed of such behavior, it will take timely and appropri­ ate steps to investigate the problem. At any step of the grievance process, time sched­ ules as outlined in the process may be extended by mutual agreement in writing. 2. With the Grievance Officer, in­ dividuals may discuss concerns they may have regarding pos­ sible discrimination or harass­ ment to learn what options are available. 3. Nonretaliation: The University not only prohibits discrimina­ tion, including harassment, but also strictly prohibits any retaliation against any indi­ vidual, who, in good faith, has registered a complaint under this procedure. Any supervi­ sor, agent, or employee of the University who, after investi­ gation, has been determined to have retaliated against any individual for using the com­ plaint procedure in this policy, will be subject to appropriate discipline up to and includ­ ing immediate discharge. If an individual believes he or she has been retaliated against for exercising his or her rights under this policy, the individ­ ual should use this complaint procedure. 4. All matters discussed in this process will be kept as confi­ dential as possible. 5. If an individual is dissatisfied with the University's investiga­ tion process or resolution, he or she may file complaints of illegal discrimination on the basis of gender (Title IX and Title VI) or disability (Section 504 and Title II of the ADA) with the Office for Civil Rights, U.S. Department of Education, Chicago, IL 60605. A Title IX, Title VI, Section 504, or Title II ADA complaint must be filed Grievance Officer The Equal Employment Opportu­ nity Officer/Affirmative Action Of­ ficer (EEO Officer) is the designated grievance officer for discrimination complaints. If any person believes that he or she has been subjected to discrimination, including harass­ ment by unlawful and unacceptable expressions, acts, attitudes and/or behaviors based on race, color, national origin or ancestry, gender, age, disability, religion, height, weight, sexual preference, marital status, or veteran status, he or she should contact Ms. Beverly White, EEO Officer, Lake Superior State University Administration Build­ ing, Sault Ste.

Ap­ plications are processed continu­ ously. When all necessary materials have arrived you will be notified of a decision as soon as possible. To complete your admission file you must submit an official high school transcript, application fee, and ACT scores (if you graduated from high school within 26 months of entering LSSU). Although ACT scores are preferred, we will also accept SAT scores. The primary factors used to de­ termine admission are cumulative grade point average (GPA), high school course curriculum, and ACT or SAT results. LSSU recommends that students follow a college pre­ paratory curriculum mirroring the Michigan Merit Curriculum. The middle 50 percent of our entering freshmen class typically have high school GPAs ranging from 2.7 to 3.3 and ACT scores ranging from 18-24. Students should feel free to submit any additional materials which may aid the Admissions Of­ fice in reviewing unusual circum­ stances which may have impacted high school performance. ACT or SAT scores will not be used in the admissions process if you gradu­ ated from high school two or more years ago. Your admission will be contingent upon satisfactory completion of current coursework and receipt of a final high school transcript with verification of graduation from an accredited school or passing on the GED. To be considered official, all transcripts and test score reports must be mailed from your high school guidance office or testing agency directly to Lake Superior State University. LSSU assigns each student an individual student identification number. Your student number will be provided to you when you are admitted. While we do not use social security numbers as your student identification, we do use it to match your application record with your other permanent records. Financial aid applications will not be processed without your social security number. Social security numbers should be included on your application for admission. Canadian and foreign student ap­ plicants should not use their social insurance number. LSSU will use your assigned student identifica­ tion number.

Evaluation is then based upon the college record. Home Schooled students Lake Superior State University does not have separate requirements for home schooled applicants. Like all applicants, home schooled students will need to provide a transcript of their high school coursework as well as ACT or SAT scores. Admis­ sion will be determined on the basis of your high school grade point average, coursework completed, and ACT or SAT scores.

Your complete application should be submitted at least 30 days prior to the semester of entry. Transfer students denied admission may reapply after taking additional courses that raise their overall GPA to above a 2.0. Credit Evaluations Official evaluation of transfer credit is made as quickly as possible after you are admitted. The Admis­ sions Office will help you with an unofficial transcript review at your request. If a course taken at another institu­ tion is not offered at LSSU, elec­ tive credit may be granted for that course. Elective credits may be ap­ plied toward degree requirements but may not be used to satisfy any specific course requirement. Courses with grades less than Cwill not transfer. The Admissions Office completes transfer credit evaluations. The decision on courses and transfer credit granted may be appealed Transfer Students Transfer students must possess a 2.0 cumulative college GPA and be eligible to return to your former college(s). If you have completed fewer than 19 semester (29 quar­ ter) hours of credit, you must send an official high school transcript or GED scores in addition to your college transcript (and ACT scores if you graduated from high school within 26 months of the semester of entry). Contact the college's Registrar's Of­ fice or high school guidance office to have an official transcript mailed to our Admissions Office.

Ontario Students Ontario student applicants must satisfy entrance requirements com­ parable to those of United States students. Please refer to the "Fresh­ men" and "Transfer" sections of the catalog for details. If you have completed grade 13 or OAC courses before September 1990, you will receive transfer credit at the University for each course in which your final mark was at least a 60 percent. Transfer credit is not given for any OAC courses taken after September 1990. However, completion of OAC courses pre­ pares some students to earn credit through testing. See section titled "Credit by Examination". Admitted Ontario students must provide verification of ability to pay in order to receive a Certificate of Eligibility for Non-Immigrant (F-l) Student Status (Form 1-20) required to attend a university in the United States. This is not an admissions requirement for Ontario students; however, an 1-20 form is required for you to cross into the U.S. to at­ tend classes. Please refer to "Verifi­ cation of Ability to Pay" section in the catalog for details. If you are a Permanent Resident or able to be in the U.S. with another form of documentation, we will need a copy of this documentation for our records. If you are a Canadian Aboriginal or Native American (excluding MELake Superior State University • 27 TIS) with at least 50% blood quan­ tum and have J-treaty privileges (carry a tribal ID), you are exempt from needing an 1-20 form. You must provide our office with a copy of your tribal ID and an official tribal-issued letter showing proof of blood quantum. Ontario students planning to attend part-time (less than 12 credits) and commute to college, will be issued a new 1-20 form each semester upon the verification of the payment of tuition and fees, or after submission of financial information as outlined above. Ontario students are required to purchase a health and accident insurance policy unless they are covered under a policy of their own or a policy with their parents. Foreign Students (Excluding Ontario Students) Foreign student applicants must satisfy entrance requirements com­ parable to those of United States students. Please refer to the "Fresh­ men" and "Transfer" section of the catalog. In addition, all foreign student credentials must be evalu­ ated by the World Education Ser­ vices (WES). Information on WES is available on-line at www.WES. org, by phone at 212-966-6311 or by e-mail at info@wes.org. Foreign ap­ plicants must also provide verifica­ tion of ability to pay, prove English proficiency, and provide proof of health and accident insurance prior to acceptance. Applicants should not consider themselves admitted to LSSU until they have provided all required documents and have received an official letter of acceptance. Follow­ ing the letter of acceptance, the 1-20 form is sent, as required by the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Services. If you are a Permanent Resident or able to be in the U.S. with another form of documentation, we will �need a copy of this documentation for our records. If you are a Canadian Aboriginal or Native American (excluding METIS) with at least 50% blood quantum and have J-treaty privi­ leges (carry a tribal ID), you are exempt from needing an 1-20 form. You must provide our office with a copy of your tribal ID and an official tribal-issued letter showing proof of blood quantum. Foreign students are required to purchase a health and accident insurance policy for each year in residence. Verification of Ability to Pay — Ontario and Foreign Students The U.S. Immigration and Natu­ ralization Services (INS) requires that LSSU have verification of your ability to pay for tuition/books and expenses before we can issue a Certificate of Eligibility for NonImmigrant (F-l) Student Status (1-20). This form is required for you to cross the border into the United States. An acceptable financial document must have been submitted not more than nine (9) months before the term you intend to enroll at LSSU. The document also needs to be current within the last 90 days. Inclusion of false information in the financial statements is grounds for dismissal. Verification may be documented by the following: personal savings or verification of loans or scholarships received, a parent or sponsor, government or sponsoring agency, or by LSSU anticipated support. As of September 1,2004, the U.S. Department of Flomeland Security (DHS) has implemented a rule re­ quiring F-l visa applicants to pay a one-time fee to supplement the ad­ ministration and maintenance costs of the Student and Exchange Infor­ mation System (SEVIS). Because we will be issuing you an initial 1-20 form, you will be required to pay this SEVIS fee. Information about payment of the fee and the process­ ing of your 1-20 form upon entry to the U.S. will be provided to you with your initial 1-20 form. Because the DHS is reviewing requirements at the time this catalog was pub­ lished, please contact the Admis­ sions Office for updates as policies are revised.

United States students attending part-time who are not seeking financial aid or a degree or certificate do not have to formally apply for admission. Canadian students wishing to attend part-time must apply for admission and be accepted into a degree program. As a non-admitted part-time stu­ dent, you are not assigned a faculty advisor. You are encouraged to seek assistance in selecting courses from the appropriate academic depart­ ments. Current high school students should refer to the section regard­ ing dual enrollment. Tech Prep The national tech prep movement is supported at LSSU. As a testimony of its institutional support, grades earned in applied high school science and mathematics courses contribute to the high school GPA computed for university admission. Tech prep, with its emphasis upon curricular integration between secondary and post-secondary educational institutions, helps Lake State create a broader array of edu­ cational options for our students. Lake Superior State University has articulation agreements with area high schools to enhance applied and career educational opportuni­ ties at the post-secondary level. In tandem with its regional secondary education partners, LSSU has cre­ ated pathways to applied education for specified curricula in busi­ ness and technology. University course credits count toward degree requirements for high school work if certain competencies are met. Check with your high school guid­ ance counselor or an LSSU admis­ sions advisor to verify whether a specific course may apply. �Dual Enrollment for High School Students Eligible students are those who are in grade 11 or 12 who are enrolled in at least one high school course, and who have passed these four subject areas of the MME: mathematics, science, reading and writing. The student who did not pass in all areas is still eligible to take courses only in the areas in which he/she has received endorsements. Both 11th and 12th graders are eli­ gible to take courses in subjects for which there are no endorsements, such as philosophy, religion, psy­ chology, sociology, anthropology, computer science, fine arts, and/or foreign language courses not offered by the district, as long as the student has taken all sections of the MEE and has met the course's prerequi­ site requirements. State endorse­ ment is not required in any specific area for this participation. Grade point average is not a determining factor in eligibility to enroll. Registration will be coordinated by the Admissions Office in conjunc­ tion with the Registrar's Office, once a student has completed the re­ quired form and has been approved as a Dual Enrollee. Students may pick up the Dual Enrollment Form from their high school guidance of­ fice, or the LSSU Admissions Office.

Lake Superior State University • 35 �Financial Aid Students are automatically considered for Board of Trustees Scholarships upon completing application to LSSU by March 1st for the following fall semester. Rewarding the scholar and meet­ ing the needs of those who apply for financial assistance is a high priority at Lake Superior State University. The doors of opportu­ nity are seldom closed because of a financial condition. You may qualify for a combina­ tion of University, state and federal programs—a financial aid packwhich may include a combi­ ag nation of scholarship, grant, loan, and/or work assistance. Full-time undergraduates take priority in aid awards. Carefully consider the full cost of your education, parental support, and savings — including sum­ mer employment — to determine your need for financial aid. If you possess excellent high school or community college grades, you are encouraged to apply for scholar­ ships regardless of need. Those with need are considered for grants, loans and/or employment based on need established from the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You can obtain information on all financial aid programs from the Financial Aid staff. Staff are available to advise you and your parents about the costs of attend­ ing the University, availability of financial aid and application procedures. Applying: You can apply for financial aid by filing a Free Ap­ plication for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on-line at www.fafsa. ed.gov. Once your FAFSA is received by LSSU and your admission is com­ plete, you will receive an "Official Offer of Award" letter from the Financial Aid Office. Scholarship recipients are usu­ ally selected based on competitive 36 • Lake Superior State University examinations, scholastic records and/or financial need. The Ameri­ can College Test (ACT) serves as the University's primary test for scholarship applicants. Test results must be on file by March 1. All freshmen who are Michigan residents are encouraged to com­ plete the Michigan State Assess­ ment Test to determine eligibility for additional state aid. Scholarship requirements: Incom­ ing freshmen must have a mini­ mum GPA of 3.0 and ACT of 19 to qualify for an LSSU scholarship. The recipient of any award must be a full-time student carrying 12 academic hours or more each semester. Satisfactory Academic Progress Requirements for the Retention of Financial Aid If you are receiving any form offinan­ cial aid, you must meet these satisfac­ tory academic progress requirements to retain your aid each semester. Financial aid regulations require that a student must make satisfac­ tory progress to remain eligible for financial aid. Financial aid pro­ grams affected by this policy are Federal Pell Grant, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Work-Study, Federal Supplemental Educational Oppor­ tunity Grant, Federal Direct Loans, Federal PLUS Loans, State of Michigan and Institutional Schol­ arships, Grants, Loan and Work Programs. The following policy is the mini­ mum requirement for all types of financial aid; however, there are some types of aid with more strin­ gent requirements (see scholarship requirements). �Qualitative Standards Every student must maintain a minumim grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 each semester to remain in good academic standing. Students not meeting the standard will be placed on academic proba­ tion for one semester. Students may be granted a second probation­ ary semester, however, students with 19 credits or more will not be granted a second probationary semester if their cumulative GPA is 1.60 or less. This standard is enforced by the University's Scholastic Standards Committee each semester. Students who do not meet the academic standard will not be eligible for aid after their probationary period. To petition the Scholastic Standards Committee for readmission, stu­ dents must follow the guidelines listed at ivzuzv.lssu.edu/advising/ handbook/AAH_6-7-0.php. Students who are notified by the Scholastic Standards Committee about their academic standing should not assume that finanical aid will automatically be reinstated if their petition is granted. Finan­ cial aid requirements are more stringent in some cases and include quantitative standards. Quantita­ tive standard appeals must be sent separately to the Financial Aid Committee. Quantitative Standards Each student's progress in credits earned will be reviewed every seUndergraduate Students Fall/Spring/S ummer Semester Enrolled Credits 12+ 11 10 9 8 7 6 5-1 Credits to be Earned 9 8 7 6 6 5 4 100% mester. The following credits must be earned in relation to the number of credits enrolled at the end of the add period: If a student does not satisfactorily meet the quantitative standard, he/she will be placed on financial aid probation for the next semester. Students may receive aid while on probation but if a student fails to meet the standard for the second consecutive semester enrolled, his/ her financial aid will be suspended. Part-time students enrolled for less than six credits must earn all credits attempted. Once financial aid is suspended, both the GPA and credit hour completion criteria must be met in subsequent semesters of six credits or more before reinstatement of aid is possible. If completion of "I" grades or other record changes warrant a reinstate­ ment, a written notice from the Registrar's Office must be pre­ sented to the Financial Aid Office by the student before eligibility is reviewed. Financial Aid Suspension: No aid will be granted once a student's eligi­ bility is suspended, including but not limited to the Federal Direct Stafford Loan, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Direct PLUS Loan, Federal WorkStudy, Federal Supplemental Edu­ cational Opportunity Grant, Federal Pell Grant, Michigan Competitive Scholarship, Michigan Adult PartTime Grant, Michigan Educational Opportunity Grant, Michigan Work Graduate Students Fall/Spring Semester Enrolled Credits 10+ 9 8 7 6 5 4-1 Credits to be Earned 7 6 6 5 4 4 100% Study and Institutional Scholarships and Grants. Financial Aid Reinstatement: To remove financial aid suspen­ sion status for qualitative reasons, a student must have attained the minimum cumulative grade point average and credit-earned require­ ments (minimum six credit hours) at Lake Superior State University, while not receiving financial aid. In addition, students who successfully complete 26 credits at a community college after being suspended at LSSU will be allowed one proba­ tionary semester upon readmission. Successful students must advise the Financial Aid Office in writing that they have met the requirements for reinstatement of the qualitative standard. Right to Appeal: A student whose aid is suspended for quantitative reasons may request reinstatement through the Financial Aid Commit­ tee. To obtain reinstatement, the student must effectively demon­ strate that their poor performance was due to some unusual circum­ stance. The quantitative appeal process is outlined at www.lssu. edu/finaid/appeals.php. Appeals should be in writing and be received immediately following the semester of the suspension. Scholarships are awarded on aca­ demic excellence and may not be reinstated by appeal. 150% Completion Rule: To qualify for federal financial aid, students must complete a program within 150% of the time frame required for the program. For example, a student working on an associate (two-year) degree must complete the degree within six semesters of full-time study. Students may not "attempt" more than 150% of the credits required for the degree. The average baccaulaureate program requires 124 credits, so the maximum number of attempted credits is 186. Appeals to this general rule must include an advisor's signed copy Lake Superior State University • 37 �of your degree audit with your anticipated graduation date. 3. If you withdraw or leave LSSU for any reason, your scholar­ ship automatically terminates. If you plan to leave for a study abroad program, internship or health reasons, you may re­ quest to have your scholarship reinstated by appealing to the Financial Aid Committee. 4. To receive the room and board component of any scholarship, you must be in the on-campus room and board program for the semester. If you leave oncampus housing, the room and board award will be termi­ nated. If you return to campus housing (you must be on the room and board plan for the full semester), you can request reinstatement of the room and board component prior to the beginning of the semester you return. General Scholarship Renewal Requirements For students offered an LSSU renewable scholarship, the following criteria must be met when reviewed each spring: 1. You must earn a minimum of 24 credits each academic year while receiving a scholarship, unless otherwise noted in your award, and the minimum cumulative GPA as required by the award. (See requirement chart for details.) 2. You must maintain enrollment each semester (fall & spring) as a continuous full time student. Enrollment for summer semes­ ter is not included.

The scholarship renewal policy is separate from the Universi­ ty's Academic Standards and Satisfactory Progress Standards for the retention of other forms of financial aid. 9.

Requirements for New Scholarships for Current Students Renewable scholarships are based on your grade level and number of credits transferred or earned at the time of your award. For example, if you are offered a renewable scholarship as a sophomore, you will generally be eligible for two additional years of scholarship. If an ending date is not stated in your offer of scholarship, please contact the Financial Aid Office if you have questions about the renewal features of your award. Except for students in their fifth year of the teaching program, scholarships are generally not available to students with more them four years of higher education or eight semesters of study.

"Financial hardship" is a situation in which the total resources of the student and family added to the total financial aid available from the University does not equal the dollar amount budgeted by the Fi­ nancial Aid Office as the minimum required for on-campus residency. In such a situation, there are two alternatives: a) withdrawal from the residence hall or b) withdrawal from the University. An example is a student whose financial situation changed suddenly during the year (perhaps due to the death of a par­ ent) and who applies for assistance after the aid program is depleted.

The Health CARE Center does bill and accepts most insurance plans for services rendered at the the Health CARE Center. We do ask that students present an insurance card at the time of service. (Please note that any service rendered offcampus is the sole responsibility of the student or parent.) Lake Superior State University has created a student plan for all stu­ dents who maintain three or more credit hours. This student health plan covers co-pays, deductibles, and non-covered services of an insurance company. Well physicals and immunizations are excluded from this plan, but are offered at a reduced rate to the student. The student health plan has been established so students do not have an out-of-pocket expense. To utilize the student health plan, services must be rendered at the Health CARE Center. Students who do not have health insurance should contact the Health CARE Center to discuss services available under the LSSU student health plan and/or plans that are available for purchase. An insurance plan is available for the uninsured student which may be purchased; this is separate from the on-campus student health plan. LSSU does not endorse this plan but simply makes it available to the student. Information regarding this plan is available at the Health CARE Center or by going on-line to: www.sas-mn.com. All students from countries other thatn the United States and Canada are required to carry health insur- ance as a condition of enrollment. These students must furnish proof they have purchased an equiva­ lent insurance plan that will cover their their health care while in the United States.

Upward Bound Upward Bound is a federally funded TRIO program which LSSU has successfully hosted since 1965. This is a free college-preparatory program for low income students and/or students whose parents do not have college degrees. The pro­ gram provides academic support, career exploration and advising, and cultural growth experiences designed to enhance educational success. Upward Bound works with these students year-round throughout high school to pre­ pare them to enter and succeed in post-secondary education. The programs serves about 70 students each year from area high schools within an hour's drive from LSSU's campus. Upward Bound hires at least 25 college students each year as tutors and office workers during the aca­ demic year and for residential jobs during the summer. The program is one of the few sites offering paid summer internships for students in human services, psychology, sociol­ ogy, teacher education and criminal justice. 68 • Lake Superior State University Child Development Center The campus Child Development Center provides full- or part-time care for children 3 years of age on the first day of enrollment, com­ pletely toilet-trained. The maxi­ mum age is kindergarden-enrolled during fall and spring semesters. We accept children through early elementary during the summer session, and if needed, during school breaks during fall and spring semesters. The Center is open fall, spring and summer semesters, and follows the university calendar. Children of LSSU students and em­ ployees are given priority in admis­ sion; however, children from the community are admitted as space allows. Children must completely toilet-trained. The center, licensed by the State of Michigan, provides developmentally appropriate ex­ periences for the child and empha­ sizes social, emotional, creative, physical and cognitive growth. Each morning and afternoon, under the guidance of experienced staff, students enrolled in the early child­ hood education program plan and supervise large and small group ac­ tivities including art, language arts, gross motor, fine motor, and out­ door play. A significant portion of each day is devoted to exploratory play where children move through the various learning areas electing to participate in any one of a wide variety of activities interacting with developmentally appropri­ ate learning materials. The Child Development Center is located at the southeast end of campus. Student-Faculty Relations Committee (Appeals) Function. The Student-Faculty Relations Committee provides a fo­ rum for resolving conflicts between students and faculty members which may arise with classroojn or �course-related activities, policies or procedures. The committee will not consider cases involving ADA compliance or any other matter it deems inappropriate. This commit­ tee is strictly an informal mediation body which will forward recom­ mendations for resolution to the parties involved (with a copy to the Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost). 3. Membership. The University president appoints the committee membership to turn-year terms. There are four faculty representa­ tives and four student representa­ tives. The chair is chosen by the committee membership. Procedures 1. 2. If a student (or group of students) wishes to raise an issue related to a course which he/she is taking or has taken (normally within one semester), the student should attempt to resolve the issue at the stu­ dent/faculty, department chair or appropriate dean level. If the matter cannot be resolved at the lowest possible levels, the student may appeal to the Student-Faculty Relations com­ mittee informing them of the problem. In exceptional cases, the student may approach the Student-Faculty Relations Committee directly. To bring an issue before the Student-Faculty Relations com­ mittee, the student must notify the Student-Faculty Relations Committee in writing. This document must clearly explain the situation and include the stu­ dent's name, current address, a message telephone number and times when the student is avail­ able to meet with the committee. Supporting documentation may be included as well. The writ­ ten appeal should be submitted directly to the committee chair. The Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost's Office will know the name of the committee chair. Once the committee members have had an opportunity to review tine student's concern, they will conduct an informal fact-finding process. As a part of the process, the student will be invited to meet with the com­ mittee for further clarification. This meeting will be 20 minutes in length with 10 minutes of question and answer by the committee. The other party will also be invited to meet with the committee following the same format. Both parties will then be asked to meet together with the committee in an effort to foster communication, clarification and resolution. The most desirable arrangement would be for this step to occur at one setting. The committee will strive to be as ex­ peditious as possible. There may be extenuating circumstances such as semester break or sum­ mer recess. 4. If there is no resolution after this joint meeting of the parties in­ volved, or if the outcome of this process is not acceptable to the student or the faculty member, he/she may appeal to the Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost of the University. 5. The committee will keep no permanent records. Counseling Services You are encouraged to take advan­ tage of our counseling services.

Marie, Michigan, and Sault College, in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, are just a 15-minute car ride apart. In spite of being located in different countries, our cities are closer to each other than they are to municipalities in their home state or province. So, community leaders encourage initiatives that strengthen the ties between us and take advantage of shared resourc­ es. The belief is we have more to offer by working together. Lake Superior State University and Sault College have enjoyed a good working relationship for many years. In 2001, some articu­ lations were revitalized, new ones were struck and it was decided to establish the International University College Division. The division allows full-time students in some program areas to be dualenrolled. In computer science/ studies, criminal justice, liberal studies/teacher education or occu­ pational/physical therapy assistant and athletic training or exercise science, agreements have been signed which encourage students to take advantage of the diverse faculty and resources available at both schools as they pursue their degrees and/or diplomas. Getting involved in the Interna­ tional Division is straightforward — consult with the academic department, fill in a Dual Enroll­ ment Form and submit it to the Registrar's Office. As a dual-en­ rolled student, you are permitted to take one course per semester at the other school. Through the extra advising available to you, you can fit these courses into your overall academic plan and semes­ ter timetables. You register for all courses through your home school registrar and your academic infor­ mation is transferred automatically at the conclusion of each semester.

If the failed class is no longer offered because of program changes and/or course deletions, the dean may approve a substitu­ tion or waiver recommended by the academic chair. The chair must provide reasons for the recommen­ dation on the substitution/waiver form which is sent to the dean's office. Lake Superior State University *75 sity is continuous. If enrollment is interrupted, or if you select a new major, you must satisfy program requirements in effect at the time you reenter or officially change to the new major. If program require­ ments are revised during your enrollment, you will be allowed to graduate under the new require­ ments providing you can meet such requirements in their entirety. The University reserves the right to change the requirements for graduation at any time as a means of keeping pace with educational developments affecting the vari­ ous curricula. As such changes are made, they may, at the discretion of the University, be applied to students already enrolled. In such cases, reasonable and prudent effort will be made to provide the benefit of the new educational program without imposing undue hardship. �General Education Mission Statement between the content of their courses and the challenges they face as free and responsible citizens.

The necessary forms are available at the student's major departmental office. The departmental Degree Audit for a student's major or minor specifies all required courses that have been or must be completed. The audit must be signed by the chair of the school or department offering the major or minor program. Course substitutions and waivers of departmental degree program requirements may be granted only by the chair and approved by the dean of the school offering the major or minor program. Course substitutions and waivers for education majors or minors must also have approval from the chair of the School of Education. Exceptions to specific general education requirements may be granted only by the Scholastic Standards Committee. Such exceptions are infrequently made. A petition for exceptions to general education requirements is initiated with the assistant to the provost for academic records. The assistant to the provost checks students' Degree Audits, after which a preliminary verification of the Degree Audit is sent to each student and respective school or department chair. Students are responsible for examining this verification and requesting clarification of anything that is not consistent with their records or understanding. From the Declaration of Candidacy for Degree forms submitted by students, a potential graduate list is created for each semester. Names for the commencement program and diploma will be the official, legal name as listed in the records of the University. The names of students who are listed iii the annual commencement program are also compiled from Declaration of Candidacy for Degree forms. Students may not be listed in the commencement program unless their Degree Candidacy Form is filed with the assistant to the provost six weeks prior to commencement. Students are expected to attend commencement exercises unless excused by the 78 • Lake Superior State University �assistant to the provost. Students completing degree requirements during the summer may participate in commencement the previous semester if their degree candidacy form is received six weeks prior to commencement. After grades are received at the end of each semester, Degree Audits will be updated for all students completing credit and who have a Degree Candidacy Form on file. When all requirements specified on the Degree Audit are fulfilled, the college dean and/or school chair and assistant to the provost give a final approval. Names of these graduates are then sent to the president for approval by the Board of Trustees. Subsequently, a diploma is provided to each student. Diploma charge: There is no charge for the first diploma from the University. A fee is charged for replacement diplomas. Students completing graduation requirements in the fall semester or summer, or who otherwise need documentation of completion before their diploma is available, may request a letter certifying that they have completed degree requirements. Additionally, official University transcripts will be sent to any employer, graduate university, or elsewhere, as requested by the graduate. Official transcripts will not be mailed to students. Graduation with honors: Honors graduates must earn at least 32 credits at Lake Superior State University. Students who earn 3.50 to 3.69 will graduate cum laude; 3.70 to 3.89, magna cum laude; 3.90 to 4.00, summa cum laude. Graduation diplomas with honors will be awarded to baccalaureate, associate, and certificate recipients. Honors medallions will be awarded to baccalaureate, associate and certificate recipients who graduate summa cum laude. Delinquent Accounts Students with delinquent accounts may be removed from class, have their diploma withheld, and/or have transcript requests denied. Honors Degree The University Honors Program offers highly motivated students the opportunity to develop their abilities and skills in exciting and innovative ways. The central goal of the University honors program is to create a community of scholars characterized by strong studentfaculty interaction around the world of ideas. The honors program fosters an approach to education that incorporates the qualities of active participation, intellectual curiosity and an interdisciplinary focus. Selection is based upon a number of factors, including: ACT scores, high school grade point average, application essay, personal interview and Lake State faculty nomination. Students invited to participate in the program enroll in courses designated for honors credit. The courses are distributed among the requirements for general education, the student's major, and the University honors program and may include small seminars or independent research projects. To graduate with an honors degree in a program of study, the honors student must have formal acceptance into the University honors program and have successfully completed 21 honors credit hours with an overall grade point average of 3.5* or better at graduation. The 21 honors credit hours are to be distributed among the University's requirements for general education, the student's major and the University honors program. Upon graduation from the honors program, the student will receive an honors degree in his/her program of study. The honors degree designation is indicated on the student's diploma and is distinct from graduating with honors (see Graduation with Honors).

The NRT degree will provide the student with a good general background in natural resources and the criminal justice degree will allow the student to be fully quali­ fied for many different law enforcement opportunities. Jobs for conservation law officers are limited, but the above configuration of degrees prepares a student to be highly competitive for openings that do occur. Students selecting this course of study should work closely with their advisor in order to complete both degrees in the five-year span. After completing the two-year NRT associate’s degree, students would complete the certification Criminal Justice Law Enforcement emphasis.

The fine arts degree is for students who have wide-ranging interests in fine arts, and who wish to explore and express their potential through following a personalized course of study. While students will invariably participate in a broad range of courses, they must select two main areas of focus (concentrations) from the following six: graphic design, music, native arts and culture, theater, visual arts and writing. Fine arts have been an important aspect of the human experience since first recorded history; from African cave paintings to Greek dramas, from Beethoven symphonies to the writings of Canadian playwrights. From the study of fine arts we can gain an understanding of various cultures through their own indigenous means of expression. Furthermore, we can deepen our understanding of our own culture by participation in various contemporary art forms (drama, music, painting, writing etc.). Most important, by exploring our own creative potential, we can develop a better understanding of ourselves.

It involves the study of changes that are tak­ ing and have taken place and the forces that cause these changes. For example, geologists interpret the movements of the continents over geologic time and the formation of mountains, volcanoes and other features of the Earth's surface. Ge­ ologists attempt to understand our physical environment from which we derive most of the natural resources essential to civilization. They investigate the processes that led to the formation of mineral de­ posits, and oil, gas and coal. They also study environmental change throughout the history of the Earth and how those changes and the development of life are related. Ge­ ologists attempt to predict natural disasters such as earthquakes, vol­ canic eruptions, and landslides, and they are very active in modeling groundwater flow to develop water reserves for municipalities and to protect groundwater from contami­ nation. Geologists study the natural world and apply their knowledge to achieve harmony between the human race and its environment.

Program Description: Career Descriptions: Mathematics: Operations Research Analyst — Helps organizations operate as efficiently as possible through the application of mathematical principles to organizational problems. Many who major in the field of mathematics combine those studies with education courses and obtain employment as teachers. People with mathematics degrees are found in a broad range of occupa­ tions where quantitative skills are needed; one of the largest employ­ ers of mathematics is the National Security Agency. Often a minor field of study (such as computer science) provides the supporting credential for entry-level jobs. Actuarial and Business Applications: The actuarial and business applica­ tions option combines mathemati­ cal knowledge with quantitative business applications. The result is a very marketable degree that provides many exciting career opportunities for graduates. A stu­ dent should be prepared to take the first actuarial examination in the spring of his/her junior year and the second examination the follow­ ing spring. A student choosing this emphasis will complete a minor in accounting-finance. Teaching degrees — A comple­ tion of a fifth-year internship and graduate course work qualifies you for elementary or secondary teacher certification in Michigan and Ontario, as well as reciprocity with several other states. Graduate school — An undergrad­ uate mathematics major with em­ phasis on abstraction, together with an analytical approach to problem solving, continues to provide strong preparation for graduate work in diverse fields — especially when combined with a minor in the related field. Statistician — Government agencies such as the Bureau of Labor employ statisticians to monitor the consumer price index, employment statistics and the like. Industries use statisticians in their efforts to forecast future needs, to implement quality control, and to design information-gathering strategies. Research Assistant — Mathematicians are sometimes needed as members of a multi­ discipline research team, responsible for creating a mathematical model of a realworld process or context, which then is used to help solve problems of interest to the team's efforts. Actuary — Assembles and analyzes statistics to calculate probabilities of sickness, death, injury, disability, retirement, property loss and unemployment for insurance companies. School Administrator or Counselor — A valid teaching certificate and teaching experience are prerequisites. Further course work and separate certification are also required. Educational Consultant or Trainer — Trains personnel in industry on new procedures and/or equipment needed. 176 • Lake Superior State University • 1-888-800-LSSU �Mathematics Mathematics Elementary Teaching Bachelor of Science Mathematics Bachelor of Science Departmental Requirements: (55 credits) MATH151 Calculus I 4 MATH 152 Calculus II 4 MATH251 Calculus III 4 MATH215 Fundamental Concepts of Mathematics 3 MATH216 Discrete Mathematics and Problem Solving 3 MATH261 Intro, to Numerical Methods 3 MATH305 Linear Algebra 3 MATH308 Probability and Mathematical Statistics 3 MATH309 Applied Statistics 4 MATH310 Differential Equations 3 MATH341 Abstract Algebra I 3 MATH351 Graph Theory 3 MATH401 Mathematical Modeling 3 MATH411 Advanced Calculus 3 MATH490 Research Topics in Mathematics 3 Choose any two (2) of the following (6 credits) CSCI103 Survey of Computer Science 3 CSCI105 Intro, to Computer Programming 3 CSCI121 Principles of Programming 3 Other Requirements (4 credits) PHYS231 Applied Physics for Engineers and Scientists I 4 General Education (29-33 credits) Free Electives or Academic Minor Total Credits: (32-36 credits) 124 Free elective and general education requirements must be completed so that at least 124 semester credits have been earned.

It is one of a number of liberal arts majors that prepare students for a broad range of career opportunities. With the skills they acquire in writing, speaking, analysis, critical thinking and leadership, political science majors are able to pursue a wide variety of career options (some of which require additional education). Political science majors choose one of four tracks or concentrations: general political science, pre-law, public administration or secondary teaching. Each concentration provides a combination of knowledge and skills especially appropriate for those with particular career goals. However, choosing one concentration over the others does not limit you to a particular career path — each of the tracks provides a solid grounding in political science and a broad liberal arts background. General education requirements and sufficient elective credits must be completed so that at least 124 semester credits have been earned.

First, an individual must complete an un­ dergraduate degree at a college or uni­ versity. Second, one must then go on to law school to obtain a juris doctorate degree. Finally, successful completion of the state bar exam is required for licensure. In being admitted into law school, the two most important factors that are evaluated by most law schools are undergraduate grades and Law School Admission Test (LSAT) scores — an entrance exam required of nearly all law schools in the United States and some in Canada. The American Bar Association and most law schools do not recommend any particular undergraduate major before going on to law school. Con­ sequently, a student should choose a major in which he/she has both interest and aptitude. Yet, there are important skills, values, and certain knowledge that can be acquired prior to law school which will assist a stu­ dent in being successful at law school. Such values and knowledge include: analytical and problem-solving skills, critical reading abilities, writing skills, oral communication and listening abil­ ities, research skills, task organization and management skills, ethical values, and, of course, knowledge of the law. In fact, a prelaw minor is available at LSSU which consists of courses that will assist a prelaw student in further developing these skills, values and knowledge. Since there is no required prelaw major, the American Bar Association and law schools strongly recommend that law school bound students contact the Prelaw Advisor at their university as early in the educational process as possible. At LSSU, our approach to advising prelaw students is very individualized. We want to help each student fulfill their goals and to be suc­ cessful at law school and beyond. The Prelaw Advisor at LSSU can provide individualized guidance with regard to selecting an undergraduate curriculum (both a major and a minor); recommending particular courses that will enhance necessary skills, values and knowledge; assisting in the law school admission process; and provid­ ing relevant career and professional trend information. Although there is no recommended or required prelaw curriculum, there are some excellent options that students may want to consider at LSSU. The following LSSU programs include key components with regard to legal knowledge as well as writing, analyti­ cal and research skills: • Business Administration-Legal Management (major) • Legal Studies (major) • Political Science—Prelaw Concen­ tration (major) • Prelaw (minor) Students should seek guidance from LSSU's Prelaw Advisor as early as possible to ensure they are individu­ ally counseled with regards to their respective interests, undergraduate curriculum choice, as well as personal and professional goals.

What that means depends upon the legal (or non-legal) work environment that one ultimately chooses, along with the area(s) of law in which one practices. The opportuni­ ties are endless given the various work environments and the numerous areas of law in which one can specialize. For instance, lawyers practice within private law practices; public interest groups; governmental agencies (feder­ al, state, tribal or local); courts; business and industry (e.g., insurance compa­ nies, financial institutions, corpora­ tions, hospitals, public relation firms, political campaigns, labor unions, and trade associations); academics (as a law professor, law librarian or administra­ tor); or in various non-legal careers such as the media, law enforcement, business, public relations, foreign service, or politics.

Career Descriptions: Most pharmacy schools require stu­ dents to take two years of pre-phar­ macy preparation prior to being admitted to their four-year profes­ sional program. Admission into the professional pharmacy programs is very competitive and is based, to a large extent, on grades in specific required courses. Many pharmacy colleges also require applicants to take the Pharmacy College Admis­ sion Test (P.C.A.T.). This exam is generally taken mid-way through your second pre-pharmacy year. Community Pharmacist — Practic­ es in local pharmacies, professional health centers, hospitals, nursing homes or neighborhood health centers. Pre-pharmacy requirements vary greatly between different colleges that offer professional programs in pharmacy. In general, most require a pre-pharmacy program that em­ phasizes math and science as well as strong communication skills. Recently, a majority of the nation's schools began to move toward awarding the doctor of pharmacy (Pharm.D.) as the only professional degree in pharmacy. Because many pharmacy curricula are currently being modified, pre-pharmacy requirements are also subject to change. The modifications in professional pharmacy curricula, combined with the variability in pre-pharmacy requirements, make it impera­ tive for a pre-pharmacy student to determine the requirements for admission at the schools he or she desires to attend. A pre-pharmacy curriculum at Lake Superior State University can then be designed to help you obtain your goals. It is your responsibility to contact the directors of admissions at the pharmacy schools to which you are planning to apply so you can re­ main informed of their most recent requirements for admission. Government Supervisory Posts — USPHS, USDA, DVA employ pharmacists for technical writ­ ing, science reporting, directing manufacturing firms or overseeing cultivation of medicinal plants. Research Pharmacist — Within the pharmaceutical industry, conduct research to develop prescription and non-prescription drugs and other health products. University Faculty — Teach students, conduct research, act as consultants for local, state, national and international agencies and organizations. Following is an example of typical minimum requirements for admission to many pharmacy programs: Biology (with lab) 1 year General Chemistry (with lab) 1 year Organic Chemistry (with lab) 1 year Physics (with lab) 1 year Economics 1 course Calculus at least 1 course English Composition 1 year Speech 1 course Social Science 1 year In addition, several schools have specific pre-phar­ macy requirements that are not on this list. 192 • Lake Superior State University • 1-888-800-LSSU �Psychology Program Description: A comprehensive four-year program with emphasis on research, experimentation, computer applications and a senior-research sequence.

(We will, however, exposit the deities Hinduism and Buddhism to put our study in context.) Can we prove that God exists? What might we owe God? How can we explain the existence of evil even though God is thought to be wholly good? What place does religion have in a pluralistic society? The history of Western Philosophy is in large part unified by the common pursuit of such questions. Not only are the questions themselves fascinating and perplexing, but also, they have been answered in inventive ways by many extraordinary thinkers. The Philosophy of Religion is, therefore, a continuing search that has a much to do with human ingenuity as it does about God. Prerequisite: ENGL111.

Lake Superior State University • 5 �A Look at LSSU Established in 1946 to address the needs of returning World War II veterans and to provide educa­ tional opportunities to the people of the Eastern Upper Peninsula, Lake Superior State University still embodies the essence of the early days. A personal education in a safe and friendly environment remains a hallmark of today's LSSU. Our beautiful 115-acre campus overlooks the Michigan and Ontario twin cities of Sault Ste. Marie, the St. Mary's River, and the world famous Soo Locks. The school is located at the beginning of Interstate 75 which ends in the Horida Keys. The campus served as Ft. Brady starting in 1894 after the fort was relocated from the banks of the St. Mary's. The fort was deactivated in 1944 and, thanks to the efforts of local volunteers and leadership at Michigan College of Mining & Technology in Houghton, opened in the fall of that year as the Sault Ste. Marie Residence Center of MCMT. The Sault Branch was rechristened Lake Superior State College of Michigan Technical University in 1966. Autonomy arrived for LSSC in 1970. University status was granted in 1987 to the state's smallest public institution of higher learning. Enrollment has grown from the original class of 272 to more than 3,400 students. There are 14 buildings on the Na­ tional Historic Register contributing to the University's sense of tradi­ tion. This unique architectural blend is a reminder of the "weapons to plowshares" history of the setting. Community: Sault Ste. Marie (pop. 18,000) is one of the oldest cities in North America, having begun as a fur trading center in the early 17th century. A Jesuit mission was estab­ lished here in 1641, and Father Mar­ quette founded the first permanent settlement 27 years later, within the boundaries of what was to become Michigan. The Sault celebrated its 300th birthday in 1968. Our sister city, Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, is a cultural, recreational, social and entertainment center. The combined population of the Twin Saults (98,000) allows for an international flavor abounding with the opportunities of a city, and the safety and comfort of a small town.

The intent of this plan is to document student learning at Lake Superior State University both in the major program and across the general education requirements. This continuous evaluation process works to assure high quality teach­ ing and effective student learn­ ing. The faculty at Lake Superior State University have collectively agreed upon the characteristics of the educated person the institution hopes to graduate and have identi­ fied outcomes that can be used to document these attributes. The following are areas that the faculty have deemed essential to a liberal education and have value for the students in their lives as responsible citizens: communication skills, mathematics, computer literacy, critical thinking, ethics, aesthetics, cultural diversity, and science and technology. Students who complete the general education courses at Lake Superior State University will be able to demonstrate attributes of the general education outcomes. Students attending Lake Superior State University can expect commit­ ment by the University to docu­ ment and enhance student learning. Through the assessment process, the University demonstrates its commit­ ment to improving student learning and ensures that when students graduate they have attained specific attributes and abilities. Lake Superior State University expects a commitment on the part of its students to actively participate in the learning process.

Fac­ ulty advisors, staff and administive personnel will also help you negoti­ ate your way through these policies — seek their advice whenever you have questions! The Academic Year Lake Superior State University op­ erates on a semester system. There are two regular 14-week semesters (fall and spring) which begin in August or September and end in April or May. The summer semes­ ter consists of classes offered in two six-week sessions, or one 12-week session. Starting and ending dates are listed in the Academic Calendar in the back of this catalog. Academic Credit One credit is equal to 14 hours of classroom instruction in lecture/ recitation courses. For example, a three-credit course might be sched­ uled 9-9:50 a.m. Monday, Wednes­ day and Friday for 14 weeks plus one week for exams. Laboratory classes, field work or other non-lec­ ture classes meet for more than one hour a week per credit. mine which major department you are in and the academic advisor as­ signed to you. Please get to know your advisor well and meet with him/her often to get help in class selection, degree progress and ca­ reer advice. You may change your major curriculum by processing a Curriculum Change Card through the Registrar's Office. The Regis­ trar's Office, Counseling Center and departmental offices have the card and instructions. Curriculum change cards must be filed with the Registrar's Office for each curricu­ lum change. If you are unsure of your major, you will be assigned to the Liberal Arts major and the advisor as­ signed to you will be a Learning Center member. If you are provisionally admitted to Lake Superior State University, an academic advisor from the Coun­ seling Center is assigned. You will keep this advisor until your admis­ sion status changes and you are admitted to your full-time major program. You should expect to spend two hours of study or class preparation for each hour spent in class. The average credit-hour load for full-time students is 16 credits. A minimum of 124 credits is required for all baccalaureate degrees; a minimum of 62 hours is required for an associate's degree.

Review the class offerings, read the instructions for scheduling, and meet with your advisor to select courses for the next semester. You must sign up for classes for the semester in which you will be doing the actual work. Please review all the scheduling information carefully as it has dates for scheduling according to class level, dates for tuition payments, and information regarding pre­ requisites, corequisites and other course requirements. It is your responsibility to ensure that the classes you take count toward your degree program. You may, however, be required to take remedial courses (course numbers beginning with "0", such as MA081), which will not count toward graduation. Test Scores: When you apply for admission, you will send your ACT score to Lake Superior State Univer­ sity. Your score determines the level of English, math and reading classes into which you will be placed. If you have been out of high school more than 26 months and have not taken the ACT, you can take place­ ment tests at the Testing/Counsel­ ing Center at Lake State to deter­ mine your placement in English, math and reading. Maximum credit load: You may carry up to 20 credits per semester. You may take more credits if you have a 3.00 GPA or higher and have written approval from the associate provost. Students on academic pro­ bation should not take more than 15 credits. 10 • Lake Superior State University Prerequisites: Many courses require that you complete English, math, reading or other preliminary classes before signing up to take these courses. If you have not met the prerequisite, you not be allowed to sign up for the class. If yor regis­ tered into a course, and later found not to have the necessary prereq­ uisite, the instructor may drop you from the class with an N grade. Some courses require that you earn a C or better in prerequisite courses before scheduling for the next course. Exceptions may be made only by the dean of your college or the instructor of the subsequent class. Repeats: You may repeat a class in which you earn a grade other than "VI" or "N" only twice without special permission and only under thefollow­ ing conditions: 1. Courses transferred from other institutions are included in this policy. 2. Both the original and repeat grades will show on the tran­ script, but hours earned toward graduation will only count once. 3. For the purpose of calculating the cumulative grade point average, only the grade of the last attempt will be used, if the last class was taken at LSSU. If you transfer in a class to repeat a class from LSSU, the LSSU grade will be removed from your grade point average. 4. To repeat a course more than twice, the student must attain the permission of the course instructor and the associate provost. Permission is granted only under exceptional circum­ stances. This policy began fall 2001 for all new students either as transfer or new freshman. When repeating a course, you should check the R (repeat) column of the Course Reg­ istration Form. Failed Classes: If you fail a class required for your degree program, you must repeat the class and re- �ceive a passing grade. If the failed class is no longer offered because of program changes and/or course deletions, the academic chair can substitute a similar class. Drop/add period: You may change your class schedule during the first six (6) days of each 14-week semes­ ter. Courses you drop during the drop/add period will not appear on your permanent record. You must get an instructor's permission to schedule a course that is full or to waive a prerequisite requirement. Your add or withdrawal from a course is not officially complete until the appropriate form is completed and submitted to the Student Service Center. It's a good idea to retain the official receipt upon completion of any add or drop. Late adds: If you wish to add a class after the six-day drop/add period, you must first get a Schedule Ad­ justment Form from the Registrar's Office, and then get the instructor's signature. Return your Schedule Adjustment Form to the Student Service Center. Non-attendance of the first class: Your instructor may drop you from a course if you do not attend or if you do not call the instructor before classes begin. The course instructor will fill out a drop form and notify you if you are dropped from the course. Dropping after the add/delete period: You may drop a course during the first 40 days of a full semester (the last day to drop a class listed online at: http://www. lssu.edu/scheduling). Your record will show an "N" grade and your GPA will not be affected. To drop a class after the eight-week drop requires extenuating circum­ stances, and you must obtain a Withdrawal Form. You must: 1. Complete the form (including listing a reason for the drop). 2. Get the instructor's signature and the instructor's recommen­ dation. 3. Take the completed form to the associate provost (of the class being dropped), for his review and decision. 4. If the associate provost ap­ proves the drop, the student must then take the form back to the Student Service Center for processing. A W grade will appear on your per­ manent record and will not affect your GPA. Class attendance: Regular class attendance and active participation in classes are important elements in the learning process. You are at the University primarily for the sake of intellectual growth and development. Attendance and participation provide appropriate opportunities for the evaluation of your progress. You are personally responsible for the satisfactory completion of the course work prescribed by your in­ structors. This means that you are expected to attend classes regularly, and that you are responsible for the work assigned in class, the material covered in class, and for participa­ tion in class activities (including discussion and listening) designed by the instructor as part of the learning experience. However, mere physical attendance should not be a criterion for evaluation of your performance. Participation in an official Univer­ sity function is an excused absence when approved by the provost. You will not be penalized for such participation. You are responsible for work missed and must confer with your instructor on this matter. Complete withdrawal: If you are a full-time student and drop all of your classes during the first eight weeks of the semester, you may be eligible for tuition refund. To receive any refund, fill out a With­ drawal Form at the Student Service Center. This office will authorize your refund from the Business Of­ fice. (Please check online for the refund policy.) Lake Superior State University *11 Before leaving, be sure you have cleared any holds on your records so you can return at a later date or have transcripts of your academic records sent out. Grading System Grade Point Average (GPA): To calculate your GPA for a semester, divide the total points earned by the total credits carried. Credits carried include those earned or failed but not those classes taken for credit/no credit. Cumulative GPA is calculated by dividing total points earned by the number of credits carried in all semesters. If you repeat a course, count only the credits carried and the points of the last grade earned. Just the grade of your last attempt is calculated in your GPA. A cumulative GPA of 2.00 for all credits is required for graduation. Further, a 2.00 cumulative grade point average for all credits in ma­ jor and minor(s) is required. Some programs require a higher GPA in the major curriculum. Incomplete grades (I): An incom­ plete "I" grade can be issued in the case of extenuating circumstances beyond the control of the student that prevent completion of course requirements. Examples of extenu­ ating circumstances may include health issues, death of a parent/ spouse/child, or military service. Appropriate documentation is re­ quired. An "I" grade can be issued in a course, that by design, cannot be completed in one semester. You must make up the work by the date specified by the instructor. If a date is not given, the student will have a maximum of two semesters (ex­ cluding summer semesters) to com­ plete the requirements for remov­ ing the "I" grades. Two semesters after the issuance of the "I" grade, if the professor has not completed a Grade Change Form or requested an extension, the Registrar's Office will change the "I" grade to an "F" grade. �Academic Standing Table Full- and Part-Time Students Academic Probation and Dismissal Policy effective Summer 2005 Cumulative Quality (QHRS) Credits Carried at LSSU Minimum for Good Standing* On Probation Dismissal 1 -18.99 2.00 less than 2.00 two consecutive semesters on probation 19 - or more 2.00 less than 2.00 two consecutive semesters on probation or 1.60 or less gpa QHRS are the hours used in figuring the grade point aver­ age.

The policy and limitations outlined above do not apply to these courses. Cheating and Plagiarism: The assumption of the academic contract is that the student does his or her own work: any breach of the contract is considered cheating. The faculty member who detects a student cheating may take appro­ priate action, such as assigning a failing grade for the entire course. A student who cheats is subject to dismissal from the University. If, in the opinion of the faculty member involved, such action is warranted, he or she will notify the chairman of the Scholastic Standards Com­ mittee and the student in writing. The Scholastic Standards Commit­ tee will then conduct a hearing in such a manner that the student is given due process. If the committee decides that dismissal is warranted, the student shall have five school days to appeal that decision to the provost of the University. Credit by Examination There are three examination pro­ cesses you can take to earn credit for individual courses or general education requirements. They include: 1. Advanced placement 2. CLEP examinations — Inquire at the Student Services Center, Lake Superior State University *13 Counseling Center or with the assistant to the provost for aca­ demic records for information on the CLEP examinations. 3.

The waiver shall not be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the student. The Univer­ sity may not require that a student waive any right under the Act. This requirement does not preclude the University from requesting such a waiver. An applicant for admission or a student in attendance may waive the right to inspect and review confidential letters and statements of recommendation. The waiver applies to letters or statements only if it is in writing and designated by the student and if: 1. the applicant or student is notified of the names of those providing letters or statements. 2. the documents are used only for the purpose intended. 3. the waiver is not required as a condition of admission or receipt of any sendee or benefit from the University.

In carrying out this policy, the University complies with all federal and state laws and regulations pro­ hibiting discrimination including: Executive Order 11246, the ElliottLarsen Civil Rights Act of 1976, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, The Equal Pay Act of 1963, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended by the Equal Em­ ployment Opportunity Act of 1972, and the Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978, Title IX of the Educa­ tion Amendments of 1972, Titles VII and VIII of the Public Health Ser­ vice Act, Age Discrimination in Em­ ployment Act of 1967, Sections 503 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Veteran's Assistance Act of 1972, and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. Sexual Harassment The University is committed to a policy of nondiscrimination on the basis of gender. Discrimination because of gender includes sexual harassment, which means unwel­ come sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct or communication of a sexual nature when: i. Submission to such conduct or communication is made a term or condition either explicitly or implicitly to obtain employ­ ment, public accommodations or public services, education, or housing; instances of discrimination and discriminatory harassment. Once the University has been informed of such behavior, it will take timely and appropri­ ate steps to investigate the problem. At any step of the grievance process, time sched­ ules as outlined in the process may be extended by mutual agreement in writing. ii. Submission to or rejection of such conduct or communica­ tion by an individual is used as a factor in decisions affecting such individual's employment, public accommodations or public services, education, or housing; or iii. Such conduct or communica­ tion has the purpose or effect of substantially interfering with an individual's employment, public accommodations or public services, education, or housing environment. The University is committed to the protection of the rights of all indi­ viduals and to the elimination of barriers that would prevent indi­ viduals from realizing their high­ est potential of human excellence. Sexual harassment is a particularly noxious form of discrimination that interferes with these goals and com­ mitments, and is difficult to combat due to the intimidation and destruc­ tion of self esteem of its victims. 2. With the Grievance Officer, in­ dividuals may discuss concerns they may have regarding pos­ sible discrimination or harass­ ment to learn what options are available. 3. Nonretaliation: The University not only prohibits discrimina­ tion, including harassment, but also strictly prohibits any retaliation against any indi­ vidual, who, in good faith, has registered a complaint under this procedure. Any supervi­ sor, agent, or employee of the University who, after investi­ gation, has been determined to have retaliated against any individual for using the com­ plaint procedure in this policy, will be subject to appropriate discipline up to and includ­ ing immediate discharge. If an individual believes he or she has been retaliated against for exercising his or her rights under this policy, the individ­ ual should use this complaint procedure. 4. All matters discussed in this process will be kept as confi­ dential as possible. 5. If an individual is dissatisfied with the University's investiga­ tion process or resolution, he or she may file complaints of illegal discrimination on the basis of gender (Title IX and Title VI) or disability (Section 504 and Title II of the ADA) with the Office for Civil Rights, U.S. Department of Education, Chicago, IL 60605. A Title IX, Title VI, Section 504, or Title II ADA complaint must be filed Grievance Officer The Equal Employment Opportu­ nity Officer/Affirmative Action Of­ ficer (EEO Officer) is the designated grievance officer for discrimination complaints. If any person believes that he or she has been subjected to discrimination, including harass­ ment by unlawful and unacceptable expressions, acts, attitudes and/or behaviors based on race, color, national origin or ancestry, gender, age, disability, religion, height, weight, sexual preference, marital status, or veteran status, he or she should contact Ms. Beverly White, EEO Officer, Lake Superior State University Administration Build­ ing, Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan 49783 (906-635-2697) within sixty (60) working days of the action of which the person complains. Process 1. The University encourages all individuals to promptly report 20 • Lake Superior State University �in writing with the Office for Civil Rights no later than 180 days after the occurrence of the possible discrimination. 6. Individuals have the right under the law to seek remedies from the Michigan Depart­ ment of Civil Rights, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Office for Civil Rights, U.S. Department of Education or by court action at the same time a grievance is filed under the University's procedure, during or after the use of the grievance process, or without using the grievance process at all. STEP 1: Informal Complaint Any individual (complainant) with a discrimination or harassment complaint, may contact the Griev­ ance Officer in person. The Grievance Officer will speak with the complainant and try to resolve the matter on an informal basis. At Step 1, all information will be kept confidential to the extent possible. STEP 2: Formal Complaint If the problem cannot be resolved at Step 1 within five (5) working days from the date of first contact with the Grievance Officer, the complainant may submit a written complaint on a form provided by the Grievance Officer. The Griev­ ance Officer will help the com­ plainant complete the form if the complainant requests. Within five (5) working days of the receipt of the written complaint, the Grievance Officer will send a Notice of Complaint, a copy of the complaint form, a response form and a copy of this procedure to the respondent. The respondent will submit the completed response form within five (5) working days from the date the complaint is received by the respondent. The Grievance Officer will conduct an investigation. The investigation should be completed within twenty (20) working days after receipt of the response. If the complaint is against the University as the Employer, the Grievance Officer will have thirty (30) days from the receipt of the written complaint to investigate the matter. Within ten (10) working days of completion of the investigation, the Grievance Officer will issue to the complainant and to the respondent a written Determination stating whether the allegations of the com­ plaint are true and any remedial action recommended. At Step 2, information will be kept confidential to the extent possible. STEP 3: Hearing If either the complainant or the respondent is dissatisfied with the Grievance Officer's determination, he or she may request that the mat­ ter be referred to a Hearing Panel for a hearing by submitting the form obtained from the Grievance Officer.

The President will appoint a per­ manent Hearing Panel composed of three members including, if possible, at least one female and one minority member. The vice president for business and financial operations will be the chairperson and will conduct the hearing. The Grievance Officer will send a Notice of Hearing and a copy of the Request for Hearing to the complainant, respondent (if any), and Hearing Panel, scheduling the hearing within fifteen (15) working days, unless the Panel Chairperson provides otherwise and so notifies those involved. At the hearing, the complainant and respondent will be allowed to give their own testimony, present the testimony of witnesses, docu­ mentary evidence or other evidence relevant to the proceedings and cross-examine the other party's witnesses. The complainant and Lake Superior State University *21 respondent may have an attor­ ney or other advisor present. The Grievance Officer will present the findings of the investigation con­ ducted at Step 2 and may present witnesses, if appropriate. To ensure the privacy of those involved, wit­ nesses (other than the complainant and respondent) will be allowed in the hearing room only during their testimony. At the Chairperson's discretion, the hearing may be recorded. Within fifteen (15) working days after completion of the hearing, the Chairperson will issue the Deci­ sion and recommended order of the Hearing Panel. The Decision will be mailed to the complainant and respondent with a copy to the Grievance Officer. The Chairperson will implement any action recom­ mended by the Panel. STEP 4: Appeal The decision of the Hearing Panel will be final and binding. If grievants wish to pursue the matter fur­ ther, they may file with the outside agencies listed in Policy section, No. 5. and 6. Section 5.02 of the by-laws of the Board of Trustees, approved July 24,1989, will not be invoked for grievances submitted for settlement under this procedure. �Admissions Freshmen You may apply to Lake Superior State University any time during your filial year of high school. Ap­ plications are processed continu­ ously and you will be notified of a decision within two weeks. To complete your admission file you must submit a final high school transcript and ACT scores (if you graduated from high school within 26 months of entering LSSU). Final high school transcript must verify graduation from an accredited school or passing on the GED. To be considered official, all tran­ scripts must be mailed from your high school guidance office directly to Lake Superior State University. LSSU assigns each student an individual student identification number. Your student number will be provided to you after your application is complete. While we do not use social security numbers as your student identification, we do use it to match your application record with your other permanent records. Financial aid applications will not be processed without your social security number. Social se­ curity numbers should be included on your application for admission. Canadian applicants should not use their social insurance number. An alternative number will be assigned to Canadian and other foreign students. The primary factors in determin­ ing admission are ACT* scores and grade point average. LSSU uses an overall grade point average (GPA). The average overall GPA for the 2003 freshman class was 3.00 on a scale of a 4.0. The average ACT composite score was a 21. Students whose ACT or GPA levels approach but do not meet LSSU standards may be admitted via the University Studies program. University Studies is dedicated to providing an educational opportu­ nity to students who meet certain profiles. Students who are admitted via University Studies receive addi­ tional advising and support services to ensure their success at LSSU.

Lake Superior State University has articulation agreements with area high schools to enhance applied and career educational opportuni­ ties at the post-secondary level. In tandem with its regional secondary education partners, LSSU has cre­ ated pathways to applied education for specified curricula in busi­ ness and technology. University course credits count toward degree requirements for high school work if certain competencies are met. Check with your high school guid­ ance counselor or an LSSU admis­ sions advisor to verify whether a specific course may apply.

You may qualify for a combina­ tion of University, state and federal programs—a financial aid pack­ age— which may include a combi­ nation of scholarship, grant, loan, and/or work assistance. Full-time undergraduates take priority in aid awards. Carefully consider the full cost of your education, parental support, and savings — including summer employment — to determine your need for financial aid. If you possess excellent high school or community college grades, you are encouraged to apply for scholarships regard­ less of need. Those with need are considered for grants, loans and/or employment based on need estab­ lished from the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You can obtain information on all financial aid programs from the Financial Aid staff. Staff are avail­ able to advise you and your parents about the costs of attending the University, availability of financial aid and application procedures. Applying: You can apply for finan­ cial aid by obtaining a FAFSA form from your high school counselor or contacting the Financial Aid Office, Lake Superior State University, 650 W. Easterday Ave., Sault Ste. Marie, MI 49783. You may also file your FAFSA on-line at www.fafsa.ed.gov.

All freshmen who are Michigan residents are encouraged to com­ plete the Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) test to determine eligibility for additional state aid. You and your parents or guardian must complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to apply for federal aid. The form must be received by the processor before March 1 to assure priority aid consideration. Satisfactory Academic Progress Requirements for the Retention of Financial Aid Ifyou are receiving any form offinan­ cial aid, you must meet these satisfac­ tory academic progress requirements to retain your aid each semester. Financial aid regulations require that a student must make satisfac­ tory progress to remain eligible for financial aid. Financial aid pro­ grams affected by this policy are Federal Pell Grant, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Work-Study, Federal Supplemental Educational Oppor­ tunity Grant, Federal Direct Loans, Federal PLUS Loans, State of Michi­ gan and Institutional Scholarships, Grants, Loan and Work Programs. �The following policy is the minimum requirement for all types of financial aid; however, there are some types of aid with more stringent requirements (see scholarship requirements): Qualitative Standards Every student must maintain, at the end of each semester, a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least: Cumulative GPA Credits Attempted* 1.70 1.86 1.93 1.97 0-25 credits 26-55 credits 56-87 credits 88 or more credits *Semester Hours (includes transfer credit hours) Probationary Semester: First-year freshmen and new transfer students not meeting the GPA requirement after their first semester at LSSU will be placed on financial aid probation for one semester. The cumulative GPA after the probationary semester must satisfy the minimum GPA or the student will have his/her finan­ cial aid suspended. For example, a freshman "attempting" 16 credits each semester would need to have a cumulative GPA of at least 1.86 to receive aid the following year. Current Students: Students that have been enrolled for more than one semester will not have a proba­ tionary semester and must meet the schedule above for each semester. Transfer Students: The require­ ments for transfer students are based on the number of full-time equivalent credits transferred to LSSU. For example, a student with 68 transfer credits must earn a GPA of 1.93 or higher. Quantitative Standards Each student's progress in credits earned will be reviewed every se­ mester. The following credits must be earned in relation to the number of credits enrolled at the end of the add period: Undergraduate Students Fall/Spring/Summer Semester Enrolled Credits to be Credits Earned 12+ 11 10 9 8 7 6 5-1 9 8 7 6 6 5 4 100% Graduate Students Fall/Spring Semester Enrolled Credits to be Credits Earned 10+ 9 8 7 6 5 7 6 6 5 4 4 4-1 100% If a student does not satisfactorily meet the quantitative standard, he/ she will be placed on financial aid probation for the next semester. If a student fails to meet the standard for the second consecutive semester enrolled, his/her financial aid will be suspended. Part-time students enrolled for less than six credits must earn all credits attempted. Once financial aid is suspended, both the GPA and credit hour completion criteria must be met in subsequent semesters of six credits or more before reinstatement of aid is possible. If completion of "I" grades or other record changes warrant a reinstate­ ment, a written notice from the Registrar's Office must be presented to the Financial Aid Office by the end of the semester following can­ cellation of aid by the student. Financial Aid Suspension: No aid will be granted once a student's eligi­ bility is suspended, including but not limited to the Federal Direct Stafford Loan, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Lake Superior State University • 33 �150% Completion Rule To qualify for federal financial aid, students must complete a program within 150% of the timeframe required for the pro­ gram. For example, a student working on an associate (twoyear) degree must complete the degree within six semesters of full-time study. Students may not "attempt" more than 150% of the credits required for the degree. The average baccaulaureate pro­ gram requires 124 credits, so the maximum number of attempted credits is 186. Appeals to this general rule must include an advisor's signed copy of your degree au­ dit with your anticipated gradu­ ation date. Direct PLUS Loan, Federal WorkStudy, Federal Supplemental Edu­ cational Opportunity Grant, Federal Pell Grant, Michigan Competitive Scholarship, Michigan Adult PartTime Grant, Michigan Educational Opportunity Grant, Michigan Work Study and Institutional Scholarships and Grants. Financial Aid Reinstatement: To remove financial aid suspen­ sion status for qualitative reasons, a student must have attained the minimum cumulative grade point average and credit-earned require­ ments (minimum six credit hours) at Lake Superior State University, while not receiving financial aid. In additiona, students who suc­ cessfully complete 26 credits at a community college after being suspended at LSSU will be allowed one probationary semester upon readmission. Successful students must advise the Financial Aid Office in writing that they have met the requirements for reinstatement of the qualitative standard. Right to Appeal: A student whose aid is suspended may request reinstatement through the Financial Aid Committee. To obtain reinstate­ ment, the student must effectively demonstrate that their poor perfor­ mance was due to some unusual circumstance. Such requests should be in writing and be received im­ mediately following the semester of the suspension. Scholarships are awarded on aca­ demic excellence and may not be reinstated by appeal.

The center, licensed by the State of Michigan, provides developmentally appropriate experiences for the child and emphasizes social, emo­ tional, creative, physical and cogni­ tive growth. Each morning and afternoon, under the guidance of experienced staff, students enrolled in the early childhood education program plan and supervise large and small group activities includ­ ing art, language arts, gross motor, fine motor, and outdoor play. A significant portion of each day is devoted to exploratory play where children move through the various learning areas electing to partici­ pate in any one of a wide variety of activities interacting with developmentally appropriate learning materials. The Child Development Center is located at the southeast end of campus. If you are seeking part- or full-time work during the academic year or summer, we also maintain a listing of positions available for students. Upward Bound Upward Bound is a federally funded TRIO program which LSSU has successfully hosted since 1965. This is a free college-preparatory program for low income students and/or students whose parents do not have college degrees. The pro­ gram provides academic support, career exploration and advising, and cultural growth experiences designed to enhance educational success. Upward Bound works with these students year-round throughout high school to pre­ pare them to enter and succeed in 60 • Lake Superior State University Student-Faculty Relations Committee (Appeals) Function. The Student-Faculty Relations Committee provides a fo­ rum for resolving conflicts between students and faculty members which may arise with classroom or course-related activities, policies or procedures. The committee will not consider cases involving ADA compliance or any other matter it deems inappropriate. This commit­ tee is strictly an informal mediation body which will forward recom­ mendations for resolution to the parties involved (with a copy to the executive vice president and provost). Membership. The University president appoints the committee membership to two-year terms. There are four faculty representa­ tives (at least one from each col­ lege) and four student representa­ tives. The chair is chosen by the committee membership. Procedures 1. If a student (or group of students) wishes to raise an issue related to a course which he/she is taking or has taken (normally within one semester), the student should attempt to resolve the issue at the stu­ dent/ faculty, department head or appropriate college dean level. If the matter cannot be resolved at the lowest pos­ sible levels, the student may appeal to the Student-Faculty Relations committee informing them of the problem. In excep­ tional cases, the student may approach the Student-Faculty Relations Committee directly. 2. To bring an issue before the Student-Faculty Relations com­ mittee, the student must notify the Student-Faculty Relations Committee in writing. This document must clearly explain the situation and include the stu­ dent's name, current address, a �message telephone number and times when the student is avail­ able to meet with the committee. Supporting documentation may be included as well. The writ­ ten appeal should be submitted directly to the committee chair. The Executive Vice President and Provost's Office will know the name of tire committee chair. 3. Once tire committee members have had an opportunity to review the student's concern, they will conduct air informal fact-finding process. As a part of the process, the student will be invited to meet with the com­ mittee for further clarification. This meeting will be 20 minutes in length with 10 minutes of question and answer by tire committee. The other party will also be invited to meet with the committee following the same fomrat. Both parties will then be asked to meet together with tire committee in an effort to foster communication, clarification and resolution. The most desirable arrangement would be for this step to occur at one setting. The Lake Superior State University • 61 committee will strive to be as expeditious as possible. There may be extenuating circum­ stances such as semester break or summer recess. 4. If there is no resolution after this joint meeting of tire parties in­ volved, or if the outcome of this process is not acceptable to the student or tire faculty member, he/she may appeal to the execu­ tive vice president and provost of tire University. 5. The committee will keep no permanent records. �Computer Services LSSU Information Technology offers a variety of services and programs for students. Classroom laboratories provide for instruction that involves computers and/or software. During non-class hours, general access labs provide copies of the software used in classes, open Internet access to students, as well as word processing software. Help for students utilizing software in the classroom or labs is available in the Learning Center. PCs enhance the research ability of the KJS Library with access to the Internet and many databases. The University maintains a student-to-computer ratio of 10-1 whenever possible. Upon enrollment, a student will receive an e-mail account which can be used to access the university 62 • Lake Superior State University messaging system as well as com­ municating with friends and family. This account is free to any enrolled student. Instructions and help for using the e-mail account are avail­ able at the Information Technology HelpDesk in the Administration Building. Internet access is also available in student residences and many locations across campus. The Information Technology HelpDesk is located in the Administra­ tion Building, room 107. The HelpDesk assists students with general computing problems related to any of the above services. Current information regarding Information Technology and Com­ puter Sendees can also be obtained from our Web Site at: http://it.lssu. edu. �International Studies Go Global!

Study Abroad Opportunities Foreign Student Services The Registrar's Office maintains up-to-date information regarding regulations and procedures for foreign students wishing to pursue a full course of study in institutions such as colleges and universities in LSSU students may participate in study abroad programs to meet their individual study objectives. The Provost's Office will provide upon request information about current LSSU-sponsored study abroad programs. A study abroad packet is available to facilitate the transfer of credit from another institution, either U.S. or foreign, provide information about health and travel insurance, and provide guidance about the use of institu­ tional financial aid in study abroad programs. Federal financial aid may be applied to the cost of the study abroad programs officially arranged through LSSU.

Marie, Michigan, and Sault College, in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, are just a 15-minute car ride apart. In spite of being located in different countries, our cities are closer to each other than they are to municipalities in their home state or province. So, community leaders encourage initiatives that strengthen the ties between us and take advantage of shared resourc­ es. The belief is we have more to offer by working together. Lake Superior State University and Sault College have enjoyed a good working relationship for many years. In 2001, some articu­ lations were revitalized, new ones were struck and it was decided to establish the International University College Division. The division allows full-time students in some program areas to be dualenrolled. In computer science/ studies, criminal justice or liberal studies/teacher education, agree­ ments have been signed which encourage students to take ad­ vantage of the diverse faculty and resources available at both schools as they pursue their degrees and/ or diplomas. Getting involved in the Interna­ tional Division is straightforward — consult with the academic department, fill in a Dual Enroll­ ment Form and submit it to the Registrar's Office. As a dual-en­ rolled student, you are permitted to take one course per semester at the other school. Through the extra advising available to you, you can fit these courses into your overall academic plan and semes­ ter timetables. You register for all courses through your home school registrar and your academic infor- mation is transferred automatically at the conclusion of each semester. As long as you meet the required academic standards, you will con­ tinue to enjoy these advantages of attending both schools: • the combination of applied, "hands-on" training and theo­ retical understanding • more course choices • access to many of the stu­ dent services and academic resources (e.g. wider selec­ tion of equipment, libraries, student centers, peer tutoring, etc.) available at both institu­ tions • accessible professors through small classes, labs and office hours • interaction with fellow stu­ dents from another country — a good basis for a network of contacts that can assist you in your life's work ahead • greater employment options and advancement opportunities Dual-enrolled students pursuing the bachelor of science in comput­ er science or computer network­ ing gain these particular benefits: • professors with a wide variety of computer-based qualifica­ tions and areas of expertise • exposure to, and opportunity to work with, more types of hardware and software than would be available at either institution on its own • plenty of equipment available for hands-on experience • more than 70% of the major courses with a lab component 64 • Lake Superior State University • opportunity to earn worldrecognized CISCO CCNA and Microsoft MCSE certifications • Innovative, relevant programs which adjust quickly to both changing technology and em­ ployers' needs For more specific information re­ garding computer-based degrees and participation in the Interna­ tional University College Division, please refer to page 108 of this catalog. Dual-enrolled students in the criminal justice degree programs benefit from the continuing educa­ tion opportunities developed by both schools for people currently working in public safety. LSSU does this through its academy, providing MCOLES (Michigan Commission on Law Enforce­ ment Standards) and Michigan Firefighter Training Council certification. Sault College offers advanced training and certifica­ tion for Ontario Provincial Police and municipal police officers at its Law Enforcement Training Centre. Refer to www.saultc.on.ca for more information about Sault Col­ lege's participation in the Interna­ tional University College Division. You can also visit LSSU's website at www.lssu.edu/advantage. �Degree Requirements Lake Superior State University offers bachelor (also called bacca­ laureate) degrees, associate degrees and certificates, as well as a master of arts degree in curriculum and instruction.

All but six credits required for the minor must be LSSU credits. Failed Classes If you fail a class required for your degree program, you must repeat the class and receive a passing grade. If the failed class is no longer offered because of program changes and/or course deletions, the Associate Provost can substitute another similar class. Exceptions to Graduation Requirements Exceptions to specific general education requirements may be granted only by the Scholastic Standards Committee. Such ex­ ceptions are infrequently made. A petition for exceptions to general education requirements is initiated with the assistant to the provost for academic records. Course substitutions and waivers of departmental degree program requirements may be granted only by the chair of the school offering the program (major or minor). Normally, you will graduate under the program degree require­ ments in effect and published in the Catalog at the time you are admitted into the given degree program, provided enrollment at the University is continuous. If enrollment is interrupted, or if you select a new major, you must satisfy program requirements in effect at the time you reenter or of­ ficially change to the new major. If program requirements are revised during your enrollment, you will be allowed to graduate under the new requirements pro-viding you can meet such requirements in their entirety. The University reserves the right to change the requirements for graduation at any time as a means of keeping pace with educational developments affecting the vari­ ous curricula. As such changes are made, they may, at the discre­ tion of the University, be applied to students already enrolled. In such cases, reasonable and pru­ dent effort will be made to provide the benefit of the new educational program without imposing undue hardship. 68 • Lake Superior State University �Graduation Procedures Degree candidacy procedure: Two semesters before students plan to complete degree requirements and graduate, they must submit an appropriate departmental degree audit for each major and minor, and a Declaration of Candidacy for Degree to the assistant to the provost for Academic Records. The necessary forms are available at the student's major departmental office. The departmental Degree Audit for a student's major or minor speci­ fies all required courses that have been or must be completed. The audit must be signed by the chair of the school offering the major or minor program. Course substitu­ tions and waivers of departmental degree program requirements may be granted only by the chair of the school offering the major or minor program. Exceptions to specific general education requirements may be granted only by the Scho­ lastic Standards Committee. Such exceptions are infrequently made. A petition for exceptions to general education requirements is initiated with the assistant to the provost for academic records. The assistant to the provost checks students' Degree Audits, after which a preliminary verification of the Degree Audit is sent to each student and respective school chair. Students are responsible for examin­ ing this verification and requesting clarification of anything that is not consistent with their records or un­ derstanding. From the Declaration of Candi­ dacy for Degree forms submitted by students, a potential graduate list is created for each semester. Names for the commencement program and diploma will be the official, legal name as listed in the records of the University. The names of students who are listed in the annual com­ mencement program are also com­ piled from Declaration of Candidacy for Degree forms. Students may not be listed in the commencement program unless their Degree Candi­ dacy Form is filed with the assistant to the provost six weeks prior to com­ mencement. Students are expected to attend commencement exercises unless excused by the assistant to the provost. Students completing degree requirements during the summer may participate in commencement the previous semester if their degree candidacy form is received six weeks prior to commencement. After grades are received at the end of each semester, Degree Audits will be updated for all students complet­ ing credit and who have a Degree Candidacy Form on file. When all requirements specified on the Degree Audit are fulfilled, the col­ lege dean and/or school chair and assistant to the provost give a final approval. Names of these gradu­ ates are then sent to the president for approval by the Board of Trustees. Subsequently, a diploma is provided to each student. Diploma charge: There is no charge for the first diploma from the Uni­ versity. A fee is charged for replace­ ment diplomas. Students completing graduation requirements in the fall semes­ ter or summer, or who otherwise need documentation of completion before their diploma is available, may request a letter certifying that they have completed degree re­ quirements. Additionally, official University transcripts will be sent to any employer, graduate university, or elsewhere, as requested by the graduate. Official transcripts will not be mailed to students. Graduation with honors: Honors graduates must earn at least 32 cred­ its at Lake Superior State University. Students who earn 3.50 to 3.69 will graduate cum laude; 3.70 to 3.89, Lake Superior State University • 69 �magna cum laude; 3.90 to 4.00, summa cum laude. Graduation diplomas with honors will be awarded to baccalaureate and associate's and certificate re­ cipients. Honors medallions will be awarded only to baccalaureate and associate's degree recipients who graduate summa cum laude. Delinquent Accounts Students with delinquent accounts may be removed from class, have their diploma withheld, and/or have transcript requests denied. Honors Degree The University Honors Program offers highly motivated students the opportunity to develop their abilities and skills in exciting and innovative ways. The central goal of the University honors pro­ gram is to create a community of scholars characterized by strong student-faculty interaction around the world of ideas. The honors program fosters an approach to education that incorporates the qualities of active participation, intellectual curiosity and an inter­ disciplinary focus. Selection is based upon a number of factors, including: ACT scores, high school grade point aver­ age, application essay, personal interview and Lake State faculty nomination. Students invited to participate in the program enroll in courses designated for honors credit. The courses are distrib­ uted among the requirements for general education, the student's major, and the University honors program and may include small seminars or independent research projects. To graduate with an honors degree in a program of study, the honors student must have formal accep­ tance into the University honors program and have successfully completed 21 honors credit hours with an overall grade point aver­ age of 3.3 or better at graduation. The 21 honors credit hours are to be distributed among the Univer­ sity's requirements for general education, the student's major and the University honors program. Upon graduation from the honors program, the student will receive an honors degree in his/her pro­ gram of study. The honors degree designation is indicated on the student's diploma and is distinct from graduating with honors (see Graduation with Honors). 70 • Lake Superior State University �School of Biological Sciences Dr. Thomas A.

Managers guide and direct the organization. Managers set goals and determine methods to achieve those goals. Since managers must achieve the organization's goals through the efforts of other indi­ viduals, the practice of manage­ ment is concerned with human be­ havior. Managers are involved with designing effective organization structures, controlling operations, making effective decisions, and communicating, motivating and leading personnel. Additionally, an effective manager must design programs to develop people's abili­ ties and talents, understand the role and impact of technology on the organization and be aware of and respond to social challenges both domestically and internationally. A career in management is both chal­ lenging and rewarding. The management major is de­ signed to provide students with a broad background in business by presenting courses covering the functional areas of business.
