34 Academic Policies and Procedures Academic Progress and Standing Your progress in each class is regularly evaluated by the instructor of the course. Instructors schedule regular office hours to allow you to confer regarding academic achievements or particular problems with course work. At the end of each semester a final grade is recorded on your permanent record for each course taken. Students are officially classified according to the number of credit hours completed as follows:

Freshman 0-29 credit hours Sophomore 30-59 credit hours Junior 60-89 credit hours Senior 90 or more credit hours

Withdrawal and Leave of Absence If you decide to withdraw from the university, you must contact your academic dean. The dean’s office will process your withdrawal and assist you if you intend to return to the university at a future date. If you are in good standing with a cumulative QPA of 2.00 or better, you may apply to your academic dean for a leave of absence. This would permit you to return to Shippensburg University without having to apply for readmission. Leaves may be granted for up to one year. When a leave of absence is granted, you must contact your academic dean before you return in order to schedule classes. If you do not return to the university within one year, you must apply for readmission.

Minors An academic minor is intended as an option that enriches your educational experience in a field outside of the discipline of your major course of study. To secure the advantages of focus and depth, the courses that comprise a minor must be a well-designed set within a single discipline, or a set that interrelates two or more disciplines, which has sufficient structure to provide you with a working knowledge of the skills and subject matter appropriate to the minor.

You should carefully consider the ramifica- tions before you withdraw from a course. Course withdrawal may delay your graduation and increase your costs by preventing you from accumulating the necessary number of credits or by disrupting the timing of a required sequence of courses in your major. If withdrawing from a course causes you to drop below 12 credit hours for the semester, you will be considered a part- time student which may jeopardize financial aid, athletic eligibility, health insurance, and residence hall status. You should consult with your academic advisor, department chair, or dean before you withdraw from any course after the initial schedule adjustment period.

The program, which is open to all majors, offers courses within the general education curriculum. Honors courses differ from regular offerings by their small enrollment and an emphasis on student participation. First semester students generally enter the program through a group of two or three courses which might include World History I, Honors English, and a social science course such as World Geography or Cultural Anthropology. students also choose representatives for a student Second semester students might take World steering committee which plans social events, History II, Basic Oral Communication, and a supports discussions with distinguished speakers humanities course in music or literature.

Education at a college or university has traditionally had two equally important components — depth and breadth. Depth is provided by the academic major which a student chooses and which prepares him or her for a useful vocation; breadth of knowledge is the concern and aim of the general education curriculum. Since men and women first began to discuss the nature and purpose of education, they have seen in it something more than the mere acquisition of specific knowledge or skills, important as these may be. This something they called a liberal or general education, and the need for it has been based on the ideal a breadth of knowledge is necessary for an individual to become an informed and literate member of society. 54 University Curricula

Shippensburg University subscribes to this participation in it. Each skill is also linked to the ideal. While the selection of an academic major remainder of the general education curriculum and elective courses allows the student freedom and to a student’s entire academic experience. of individual choice, the general education For instance, the world history requirement not program at Shippensburg is rooted in the only provides an awareness current issues and assumption each person shares significant conditions are shaped by their past but also relationships with the larger human community offers broad cultural perspectives which are and must acknowledge the necessary balance useful for the study of any discipline at the between individual preferences and community university.

Two of the most basic institutions in any large, collective society are its governmental structure and its economic system — that is, the ways which a society has chosen to regulate the interaction between individuals and groups and the ways which it has chosen to satisfy and organize its material needs. Both of these frameworks and the remaining institutions of any society are all affected and shaped by their physical environment, the geography in which they are set. In an era of increasingly complex global interaction, an understanding of these institutions in today’s society and the influences which have helped to pattern their development appreciate the effect social forces have on the are vital to the citizens of a participatory individual.
