1 LOCATION The University is located in Alfred, New York, a college town 70 miles south of Rochester, 90 miles southeast of Buffalo, and 70 miles west of Elmira. The campus is easily accessible north-south from U.S. 15, and east-west from N.Y. 17, famous as "America's most scenic highway." The Southern Tier Expressway, now being constructed parallel to N.Y. 17, will soon bring Alfred within four and a half hours of New York City. The Erie Lackawanna Railroad serves nearby Hornell. The Short Line bus to New York'City stops at nearby Andover, and chartered air service is available from airports at Hornell and Wellsville. Rochester, 37 minutes by air from New York City, is served by the major airlines. A special University bus provides connections with these services.

VISITORS Visitors are welcome at any time. University offices are open regularly Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 noon and from 1 :00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., and guides are usually available. Visitors to the Office of Admissions, in Carnegie Hall, are requested to write in advance for appointments.

Its uniqueness lies during the spring of 1970 for a new Library-Fine Arts Building which will cost in its objectives, its organization, and, more particularly, in the breadth of its an estimated $5 million.

It contains a library; computer center; laboratories for compounding and testing claywares and glass products; petrography and mineralogy laboratories; chemistry laboratories; lecture rooms; a pottery shop; rooms for drafting, drawing, painting and modeling; laboratories for research and development and a two-story kiln room, 194 feet long. An annex, which was constructed in 1949, has been equipped to offer a special course in unit operations and to serve as a pilot plant. In this building advanced studies in product development are conducted. The ceramic laboratories are equipped with apparatus and machinery needed for clay working, glass making, mineral processing, batch mixing, batch prepara­ tion, shaping and forming of ware, melting, drying, firing, testing, and mineral analysis. The special laboratories-such as those for chemistry, petrography, spectroscopy, electron microscopy, x-rays, and mass spectrometry-are com­ pletely equipped. In addition to the major facilities there are available the many small items of equipment and apparatus essential to special studies and research.

8 9 The Computer Center was officially opened on June 21, 1963. An IBM 1800 re~l:time co~puter already has replaced the original IBM 1620 computer and addItional eqUIpment has been acquired to meet rapidly expanding needs. T.h: center is a significant part of the teaching and research facilities, pro­ vIdmg for research activity and computing instruction in conjunction with the engineering, scientific, and technological courses. Other functions of the Center ~nclude aiding i~ student registration procedures, keeping student records, grad­ mg and evaluatmg student exams, and handling acounting procedures of the College of Ceramics. In the corridors of Binns-Merrill Hall are various exhibits and displays which indicate the products and the processes as well as the arts and sciences with which the College is concerned. Notable among the exhibits are the Binns Pottery Collection, the Carder Glass Collection, the Silverman Glass Collection, the Locke Glass Collection, the Wesp Collection, and the John R. Fox Collection. PHILOSOPHY A~other building occupied in 1963 provides an air conditioned laboratory OF THE UNIVERSITY approxImately 40 by 80 feet with facilities for graduate student research includ­ ing the electron microscope and electron microbe am probe. In the basement of this building there are a glass-working shop and a small machine shop for use by graduate students. Some of the research which is under the direction of the College staff is housed in buildings owned by Alfred University.

"Ceramics" is derived from the Greek word "Keramos," which means Although referred to as the atomic or space age, it is also considered to be "fired earth". Since the beginning of recorded time, man has made and used the age of ceramics. Present and future developments will depend upon the ceramic products.

Professor RANDALL, Chairman; Professors RHODES, WOOD; Associate Professors CUSHING, PARRY, TURNER; Assistant Professors BILLECI, CARR, DA VIDSON, HIGGINS, KA VESH, RENNER, SNODGRASS, UNDERHILL and ZWEYGARDT College of Ceramics The Bachelor of Fine Arts degree (B.F.A.) program offers four years of study in art, design, science and the humanities. The program has two main Curricula objectives: to build a general education with a specialization in art; to prepare the talented student for graduate work in the various art and design programs offered by graduate schools throughout the country and abroad. ART A two-year foundation program is required. This includes lecture studies in history, literature, mathematics, sciences and the history of art-and studio studies which bridge painting, sculpture, visual design, dimensional design, I ENGINEERING and pottery. Each student will be evaluated by the faculty of the Art Depart­ i' ment in the spring term of his sophomore year. This will involve a compre­ hensive review of performance in the studio courses of the foundation program. SCIENCE This review together with his academic record will determine the student's advancement into the junior year of the B.F.A. program and will aid the stu­ GLASS dent and his adviser in planning the direction of his studies. During the last two years 32 credit hours may be elected in a range of liberal arts subjects to build a creative education of a general nature-or in studio studies as major preparation for graduate work in painting, sculpture, graphics, design, or ceramics. A minimum of 28 upper-division credit hours in anyone of these areas must be presented for the B.F.A. degree. A total of 138 credit hours is required for graduation. Owing to space limitations admission to the program is restricted, with preference being given to applicants who are in the upper third of their high school graduating class and who show evidence of exceptional ability in art and design. Consideration will always be given to those applicants with unu­ sual background or preparation. Those qualified for advanced study in ceramic art may be offered a two­ year residence program leading to the Master of Fine Arts degree (M.F.A.). This program provides for a concentrated development of ceramics in its historical, technical, and aesthetic dimensions. Its objective is to help the talented prepare for a way of life in the ceramic arts, a professional career in design, or for the college level responsibilities of artist-teacher in the ceramic disciplines.

20 21 · The College retains the right to keep any work produced by a student which was done as a part' of his academic requirements. However, this right is exercised in the case of only a few works, usually those which are held for study, later exhibition, or for the permanent college collection. All work must be presented for evaluation. Those items which have been evaluated and which are not retained by the College become the property of the student.
