Graphic Services Coordinator The information in the 2011-2012 Aquinas College Academic Catalog is sub- ject to change without notice in order to reflect the decisions made by federal and state governments and by the Aquinas College Board of Trustees and Administration. These changes may include the elimination or modification of programs, departments, courses, policies, or other academic activities, the scheduling of classes, the cancellation of scheduled classes, and the ad- justment of fees. If changes are made, the College may offer or require rea- sonably practical alternatives. Payment of tuition shall constitute a student’s acceptance of the College’s rights set forth in this paragraph. Academic Catalog 2011–2012 Aquinas College: 125 Years of Prayer, Study, Community and Service Aquinas College had its origins in a training school that Dominican sisters estab- lished in Traverse City in 1886 to train novices to teach in Michigan’s Catholic schools. That teacher certification program, known as Novitiate Normal School, moved to Grand Rapids in 1911. In 1922, the school underwent a name change to Sacred Heart College when it admitted lay women for the first time. The next name change—to Marywood College—came in 1927 to reflect the school’s loca- tion at the Marywood Motherhouse on Fulton Street. In 1931, under the leader- ship of Mother Eveline Mackey, O.P., and with the cooperation of Bishop Joseph Pinten, the school evolved into Catholic Junior College and admitted male stu- dents, becoming the first Catholic coeducational college in the United States to be run by an order of religious women. It evolved into the four-year Aquinas College in 1940. Throughout the years, the College has kept true to its founding values of prayer, study, service and community. As it weathered two world wars, the Great De- pression, and the social upheavals of the late 20th century, the College’s admin- istration, faculty, staff, students, and alumni recognized that what made Aquinas unique was its adherence to the Catholic Dominican intellectual tradition. Founded by a religious order of women and staffed primarily by religious sis- ters and priests during its first sixty or more years, Aquinas College has always recognized that the life of the mind and the life of the spirit are interfused. The sacramental life of the Catholic Church was, and is, the source of the College’s constant self-renewal. An Aquinas education is rooted in the liberal arts tradition that began in the Eu- ropean Middle Ages with the rise of the universities. The general education pro- gram emphasizes the integration of faith and reason as it seeks to expose stu- dents to various academic disciplines in addition to the student’s major. Throughout its history, Aquinas College and its predecessor schools were not just institutions of book learning and job preparation. From the start, the College called on itself to serve the world. Whether it was the original teaching sisters of the order staffing many of the parish schools in northern and western Michigan in the 1800’s, the men and women students who enlisted in the armed services, the various groups of students and staff who took service trips to Appalachia with Fa- ther Bukowski in the 1950’s, or those in the College who helped found the East- own Community Organization in the 1960’s, the College saw service to the world as part of its essential Catholic Christian purpose. All of this has fostered the growth of a strong community, which often refers to itself as the Aquinas “family,” and that sense of an enduring community is one of Aquinas’s greatest strengths. Academic year 2011-2012 marks the 125th anniversary of this premier Catholic liberal arts college dedicated to prayer, study, community and service.

  • 1985-01-A: Requirements for Initiation Or Change of Credit- Based Academic Programs
    PA State System of Higher Education Board of Governors Effective: March 19, 1985 Page 1 of 3 Policy 1985-01-A: Requirements for Initiation or Change of Credit- Based Academic Programs See Also: Adopted: March 19, 1985 Amended: October 9, 2003, January 19, 2012, April 10, 2014, October 8, 2015, January 25, 2018, and July 12, 2018 A. Purpose To delegate to the Chancellor the Board of Governors’ authority as set forth in 24 PS 20- 2006A(a)(5) for the approval of new undergraduate and graduate degree programs. B. Introduction The high-value and relevant academic programs of Pennsylvania’s State System of Higher Education universities prepare our students for success in their lives and careers in our global society. This policy will ensure all new academic programs undergo a consistent, fair, and timely process to determine the need and appropriateness for the State System. C. Definitions Academic Major: Main field of study in an academic program. For baccalaureate degrees, the academic major (comprised of core and cognate courses) and general education are the two principal components of the degree. For master’s degrees, the academic major (common core), concentration or specialization, and capstone experience(s) are the principal components of the degree. Academic major can be a sequence of courses, activities, and/or experiences constituting a major field of study, culminating in a credit-based degree or certificate. Academic Minor: An organized program of study that comprises the fundamental requirements of an academic major (core and cognate courses) equivalent to a minimum of 18 semester credit hours. As a secondary field of study, the academic minor should reflect a minimum of six credits of advanced standing coursework.
