RIGHTS AND PRIVACY ACT PROVISIONS

Each year, La Salle University informs students of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. This Act was intended to protect the privacy of educational records, to establish the right of students to inspect and review their educational records, and to provide guidelines for the correction of inaccurate or misleading data through informal or formal hearings. To fulfill basic requirements for compliance with the Act, each institution must inform each student of his/her right to prevent disclosure of personally identifiable information. Although La Salle does not publish a public directory, the Office of the Registrar, at its discretion, does disclose the following information: Name, address, dates of attendance, class, major field of study, and degree(s) conferred (including dates). Under the provisions of the Rights and Privacy Act, currently enrolled students may withhold disclosure of such information. To prevent disclosure, written notification must be received by the Office of the Registrar by October 1st in the Fall Semester and February 15th in the Spring Semester. The University will honor each request to withhold any of the categories of information listed above but cannot assume responsibility to contact a student for subsequent permission to release them. Decisions about withholding any information should be made very carefully. Should a student decide to inform the institution not to release any information, any future requests for such information from non-institutional persons or organizations will be refused. La Salle University assumes that failure to request the withholding of "directory information" indicates approval for disclosure.

To comply fully with the provisions of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's Act 73, the College and University Security Information Act of 1988, La Salle University has available its Crime Statistics Report for 1994, as well as a publication entitled "Safety and Security at La Salle University." Copies of either document may be requested without charge in writing from the Office of Public Relations, La Salle University, Philadelphia, PA 19141.

To comply with Federal Consumer Information Regulations, La Salle makes available upon request a report on job placement statistics and graduation rates. A copy of the 1995 report may be requested in writing from the Vice President for Enrollment Services, La Salle University, Philadelphia, PA 19141.

Salle University has evolved over the past decade from a liberal arts Lacollege serving the Philadelphia area into a comprehensive university of increasing national prominence. But it has lost none of the warmth, accessibility, and respect for the individual that have characterized the school

since it was established by a Catholic teaching order in 1863.

Though often mistakenly connected with the French explorer, the name of the University commemorates the 17th-century French educator and founder of the Christian Brothers, John Baptist de La Salle. The traditions of this saintly, innovative educator have been continued by the Brothers, a non-clerical order of religious who have been teaching in the United States since 1845. Under the auspices of the Brothers, the University strives to con- tinue such Lasallian traditions as devotion to excellence in teaching, con- cern for ultimate values and for the individual values of its students.

In the light of these traditions, La Salle offers students an education founded on the idea that people's intellectual and spiritual development go hand in hand, complementing and fulfilling one another. The basic pur-

pose of the University is a free search for truth and the development of ma- terials and skills necessary for the search; its religious concern is an extension of that purpose. In a company of mature teachers and scholars, the University urges students to confront the ultimate questions of human

experience: who they are; where their destiny lies; how they are to reach it.

La Salle is committed to a liberal education of both general and special- ized studies. It wants its students to liberate themselves from narrow inter- ests and prejudices and to learn to observe reality with precision, judge events and opinions critically, think logically, communicate effectively, and sharpen aesthetic perception. The curriculum involves a body of knowledge about the universe; about people—their nature, behavior, and values; about God. It also provides an opportunity to gain specialized knowledge in one field of learning as a preparation for graduate study or entry into pro-

fessional life. Beyond this breadth and depth of knowledge, the University

encourages its students to seek wisdom; that is, to grasp those basic princi- ples which can give order to particular facts.

Although remains its primary purpose, La Salle also offers Master's programs in selected areas of specialization. For the most part, these programs focus on professional goals through ad- vanced study and through application of theoretical knowledge in the fields represented.

As a private Catholic university, La Salle pursues these aims in a relig- iously diverse community of teachers and students interested in studying secular subjects in their autonomy, undertaking religious studies in a sys- tematic and critical way, and investigating what interrelations these sub- jects may have. The community also engages in programs in which the students' personal, social, and religious values may take root and in which the students may grow in mature attitudes and behavior in all human rela-

tionships. The ultimate hope of the University is that its graduates will be ready for informed service and progressive leadership in their communities and will be able to fulfill the immediate and final goals of their lives. ADMISSION / 5

Examples of the application of the policy are available, upon request, in the Bursar's office. Any students or parents who believe that individ- ual circumstances warrant exceptions from the published policy may appeal to the Dean of the particular school.

Under the Department of Education regulations, priority is given to the return of funds to Title IV assistance programs in the following order: Federal Stafford Loan, Federal Plus Loan, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Pell Grant, and FSEOG. Students should be aware that the regulations may prevent the refund of any personal funds used for payment of tuition and fees. In instances where a student has received a cash disbursement prior to the recording of his or her withdrawal, the stu-

dent may be required to return those funds to the University.

PRO RATA REFUNDS

In accordance with the Higher Education Amendments of 1992, La Salle University provides a pro rata refund policy for both undergraduate and graduate students who are attending the University for the first time and receive Title IVAssistance (in- cluding Federal Parent Loans received on the student's behalf). Pro rata refunds are extended to those students who qualify and withdraw prior to the tenth week of class. The refund will be a percentage determined by dividing the total number of weeks in a semester for which the student has been charged into the number of weeks remaining in the semester as of the last recorded day of attendance by the stu- dent, rounded downward to the nearest ten percent. Refunds of tuition, fees, room and board, and other charges to a stu- dent will be made according to the following schedules:

Time of Withdrawal Tuition & Room Refund Meal Plan Refund

Before first day of class 100% Balance in Account

During first week 90% Balance in Account During second or third week 80% Balance in Account During fourth week 70% Balance in Account

The mission of the School of Business Administration is to offer educational programs which prepare students for a pur-

poseful life by integrating Lasallian values with current business management skills.

Through its faculty, curricular environment, and linkages with the business community, the School of Business creates

a value-centered educational community as the setting for its educational programs.

Within this context it seeks to provide an appropriate blend of contemporary business theory and practice, placing para- mount importance on teaching and learning enriched by scholarly research and professional activity.

The primary purpose of the School of Business undergraduate program is to prepare students to lead an enriched per-

sonal life and to prepare them to enter upon a successful professional career through exposure to traditional liberal arts and a contemporary business education.

The School of Business strives to fulfill its mission by requiring students to develop communications, analytic, and deci-

sion-making skills, by developing in students the ability to define and synthesize, by helping students to form inde- pendent, well-reasoned judgments, and by exposing students to common business research methods and practice. Teaching and learning are of paramount importance. We believe we should: • know each student as an individual;

• challenge each student to work toward attaining his or her best performance level;

• utilize the curriculum to help students identify the ethical dimensions embedded in business management; • immerse students in a learning environment which blends current business theory and practice.

Continuous quality improvement processes ensure THE CURRICULUM that the many offerings of the School of Business The program leading to a degree in are of the highest quality.

COOPERATIVE EDUCATION AND INTERNSHIPS

The co-op and internship programs are designed to give the student a hands-on work experience related to his or her major. Participation provides an opportunity to link the theory and practice of the discipline. Students generally participate during their junior or senior years. Students earn 3 credits for internships and co-ops.

Internship: Involves a part-time work experience for one semester in the student's major and is not paid. The student ordi- narily carries a full academic schedule along with the internship. One or two internships may be taken. Course numbering is 360 and 460; see course descriptions for further detail.

Co-op: Involves a full-time work experience of up to six months. It is a paid position ordinarily related to the student's ma- jor. A student taking a co-op may graduate in four years by following the model roster below.

MBA BASIC CORE EQUIVALENTS

You can reduce the number of courses required to earn a Master's degree in Business Administration at La Salle by earning A's or B's in certain required undergraduate courses.

There is a body of undergraduate coursework, drawn primarily from the Business Curriculum, which can be used to waive up to 24 credits of foundation level coursework for the La Salle MBA degree. All of these undergraduate courses

are required for all undergraduate business majors. By earning a minimum "B" grade in the undergraduate course(s), the corresponding MBA course requirement will be waived. These courses are as follows:
