2 Young Harris College History

Brief History of Young Harris College

Young Harris College was founded in January 1886 by Methodist circuit-riding minister Rev. Artemas Lester who saw the need for education for youth in the area. The College was soon adopted by what is now the North Georgia Conference of The . Judge Young L. G. Harris of Athens, Georgia, became the College’s first major benefactor, and the institute and town changed their names from McTyeire to recognize his generosity. The College was renamed Young Harris Institute and, post-1891, came to be known as Young Harris College. Young Harris College has always strived to provide an academic program best suited for its students. During its first two decades, the College offered elementary and high school programs, along with awarding the bachelor of science and the degrees. By 1958, Young Harris College only offered the two-year college program. However, after much research by the trustees, faculty, staff, and administrators, the board of trustees voted in April 2007 to allow Young Harris College to move from awarding associate degrees to becoming a baccalaureate degree granting institution. In December 2008, the College earned approval from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to begin awarding baccalaureate degrees in fall 2009. In May 2011, the College graduated its first class of college seniors since its first two decades of existence, and in June received its ten year reaffirmation. As of August 2018, the College offers twenty –five bacca- laureate programs, twenty-two minors, eight post-baccalaureate education programs, and four secondary certifications. In the 133 years since it was established, Young Harris College has evolved from a log store- house into a thriving campus. In addition to enhancing its physical facilities, the College has continued to strengthen its faculty, instruction, and curriculum. Throughout late 2007 and summer 2008, the College underwent a comprehensive Master Planning process which is providing direction for the institution for the next twenty to thirty years as its facilities grow to meet the needs of its students. A 200-bed residence hall, Enotah, opened in fall 2009, and a new state-of-the-art Recrea- tion Center and twelve-court tennis center opened in fall 2010, and fall 2011 a new village opened, housing 148 students. The Towers, a unique housing community for first-year students opened in fall 2013. In fall 2014 ,Young Harris College opened the Rollins Campus Center. The Rollins Campus Center connects four distinct areas in a single, state-of-the-art structure: a 60,000-square- foot multi-purpose student center, an expanded dining hall boasting a wide variety of food stations, a 350-seat, versatile banquet facility and a 40,000-square-foot modern library. Noted alumni include: former Georgia Governor and U. S. Senator ’51, U.S. Senator Earl L. ‘Buddy” Carter ’77, former Georgia Governor E.D. Rivers ’15; W.

11 General Education Curriculum

General Education Curriculum The goal of the Young Harris College core curriculum is to enable each student, through rigorous study in the liberal arts, to do the following. Please see the notes that follow the categories and credit-hour requirements for important information about course options and course credit.

Communicate Effectively (9 hours) Students complete three courses that challenge them to develop written and spoken skills fundamental to responsible communication. "The medium is the message. This is merely to say that the personal and social consequences of any medium—that is, of any extension of ourselves—result from the new scale that is introduced into our affairs by each extension of ourselves, or by any new technology." Marshall McLuhan

Investigate Nature (7 hours) Students complete two courses that challenge them to develop their skills and knowledge in the natural sciences. At least one course must include a lab component and challenge students to apply their skills and knowledge in laboratory and experimental settings. "Natural science does not simply describe and explain nature; it is part of the interplay between nature and ourselves." Werner Heisenberg

Explore Mathematics (3 hours) Students complete one MATH-prefixed course that challenges them to develop their abilities to solve problems by analyzing properties of functions and investigating relationships among functions. Course is determined by placement. "Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas." Albert Einstein

Interpret Texts (6 hours) Students complete two courses that challenge them to develop their ability to interpret and analyze diffi- cult texts. Courses in this category include substantial reading assignments and require close analysis of challenging primary or secondary texts. "All meanings, we know, depend on the key of interpretation." George Eliot

12 Analyze Societies (6 hours) Students complete two courses that challenge them to develop their comprehension of historical and social powers and effects. All students must take at least one course that fulfills the Georgia Board of Regents' mandate that all graduates successfully complete coursework in U. S. and GA history and the U. S. and GA Constitution*. "Even if one is interested only in one's own society, which is one's prerogative, one can understand that society much better by comparing it with others." Peter L. Berger

Know Oneself (3 hours) Students complete one course that develops their proficiency in self-analysis. "The unexamined life is not worth living." Socrates

Engage Art (3 hours) Students complete one course that challenges them to develop their creativity and understanding of fine or performing arts. "Interpretation is the revenge of the intellectual upon art." Susan Sontag

Expand Horizons (6 hours) Students complete courses that challenge them to develop their familiarity and fluency in diverse cultures through the study of foreign language. "No matter how far a person can go, the horizon is still way beyond you." Zora Neale Hurston Foreign Language—Students begin study of foreign language in FREN or SPAN 101 and demonstrate competency by successfully completing FREN/SPAN 1102 Exceptions to the foreign language requirement are as follows: Students pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology, Business & Public Policy, Chemistry, Educa- tion, Environmental Science, Interdisciplinary Studies, Mathematics, Psychology, or Outdoor Leadership, A Bachelor of Music Education degree, or a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Musical Theater are not re- quired to complete studies in a foreign language. Students whose French or Spanish skills ae sufficiently developed may elect to take the Foreign Language Placement test to assess their skill level. Students who place into FREN/SPAN 1102 will satisfy the foreign language requirement by successfully completing this course. Students who place above FREN/SPAN 1102 will confirm competency through an interview with the Foreign Language faculty. Students who do not demonstrate competency through this interview will be placed in the appropriate FREN/SPAN course.

13 Heritage speakers (students who speak French or Spanish and earned their high school diploma in the U.S.) fulfill the foreign language requirement by takin one three-hour course, either FREN 2600 French for the Heritage Speaker or SPAN 2600 Spanish for the Heritage Speaker. Native speakers (students who earned their high school diploma in a country whose official language is not English) may exempt the foreign language requirement. THE FOREIGN LANGUAGE PLACEMENT TEST The Foreign Language Placement Test is offered during START orientation and at least once in each fall and spring semester. The test requires a small fee, which is published in the YHC Catalog in the section on the Business Office. Students may take the placement test only once. Students who plan to take the Foreign Language Placement Test are encouraged to do so early in their college careers, particularly if they will pursue a language in college that they studied in high school. Note: Students required to take fewer than six hours of foreign language coursework may elect to take six hours in Foreign Language if they wish. Otherwise, students must take the necessary hours as additional general electives.

Total General Education Hours: 37-43

Course Options- To encourage students to take courses in a variety of disciplines while still allowing choice in selecting the courses used to fulfill core requirements, students may take no more than one course in a given discipline to complete core requirements. A discipline is defined as a distinct body of academic study, regardless of departmental designation. (For example, Religious Studies is a separate discipline from Philosophy.) The one course per discipline includes the following exceptions. (1)Students can take one additional 2000-level course in English beyond the two-course composition sequence (ENGL 1101 and 1102). (2)Students can take one additional Communications Studies course beyond the course used to fulfill the speaking requirement (COMM 1000 or 1100). (3) Students pursuing certain professional degrees with discipline-specific accreditation may be allowed to take more than one course in the area of focus. (4) Students can take two courses in the same foreign language. (5) Students can take two courses in the same discipline in natural sciences. Course Credit- A single course cannot be used to complete requirements for more than one category. For example, a student taking Art History I could apply this course to either the "Interpret Texts" or "Analyze Art" category, but not both. Cross-listed Courses- Courses listed in more than one discipline can be counted in one discipline or the other, but not both. For example, a course listed as SOCI/PSYC could be counted as a SOCI or PSYC course, but not both.

This building houses the Library collection of monographs, reference books, scores, and audio-visual materials while providing innovative spaces for students to study and collaborate.

The library has memberships in Lyrasis, Online Computing Library Center (OCLC), and Georgia’s Private Academic Libraries (GPALS). The library participates in the World Catalog (OCLC), allowing borrowing from libraries all over the world, and is an active lender in the Interlibrary Loan process. GPALS provides access to Georgia Library Learning Online (GALILEO), giving the campus users searching capabilities in more than thousands of periodicals and conference proceed- ings. Additionally, the library subscribes to other electronic databases including JSTOR, Naxos, BioOne, ScienceDirect, PsycArticles, and Communication and Mass Media Complete. The Library maintains a webpage to allow easy access to electronic resources from anywhere on campus, or off campus via YHC Connect.

Also included in the library special collections are Young Harris College Archives, the Byron Herbert Reece Collection, the Merle B. Mann Collection of Native American artifacts, and the Ogletree Lincolniana Collection.
