TUCSON ARIZONA THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA RECORD (USPS 650 -800) Vol. LXXII, No. 3 June, 1979 All colleges and departments establish certain academic requirements which must be met before a degree is granted. These requirements concern such things as curricula and courses, majors and minors, and campus residence. Advisers, directors, department heads and deans are available to help the student understand and arrange to meet these require- ments, but the student is responsible for fulfilling them. At the end of a student's course of study,if requirements for graduation have not been satisfied, the degree will not be granted. For this reason it is important for each student to acquaint himself or herself with all regulations, to remain currently informed throughout his or her college career and to be responsible for completing requirements. Courses, programs and requirements described in the catalog may be suspended, deleted, restricted, supplemented or changed in any other manner at any time at the sole discretion of the University and the Arizona Board of Regents. The catalog does not establish a contracture! relationship but it summarizes the total requirements which the student must presently meet before qualifying for a faculty recommendation to the Arizona Board of Regents to award a degree. The determination of acceptability of credit for course work completed at another institu- tion of higher learning, whether the other institution is accredited or not, is made solely at the discretion of this institution as guided by its academic policy bodies. Students are ad- visedto check with the Department of Admissions and Records to determine the acceptability of credit from other institutions and its applicability toward a program of study at the University of Arizona. The University of Arizona does not discriminate on the basis of sex, race, creed, color, na- tional origin or handicapping condition in the education programs or activities which it operates and is required by Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 and the regula- tions adopted pursuant thereto in Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 not to discriminate in such manner. The requirement not to discriminate in education programs and activities extends to employment therein and ad- mission thereto. Inquiries concerning the application of said regulations to this University may be referred to the University's Assistant Executive Vice President or the Director of the Office of Civil Rights of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare.
