Division of Social Sciences Dello G. Dayton, Chairman The Social Science Division represents the grouping of seven departments within a functional organization for coordinating related subject fields of instruction. The seven departments included within this grouping are: The Department of General Education for Social Sciences, the Department of Anthropology, the Department of History and Political Science, the Department of Orientation, the Department of Philosophy, the Department of Psychology and Education, and the Department of Sociology. Principles of Economics (Economic 1 and 2), and American Economic History (Economics 4) are acceptable in partial fulfillment of Scial Science requirements for graduation. (See Department of Economics for detailed description of the courses.) The Social Science Division provides an opportunity for all students of Weber College to obtain a general education in the area of the social sciences. The division strives to establish in the students with whom it comes in contact a consciousness of and a responsibility to their cultural environment. It endeavors to. awaken in the emotions as well as in the minds of students an awareness of the many problems of society—present, past, and future. Students majoring in subject areas within the scope of the Social Science Division are offered a variety of courses which will serve as a substantial foundation for more advanced upper division and graduate study. General and preparatory courses may be taken in the special fields of psychology, education, sociology, history, law, philosophy, anthropology, and political science. DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL EDUCATION FOR SOCIAL SCIENCES H. C. Bateman and W. D. Stratford The pattern of the integrated subject matter contained in the two general courses of this department of the Social Sciences is in keeping with the trends of many American Colleges. These general courses provide the student with comprehensive understanding and functional concepts of great social, political, and economic issues of the past and present that might lead to more effective and desirable living. Students who complete the nine credit hours in these two courses or nine hours in a proper combination of other courses offered in the division will satisfy the social science group requirements, though work beyond the nine hours is recommended. The general integrated courses are designed primarily for students who are not social science majors.
