Besides specific courses preparing students for a broad variety of occupational categories, General Education classes furnish an extensive breadth of knowledge and a keen appreciation for moral, intellectual, and aesthetic values. The School functions in close harmony with other academic units across campus. Programs of the School are guided by the following objectives: • To provide ordered and meaningful inquiry into the Social Sciences as a critical element of education for life. • To offer at the undergraduate level appropriate specialized and professional instruction (majors and minors) in the disciplines administered within the School and to aid in the preparation of teachers. • To encourage research both by students and faculty, especially in those areas enabling students to become more effective members of society. • To enrich the intellectual and cultural climate of the College and the community it serves. Although stressing breadth of education, curricula of the School afford enough specialization and career education to prepare students for enrollment in professional schools and graduate programs or for participation in various occupational classifications immediately upon graduation. Students completing baccalaureate programs in the School will be granted either the bachelor of arts or the bachelor of science degree. Students may take departmental majors and minors in the following fields: Majors Criminal Justice Gerontology History* Political Science* Psychology* Sociology* Social Science Composite** Social Work * Teaching majors & minors are also available **Teaching majors only Minors Aerospace Studies Anthropology Asian Studies Criminal Justice Gerontology History* Latin American Studies Legal Studies Military Science Naval Science Philosophy Political Science* Psychology* Sociology* DEPARTMENT OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE Chair: Paul H.
