The Terminal and Trade Division, as organized in Weber College, includes all of those programs of study which culminate in two years or less, and all of those courses which are numbered 50 and above. Its purpose is largely to prepare students to enter the semi-professions and the trades. Many academic subjects numbered below 50, however, are included in the programs of study for semi-professions and trades. Authorities on the junior college point out three occupational areas: namely, (1) the professions, the training for which requires a college course of at least four years' duration, and a degree; (2) the semi-professions, the training for which requires the completion of a college course of approximately two years in length; and (3) the trades. The Terminal and Trade Divisions is established in order to qualify students for the latter two occupational areas. Eligibility Eligibility rules shall apply to those students who participate in competitive activities for which the school makes an award. In order to be eligible to represent the school in any competitive activity, students must: (1) be graduated from a standard high school, or have fifteen units of high school credit; (2) be registered for at least ten hours of college work, or the equivalent amount in the terminal division; and (3) show evidence that they have passed ten hours of college work, or its equivalent, during the last quarter of attendance. Eligibility must be affirmed twice during the quarter; namely, after the fourth and eighth week. Failure to pass ten hours of college work, or its equivalent in the terminal division, places the student on probation for two weeks. If, at the end of the probationary period, work is not made up to a satisfactory level the student is declared ineligible for the quarter. Weber College aims to keep the individual working at his maximum capacity as well as to maintain wholesome standards for those in competition. The Guidance Committee may advise that students of exceptional ability who are not showing a commendable attitude toward their work be declared ineligible in spite of the fact that these students are living up to the letter of the eligibility rules. The Guidance Committtee may also recommend that the eligibility committee be lenient wth certain less talented individuals who are working up to capacity and exhibiting a good attitude but failing to qualify to the letter of the rules; however, in the case of inter-school athletics the committee cannot permit individuals to participate who do not qualify by all regulations of the Intermountain Junior College Athletic Conference. The Eligibility Committee, however, is not bound by any recommendations of the Guidance Committee. Instructors in charge of the activity must file the names of their candidates for the activity two weeks before active competition begins. Directors of the opera, drama, the school paper, the school magazine, and the year book shall file their lists before positions are given or before any office or part is officially given. In the case of an opera, or a school play, eligibility extends throughout the full duration of the production. In all other cases, eligibility must be affirmed at the end of the fourth and eighth week period as stated above. Student Liability The Weber College Athletic Council is not in any way liable for injuries or illnesses which occur to athletes as a result of participation in the activities sponsored by the college. It is assumed that all who engage in athletics have received permission from parent or guardian to participate and to accept full responsibility.
