cyjdmini^txation Purposes and Programs Organized as a two-year state junior college offering two years of lower division work paralleling that of the universities, and two years or less of terminal work, Weber College serves at least four major groups of students: (1) those preparing for upper division standing in institutions of higher learning; (2) those seeking a cultural education in courses that terminate at the end of the college sophomore year; (3) those desiring two years of semi-professional, trade and industrial, business, or other vocational training that will qualify them to enter the commercial and industrial world; and (4) those needing short-term courses and cooperative programs. Weber College promotes, as its primary purpose, the development of its students along socially desirable lines. It accepts as its first obligation the undergirding of American democracy through the development of an enlightened citizenry. It also shares, with the community and the home, responsibility for the development in its students of personality and ethical character. Weber College follows a philosophy which maintains that education should prepare a student to make both a life and a living. Therefore, academic courses are planned with their vocational values in mind, and vocational courses are given with the aim of promoting every opportunity for cultural development. The College subscribes, also, to changing emphases in education: from subject matter to student growth, from subject content to student needs, from the accumulation of information as an end in itself, to the modification of behavior. Yet along with this liberalization of its purposes and offerings, it persistently seeks to maintain high standards of scholarship and performance in all fields. Weber College aims to realize its objectives by means of its Program of Studies and Program of Services. The curriculum includes the students' out-of-class activities as well as their in-class activities, the instruction proper. At considerable expense, the College conducts a continuous curriculum-building program to meet the needs of its four major groups of students. It aims to keep its curricula sensitive to social changes, and to community and individual needs. The Program of Studies is recommended to the President by the chairmen of the Divisions of the College: Economics and Business, Humanities, Life Sciences, Mathematics and Physical Sciences, Physical Education, Social Sciences, and Technical Education. The Programs of Evening School and Summer Session include courses from any one of the Divisions. The Program of Services complements the Program of Studies by providing faculty services for students in matters pertaining to their admission, graduation, scholastic regulations/ guidance, health, housing, financial problems, placement; and faculty advisory and supervisory services for their out-of-class activities, including student and faculty- sponsored student activities and community activities. Such activities are 'more directly and immediately concerned with giving students experiences in the democratic ways of life, and with placing them in situations for creating personality, ethical character, and enriched living. £A zoazam o '3 E71ULCEA. Admissions and Graduations ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS Weber College admits students classified as follows: (1) Matriculated Students for Transfer Curricula, (2) Unmatriculated Students for Transfer Curricula, and (3) Matriculated Students for Terminal Curricula. 1. A matriculated student for transfer curricula must be a graduate of an accredited high school, or present fifteen units of approved high school work that does not include more than one unit of physical education. If the student fails to present fifteen units of high school work, he may qualify for admission provided (1) he is eighteen years of age or older, and (2) he passes the General Educational Development Tests or Subject Tests as developed by the U. S. Armed Forces Institute, or other comparable tests approved and recommended by the American Council on Education. If the student takes the Subject Tests, he must pass in a sufficient number of subjects to total the approved fifteen units required for entrance. In addition to the above requirements, a student seeking admission to any division or department of the College shall be required to present credits in courses specified by the department as prerequisites. When a student has fifteen units of high school work but is deficient in one or more specified units as required in his major field, he will be expected to make up that deficiency before the end of the freshman year. (See specific entrance requirements listed under each Division.) 2. A student eighteen years of age or older who is deficient either in the number of high school credits or in the specific subjects required in his major field may register as an unmatriculated student, provided: (a) he passes the General Educational Development Tests before or during his first quarter of attendance; or (b) he passes the Subject. Examination Test as developed by the U. S. Armed Forces Institute before the close of his freshman year; or (c) he demonstrates his ability to handle the course because of his maturity. 3. A matriculated student for terminal curricula must present fifteen units of high school work or must have attained the age of eighteen years. If a terminal student does not present fifteen units of high school credit, a recommendation from the principal of the high school he last attended must be submitted, provided the student has been in attendance at a high school within one year preceding the time of application for admission to Weber College. In addition, a student who does not present fifteen units for entrance is required to demonstrate to the Faculty through the aptitude tests and physical examinations that he is capable of succeeding in the occupation he has selected. A terminal student is not preparing for higher degrees. He pursues a terminal course and at the completion of this work receives a Certificate of Completion in the field wherein his specific requirements have been met. These requirements may not satisfy the entrance requirements of the higher institutions of the State.
