Show Arts, Letters and Science Students may receive minors in the above fields and also in the following additional areas: Aerospace Studies Anthropology Biology Military Science Philosophy Photography The School of Arts, Letters and Science works closely with the School of Education in preparing students for teaching majors and minors and composite teaching majors. (See School of Education and departmental sections of catalog for listings and descriptions.) As suggested above, within the School of Arts, Letters and Science a number of programs preparatory for the professions is provided. These include pre-architecture, pre-dental, pre- engineering, pre-law, pre-medicine, pre-pharmacy, and pre- veterinary medicine. A limited number of programs of a terminal, technical and less than baccalaureate level are offered within the School. Included in this category are the dental assistants program, the two year nursing program and X-ray technology. Opportunity is also given students to receive Associate Titles at the conclusion of two years of study, provided the general education requirements and the appropriate specific requirements are met. Thus, the School of Arts, Letters and Science, with its broad offering and its numerous and varied programs is able to meet the needs of students with greatly differing interests. Meeting the needs of the students within the School more effectively is accomplished through cooperative action involving academic advisement in the departments, direction given by the Assistant Dean in charge of General Education, guidance provided by the Coordinator of General Studies, and professional counseling assistance given through the office of the Director of Counseling. Requirements for the completion of specific programs in the School of Arts, Letters and Science are indicated in the appropriate departmental sections of the catalog. The general requirements for the baccalaureate degree and the area requirements are as indicated on pages 67 to 74 of the catalog. For those who plan to teach, professional education requirements are as specified by the School of Education. Aerospace Studies The Department of Aerospace Studies offers the two year Air Force ROTC Program normally leading to a commission as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Air Force. Male students who have two years academic work left before receiving their degree—either baccalaureate or graduate—meet the basic 94 Arts, Letters and Science eligibility requirements. They may be married or single. Entry into the program is selective and is normally made at the beginning of each academic year. Interested applicants should apply to the Professor of Aerospace Studies for entry into the program in the Fall Quarter prior to entry. This will permit the orderly accomplishment of prerequisites required prior to entry. A normal schedule of accomplishment is: Sept-Dec Dec-Feb Apply and take the USAF Officer Qualifying Tests. Accomplish Air Force Physical Examination. Meet Air Force ROTC Selection Board. June through Sept Attend Six week Summer Field Training Unit. September Enroll in Air Force ROTC a Cadet Second Lieutenant. Students may qualify for flying officer (Pilot or Navigator), Scientific or Technical Officer, or Non-Technical Officer. Those accepted into the program and appointed Cadet Second Lieutenants must agree to: a. Complete work for their Degree. b. Agree to accept, if offered, a Commission in the United States Air Force. c. Participate in three classroom hours of Air Force ROTC instruction each week for the two years. d. Agree to serve for a period of not less than four years on active duty (five years if flying officer candidate). Fully enrolled Cadet Lieutenants are deferred from selective service. All cadets receive $40 per month for the two academic years. This amount is tax free. Delays in reporting for active duty to enable an individual to take graduate studies are normally approved. Qualified Seniors who are Pilot Officer candidates are offered 36V2 hours of flight training at a civilian flying school located near the University. Successful completion qualifies the student for the private pilot's license examination. Students should be prepared to travel to the University of Utah for classes at their own expense if necessary.
