Seager, Chairman Professor, Spencer L. Seager; Associate Professors, Robert R. Beishline, Ervin P. Guymon, Bryant A. Miner, Garth L. Welch; Assistant Professors, Helen J. James, Michael R. Slabough, H. Stephen Stoker. The Chemistry curriculum provides a sound foundation in both the facts and principles of chemistry. Physics and mathematics are emphasized since these subjects are essential to an adequate understanding of chemistry. The required courses in English and the elective areas insure study in nontechnical subjects; broadening the student's general education and enabling him to relate his study of chemistry to other fields of knowledge. The Department of Chemistry offers two beginning sequences. Chemistry 111, 112, 113 is a series for students who will take chemistry for one year or less. Chemistry 121, 122, and 123 is the basic beginning sequence for students majoring in areas which require more than one year of chemistiy. A maximum of fifteen quarter hours in Chemistry 111-113, and 121-123 will be accepted toward fulfilling graduation requirements. BACCALAUREATE DEGREE REQUIREMENTS The Department of Chemistry is approved and certified by the American Chemical Society. Two options are offered which lead to the B.A. or B.S. degree in chemistry. The certification option meets all the requirements of the ACS and graduates' names are submitted to the ACS and certified by the department. The non-certified option does not meet the requirements of the ACS and is intended for students who do not 96 97 |
