CEDARVILLE COLLEGE BULLETIN Volume 50 Number 5 June-July 1968 Published bi-monthly by Cedarville College. Entered as second class matter prepaid at the post office at Cedarville, Ohio, April, 1915, under act of Congress of August 24, 1912.
The new library, opened in May 1967, adds greatly to the instructional facilities.
Life is made up of a series of important decisions. One of the most critical is the selection of a college. This is of particular importance to one who is a Christian, for he must not only prepare for his chosen profession; but a lifetime of Christian service, as well. These goals must be carefully considered as one selects his college. Because of its Biblical convictions Cedarville College expresses the view that a Christian college is better qualified to emphasize this two-fold purpose than the many secular institutions in our land. As a Christian college of arts and sciences, we are vitally concerned about the development of the students; not only intellectually, but also socially and spiritually. Our curriculum is thoroughly Bible-oriented and Christ-centered. This is emphasized in the daily chapel services, through the study of required Bible courses, campus organizations, and the Christian service program. Cedarville is a Baptist college, and as such is supported by our churches as a college for all Christian young people, regardless of their denominational affiliation. It has been, and will continue to be, our plan to encourage our students and graduates to serve with wholehearted commitment in the local churches. As you read the following pages we sincerely hope you will find Cedar– ville College to be as exciting and challenging as it is to those of us who serve here. Each member of our faculty and staff is ready to help you now by providing additional information to answer your questions, as well as in the future if you become one of our students. JAMES T. JEREMIAH President of the College

Cedarville College is a Baptist college of arts and sciences enrolling 822 students. A balanced liberal arts program is coupled with an evangelical, con– servative theological position in regard to doctrine and patterns of conduct. In keeping with the liberal arts concept, the curriculum provides for a broad background of general studies combined with a thorough study of the Bible followed by concentrated study in a major field selected by the student in keeping with his area of interest, ability, and professional goals. All classes are taught by dedicated Christian professors who present the knowledge found in the respective courses integrated with Biblical Christian perspectives. SPIRITUAL GROWTH In our complex technical society great emphasis is placed on the importance of a college education. However, education without concern for the spiritual growth of the individual falls far short of the full development of the "whole" person. "... Man shall not live by bread alone ..." Luke 4: 4. As Christian professors present "knowledge" with academic skill in a scriptural frame– work and with spiritual perception, students gain new perspectives for life and service. The spiritual growth of each student is further strengthened as he attends daily chapel services and considers the great truths of the Bible through the required Bible sequence. PURPOSE: The purpose of Cedarville College, a Baptist college of arts and sciences, is to offer its students an education consistent with Biblical truth. To achieve this purpose the college seeks to accomplish the following ob– jectives: 1. To undergird the student in the fundamentals of the Christian faith, and to stimulate him to evaluate knowledge in the light of Scriptural truth. 2. To encourage growth in Christian character in each student, and help the student accept his responsibility in faithful Christian service. 3. To increase the student's awareness of the world of ideas and events which have produced and are influencing our contemporary culture. 4. To offer opportunities for academic specialization and preparation for graduate study. 5. To assist the student in selecting and preparing for a vocation. 6. To prepare the student to participate constructively in our democratic society.
6 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE 7. To foster the student's appreciation of and participation rn wholesome avocational and cultural activities. Cedarville includes as one of its primary functions the training of public school and Christian day school teachers. HISTORY Cedarville College has had a rich heritage. It was established by the Re– formed Presbyterian Church and individuals who had a vital interest in the spiritual welfare of young people. The college was chartered by the State of Ohio on January 26, 1887. During the early days, as now, Christian principles and conduct were stressed as indicated by the following quotation from a former president, "Above all, Cedarville College believes that culture of the mind without the nurture and growth of spiritual life is a mistake. Education without morality is a menace to the state. . accordingly the Bible is a textbook of the college." In 195 3 the operation of the college was transferred to the Trustees of Baptist Bible Institute of Cleveland with the goal of enlarging the institute's ministry. The name, Cedarville College, was retained. The college, now an approved school of the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches, con– tinues to perpetuate the original purpose of its founders. Under the direction of Dr. James T. Jeremiah, president since 1954, the college has experienced phenomenal growth. Since 1959 student enrollment has more than tripled in size. Because of this sudden increase in enrollment, Cedarville College has been forced to greatly expand both its faculty and facilities. During this period of dramatic growth in students, faculty, and facilities, the objectives which have symbolized the college and its spirit through the years have been further strengthened. The tower of "Old Main" represents our link with the past, its foundations and traditions; the cedars symbolize life and growth. The Cedarville College family feels that this growth has brought us to the threshold of an even greater ministry as the college moves ahead with new faith and vision.
THE COLLEGE 7 RECOGNITION CERTIFICATION AND ACCREDITATION The college has been approved by the State Department of Education for the training and certification of elementary school teachers. The admin– istration and education faculty are working diligently to secure similar ap– proval for the secondary curriculum. Until such approval is secured students seeking certification in secondary education may continue to take certain required courses from Central State University which is located just four miles from Cedarville. The college is currently working toward regional accreditation under the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Cedarville holds membership in the Ohio College Association, the Council for the Advancement of small Colleges, the Association of Approved Schools of the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches, and is approved for listing in the Higher Education Directory* published by the Office of Edu– cation, United States Department of Health Education and Welfare. THE CAMPUS Each year the campus facilities are improved and enlarged to provide better student housing, food service, instruction and recreational activities. To keep abreast of the rapid increase in enrollment, facilities have been added or improved each year, and the old buildings have been remodeled and refurbished for more effective use. A new library and large girls' dormitory were opened during the 196768 school year. Both of these facilities contribute substantially to instruc– tional and housing needs. When the new library was opened, the vacated building was refurbished and used for classes in the fine arts. (See dia– gram of the Campus Development Program on the inside of back cover) . LOCATION The natural beauty of the gentle rolling countryside provides an excellent setting. Cedarville College is conveniently located in the rural community of Cedarville, Ohio, which is near a large metropolitan area of one-half million people. The college-centered community is within easy driving distance of beautiful state parks, as well as large and medium sized cities such as Co– lumbus, Dayton, Springfield, Cincinnati and Xenia. The students .find excellent opportunities for worship, practical Christian service, and employment in all of the communities in the area. *To secure listing, officials of three universities must state that they will accept Cedarville College credits as coming from an accredited college.
TRAVEL DIRECTIONS Cedarville is conveniently located near the center of what the governor of Ohio calls the golden triangle formed I-70, I-71 and I-75. The map shows state highways leading from these national highways to Cedarville.
THE COLLEGE 9 ADMINISTRATION BUILDING "Old Main," constructed in 1895, is the original college building. Renova– tion of the exterior and interior of the building is in process. This building houses all administrative offices, some faculty offices, and classrooms. SCIENCE HALL Erected in 1922, Science Hall contains laboratories and classrooms for the physical and biological sciences. The coHege architect and science faculty are working on plans for expansion and improvement of the present build– ing and facilities. MILNER HALL This building was constructed by student labor in the summer and fall of 1954 and was dedicated to Dr. George S. Milner, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, who gave generously for its erection. The building was enlarged in 1959, and currently houses the college bookstore, the Business Administration Department, faculty offices and practice rooms. RESIDENCE HALLS The college maintains residence halls for both men and women. Maddox Hall is the newest and largest dormitory on campus. The other residence halls are Bethel, Faith, Harriman, Williams, Patterson, and the Cedar Park apartments. All students under twenty-five years of age who are not living at home must live in college owned or approved residence quarters. All ar– rangements for off-campus housing are made by the Sn1dent Personnel office. Married students must provide their own living quarters. The college assists these sn1dents in finding suitable housing. THE LIBRARY The new library is an attractive, one story, air-conditioned structure located near the center of the campus, as shown in the revised ten-year master plan for campus development. This beautiful and functional building makes possible a number of important library services, utilizing a variety of new educational media, for both students and faculty. The library houses approximately 40,000 volumes, plus many other edu– cational aids such as microfilms, recordings, tapes, film strips, slides, and art prints. Along with these instructional aids the library has available tape re– cordings, projectors, record players, and other similar equipment.
10 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE The new library has a large projection room and several smaller rooms for seminars, conferences, committees, and workshops. There are six small multi-purpose listening and recording rooms where students may preview records, make tapes of speeches, or similar assignments. There is also a faculty research and study room where professional refer– ence books are available. FINE ARTS BUILDING The former library has been reconditioned to provide instructional facili– ties for classes in the fine arts such as art and music. The Music Department will continue to use Ambassador Hall for individualized music instruction and for small groups. Practice rooms are also located in Milner Hall. ALFORD MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM This structure, erected in 1853, was presented to the college by Mr. W. J. Alford in memory of his father and mother. It is the oldest building on the campus, having served originally as the assembly hall of the Reformed Pres– byterian Church of Cedarville. The interior has recently been extensively redecorated and refurbished for use as the college chapel, for dramatic produc– tions, and for artist series activities. GYMNASIUM-STUDENT CENTER Completed in 1963, this building provides excellent facilities for physical education, intramural and varsity basketball contests. The gymnasium seats over 1,200 spectators for varsity basketball contests. The student center in– cludes a snack shop, lounge, large classrooms, and cafeteria. COMMUNICATIONS BUILDING The college post office, the print shop, and radio station WCDR-FM are located in the communications building. WCDR-FM broadcasts educational programs and the Gospel Message to people within the listening range of 50 miles. Speech students gain excellent experience· and training as they handle much of the work involved in operating WCDR-FM. EXPANSION AHEAD The college Administration and the Board of Trustees are planning for the future. In late 1962, the Trustees approved the purchase of an adjacent eighty-acre farm and its buildings as one part of the expansion plan. A mas– ter development plan has been prepared to effectively utilize the enlarged campus area of over 100 acres. As money becomes available, new buildings will be added to accommodate a substantially larger enrollment.
The college atmosphere is designed for the full development of each stu– dent in his spiritual, academic, physical, and social life. The fundamental Biblical position establishes a conservative pattern for all activities and con– duct. Students gain excellent practical experience in Christian service as they participate in musical groups; teach Sunday School classes; conduct hospital, mission, and jail services; teach Bible clubs; and serve on gospel teams. Social life at Cedarville provides an outlet from the demands and pres– sures of college life. Our scenic 100-acre campus provides students with ample room to relax, study, and enjoy the fellowship of other Christian young people. As well as developing academically and spiritually, the student is helped to adjust socially by participating in one of more than a dozen student groups that are active on campus. Some of these groups sponsor banquets, concerts, and other forms of cultural enjoyment. The college Speech Department provides instruction and supervision for debate, dramatics, and other activities of special value to students entering the ministry or other areas of Christian service. The Music, Christian Education, and Biblical Education Departments also provide instruction directly related to the ministry and full-time Christian work in the program of the local church. STANDARDS OF CONDUCT Before any student is enrolled at Cedarville College, he must sign a state– ment signifying his willingness to abide by the rules and regulations of the college. Students who do not cooperate in maintaining the standards of con– duct established by the college may be requested to withdraw. This applies to conduct while at college and also at home or off the campus. Certain types of conduct are positively forbidden. Among these are the use of tobacco in any form, alcoholic beverages, the use of cards which are em– ployed in gambling, dancing, attendance at movie theaters, membership in secret societies, excessive use of cosmetics, and the wearing of extreme fashions. Rules regarding these will be strictly enforced. Students are urged to set aside a definite period each day for private devo– tions. Regular attendance at student prayer meetings aids the student in main– taining a healthful spiritual life. All students are required to attend church services regularly.
12 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE NEW STUDENT WEEK In order to give new students an opportunity to adjust to their new surroundings, the college sets aside a period at the beginning of the autumn quarter for a reception and registration. During these days, the new students become acquainted with the campus and the facilities provided for their in– struction and welfare. Selected upperclassmen and members of the faculty greet and assist them in adapting to student life. During this period, tests in English proficiency, mental maturity, and vocational interests are given to all new students. These tests must be taken before a new student can complete registration. CHAPEL The students and faculty meet together each day for worship and fellowship in a chapel service. Every student is required to attend. Faculty members, visiting pastors, educators, evangelists, and missionaries serve as speakers for these programs. Praise, prayer, worship, and practical Christian work are stressed. CHRISTIAN SERVICE Every student is encouraged to participate in some area of Christian service for at least two of the four years of the college program. It is the belief of the college administration and faculty that this experience provides a vital means of achieving the stated objectives of the purpose of the college. There are opportunities for experience and service in local church ministry, in homes for orphans, the indigent and the infirm, penal institutions, cor– respondence with missionary personnel, open air meetings, children's meet– ings in private homes, and religious surveys. The Christian Service Committee is made up of faculty members and students. It establishes policies and supervises the implementation of the pro– gram. DEVOTIONAL In addition to private devotions and weekly dormitory prayer meetings, half-hour mission prayer meetings are conducted each morning before the beginning of classes. Two days are designated each year as days of prayer. A series of Bible lecnires or a missionary conference is scheduled each quarter.
STUDENT LIFE 13 DRAMATICS Each year the students, under the direction of a member of the speech department, present major play productions. These are an important part of the college's program of personality and cultural development. Those who participate in these productions earn points toward and become eligible for election to the college's thespian society, Sock 'N' Buskin. MUSICAL ORGANIZATIONS Students with musical talents have many opportunmes to part1c1pate in college musical programs, gospel teams, College Choir, Choralaires, Men's Chorus, Marching and Concert Bands, and vocal and instrumental ensembles. A pep band performs at athletic contests. SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ACTIVITIES A variety of social events under the direction of the Student Affairs Com– mittee provide wholesome fellowship for the students. Semi-formal dinners, parties, talent programs, and various types of concerts and cultural programs are provided. STUDENT PUBLICATIONS Students have the primary responsibility for the publication of the college year book, The Miracle, and the college newspaper, Whispering Cedars. A faculty-student committee provides direction and advice. Students interested in staff positions may apply to the editors. STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is the representative assembly of the student body. Its officers are elected annually by the student body. The Council, in addition to its officers, includes two representatives from each class, one representative from each official campus organization, and a faculty advisor. The purpose of the Student Council is to assist in providing a well-rounded program of extracurricular activities which will help to develop the physical, mental, social, and spiritual life of the students, to inspire loyalty to the school and the principles for which it stands, to promote an efficient and harmonious school life, and to recommend to the proper authorities any action which it deems wise for the welfare of the student as an individual or for the student body as a whole. Election to the Student Council is one of the highest honors which can be achieved by a college student. The Student Council is respon– sible for the supervision of the student body project, the student missionary -project, and an occasional chapel program.

USE OF CARS Studies have demonstrated that there is a close correlation between low grades and the possession and use of a car by college students. Therefore, all unnecessary use of cars is discouraged. Freshmen will not be permitted to use or bring a motor vehicle with them to college during their first quarter at Cedarville. They may have and use a motor vehicle during the second quarter if they achieve a 2.50 or better grade point average at the end of the first quarter, or during the third quarter if they have a 2.25 cumulative average at the end of the second quarter. Sophomores with less than a 2.00 cumulative average will not be able to have or use a motor vehicle at Cedarville.

Since financial need is one of the factors considered in awarding aid, each single student desiring financial aid in the form of a scholarship or loan, underwritten by the college, must submit a Parent's Confidential State– ment through the College Scholarships Service or a Family Financial State– ment through the Financial Aid Services of The American College Testing Program, Inc. These forms may be secured from a high school guidance counselor or the Student Personnel of!ice. Students anticipating financial need should have these forms completed by their parents at least six months prior to the time that they will need to secure aid funds. Application for any aid must be made well in advance of the anticipated need. All requests for student aid are handled by the Dean of Students. SCHOLARSHIPS Academic scholarships are available to students who have demonstrated academic ability and a definite financial need. These scholarships are for
24 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE varying amounts and also provide an opportunity of employment with the college. The scholarships are awarded on a quarter basis with a minimum of a 3.0 academic average required for renewal. Christian character, service, and co– operation are also considered in awarding these scholarships. Athletic grants-in-aid are available for qualified athletes. Inquiries should be addressed to the Athletic Director. STUDENT EMPLOYMENT Although not able to guarantee employment, Cedarville College assists needy students by recommending them for part-time employment, both on the campus and in surrounding communities. The college has students employed in various part-time jobs on campus. These opportunities include work such as secretaries, library assistants, campus maintenance, cafeteria assistants, laboratory assistants, and printshop assistants. Employment also has been secured in the surrounding area in retail stores, factories, offices, on farms, and work for private individuals. Part-time work is important not only for financial assistance but also for providing practical job training for the student. The experience gained from these jobs is useful when the student leaves the college to apply for full-time employment. Although part-time student employment is not restricted to upperclassmen, freshmen should work only in the case of necessity. At least the first quarter of the freshman year should be devoted to study and to adjustment to college life. Students who must work more than 20 hours a week should not plan to carry a full load of classroom work. DEFERRED PAYMENT OF EDUCATfON COSTS This plan enables students and parents to pay education expenses rn monthly installments. Low cost deferred payment programs are available through nationwide organizations specializing in education financing. All plans include insurance on the life of the parent and the student, total and permanent disability insurance on the parent, plus trust admin– istration in event of the parents' death or disability. Agreements may be written to cover all costs payable to the school over a four-year period in amounts up to $14,000. Parents desiring further information concerning these deferred payment plans should write the Business Office, Education Funds, Inc., 10 Dorrance Street, Providence, Rhode Island 02901, or Funds for Education, Inc., 319 Lincoln Street, Manchester, New Hampshire 03103.
ADMISSION AND FINANCES 25 STUDENT LOANS Loans are available to Cedarville College students through the United Student Aid Funds, Inc. Students who are residents of the state of Ohio may secure loans through the Ohio Student Loan program. Many students who are residents of Pennsylvania have obtained loans through the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency. All of these loan programs are ar– ranged through local banks for specified interest rates and are repayable after graduation. Several other state loan programs also honor applications from Cedarville College students. There are specialized loan funds available to students who meet the proper qualifications such as the McChesney Memorial Loan Fund for residents of Greene County, Ohio, the Bancroft Loan Fund for missionary candidates, the Polly Leunk Memorial Fund, and the JEC Memorial Fund. A very limited amount of money is available to students with special needs through the college Student Aid Fund. Other education loan programs may be available through local banks or specific organizations. High school guidance counselors can give you infor– mation concerning these. Farm children can arrange educational loans through their local Production Credit Association office. Cedarville College does not as yet participate in any type of student aid program underwritten by the federal government. Recent listing of the college in the Directory of Higher Education published by the United States Department of Education now makes available the payment of interest by the federal government on loans secured through local banks under the various state or private loan programs. The Student Personnel office can supply information concerning the above loans as to banks servicing these loans and specialized qualifications. STUDENT INSURANCE Unmarried, full-time students are required to carry hospitalization and accident insurance through the college. Married students may waive this insurance if they have other coverage. Coverage is also available for married students' families. This insurance is twelve-month coverage and provides benefits for any accident or hospitalization not covered by employees' state compensation. The insurance premium is. considered as a portion of the student health service fee. Part-time students or married students not participating in the insurance program must pay a special health service fee if they wish to use the college health services.
The Cedarville College program is designed to meet the educational, moral, physical, social, and spiritual needs of young people who desire to honor God with their lives. The total program represents a balance between the knowl– edge gained through the courses studied, the co-curricular activities, and wor– ship in the regular chapel and church services. In such a setting spiritual truths from Scripture are integrated with the knowledge taught in each course to provide effective learning and enduring life values. The knowledge and skills learned from the courses give the student an excellent background for professional competence in his chosen field. REGISTRATION The official dates of registration for each session are listed in the college calendar. Pre-registration periods may be designated for students in residence. Registration consists of the following procedures: 1. Arrangement of Schedule. Although each student has an academic counselor to help with scheduling, the student is entirely responsible for his course of study. 2. Approval of Schedule. Each student must have his schedule approved by his academic counselor. 3. Payment of Fees. The fee schedule must be approved by the Business Office before registration is considered complete. Students are urged to register on the days provided. Nominal charges must be made for late registration. Changes in the program caused by cancellation of courses will not involve financial penalty. SESSIONS AND CREDITS The regular college year consists of three quarters of eleven weeks each, extending from October to June. Credits are earned in terms of quarter hours. A quarter credit hour is one fifty-minute period a week for one quarter. As an illustration; a student completing the work required in fifteen such periods a week for one quarter receives credit for fifteen quarter hours. Exceptions to this are laboratory sessions, applied music, and physical education.
28 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS Regular students are those who have met the requirements for admission. Regular standing implies that the student is enrolled in a degree program and is carrying at least twelve quarter hours of credit. Special students are those who have met most of the requirements for admission but are not enrolled in a degree program. A student desiring to achieve regular standing will meet the admission requirements and must have the approval of the Academic Dean and of the student's academic counselor. Part-time students are those who have met all admission requirements and are enrolled in a degree program but are carrying less than twelve quarter hours credit. ASSIGNMENT TO CLASSES Official class membership is determined according to the following sched– ule: Class Freshmen Sophomores Juniors Seniors Quarter hours completed and passed less than 45 45 to 89 90 to 134 135 and more (Converting semester hours to quarter hours is done by multiplying the number of semester hours times three halves. Example: 30 X 3/2 = 45) ACADEMIC COUNSELING Each student is assigned to an academic counselor according to his major field of specialization or interest. The student should consult with his coun– selor not only at registration time but also throughout the year whenever he has an academic problem or is formulating plans for changes of educational programs or procedures. A student with low grades in a major or minor field may be advised to select another field of concentration. ACADEMIC LOAD A total of 186 quarter hours is required for graduation. Students should carry fifteen or sixteen credit hours each quarter if they wish to graduate upon completion of the twelfth quarter. Fifteen or sixteen hours each quarter is considered the normal academic load (also applicable for the Selective Service System), although the student is allowed to take eighteen hours with– out special permission from the Academic Dean. Students working more than twenty hours per week are not advised to carry the full course of studies.
ACADEMIC INFORMATION 29 The student's academic load is subject to reduction or limitation by the Academic Dean for poor scholarship or excessive work outside of school hours. ADDING AND WITHDRAWING FROM COURSES In order to add or drop courses, the student must complete a form pro– vided by the Registrar's office. The form is to be initialed by both the course instructor and the student's academic counselor. The student will be required to make up any work he has missed due to late entrance. No courses may be added after the end of the first full calendar week. If the student drops a course, the Registrar's office records the action as follows: Week Course is Dropped Before the end of first full calendar week Second full calendar week Action No record on transcript "W" (Withdrawn) through fourth Fifth through sixth C:~~~ or "WF" (Withdrawn After sixth a sing-Withdrawn Failing) "WF" The above course changes are not complete until the Registrar's office receives the completed course change sheet. The effective date of the course change is the date the completed form is returned to the Registrar's office. Refund information is listed on pages 22 and 23. WITHDRAWAL FROM COLLEGE No student should leave Cedarville College without following proper withdrawal procedures. In withdrawing, a student must secure an official withdrawal form from the Registrar's office and return it signed by all the college personnel listed on it. He should give the Business office at least two days' notice of his intentions to withdraw if he expects to have any money refunded before he leaves.

Transcripts of withdrawn students will be marked as follows: Withdrawal through the fourth week-"W" Withdrawal after the fourth week-"WP" or "WF" The ID card must be turned in to the Registrar's office on the student's last day on campus.
30 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE CLASS ATTENDANCE The objectives of class attendance generally include the development of personal motivation for appropriate attendance and the exposure of students to different attendance procedures. In general it is to be noted that regular attendance is necessary for the student to receive full benefit from his college experience. Since there are several different ways in which ideal class attendance may be achieved, offidal faculty policy allows each faculty member to determine and develop attendance standards which will meet the particular needs of his own class. THE GRADING SYSTEM Grades are issued at the end of each quarter. However, first quarter fresh– men receive mid-term academic warnings if their grades are "D" or "F". It is the responsibility of each student to discuss his academic achievement with his instructor. Grades received in courses indicate to the student the fields for which he has the greatest aptitude. A student with low grades in a major or minor field is advised to select another field of concentration. A-This grade is given in recognition of outstanding achievement. It is indicative of superior work in quality and reveals a thorough mastery of the subject matter. The student receiving this grade should demonstrate enough interest to do some independent in– vestigation beyond the actual course requirements. B-This grade indicates work and achievement that is well above average. The student receiving this grade should be capable of doing advanced work in this field. The quality of the work should be con– sidered better than that achieved by the average student. C-This is an average grade and is indicative of a satisfactory meeting of requirements. D-This grade reveals accomplishment that is inferior in quality and/or quantity and is generally unsatisfactory from the standpoint of course requirements. This is the lowest grade for which credit can be given. F-This is a failing grade. It indicates very unsatisfactory work, and the course must be repeated for credit. P-This is a grade given students who demonstrate proficiency in a course as the result of examination through the testing out proce– dure. Inc-The mark "Incomplete" is given when a student has done satis– factory work in a class but has been unable to complete all the re-
