The University of Lethbridge is a non-denominational, co-educational provincial university established January 1, 1967, within the Universities Act of the Province of Alberta. It came into being with the transfer to university status of the "University Section" of what was then the Lethbridge Junior College, which for the previous decade had offered introductory courses and latterly senior courses for university credit. In addition to the traditional function of teaching, research and public service, The University ot Leth-bridge is committed to the attempt to achieve distinction by developing programs and curricula that are consistent with the following statement of basic values or philosophy: The University of Lethbridge endeavours to cultivate humane values; it seeks to foster intellectual growth, social development, aesthetic sensitivity, personal ethics and physical well-being; it seeks to cultivate the transcendental dimension of the scholar's personality. Flexibility and openness to innovation will be the distinguishing feature of The University of Lethbridge. Notwithstanding its intention to offer diverse subject matter contributing to the acquisition of professional skills, the University regards learning as an end in itse/f, not merely as a means to material ends. Its primary aims are to foster the spirit of free enquiry and the critical interpretation of ideas. The undergraduate is, and should remain, the focus of the University's endeavour. Students are invited to participate in all phases of university life. The highest degree of interaction between students and faculty is encouraged, and should not be con-fined to the physical limits of the campus. It is desirable and necessary that the University should relate closely to the local community. Nevertheless, its outlook should not be determined by any regional or sectional interest. Through exposures to cosmopolitan influences and diverse cultures, the scholar is best able to evaluate his own social and cultural milieu. The University asserts its right and responsibility for free expression and communi-cation of ideas. It is self-evident that a university cannot function without complete autonomy in this domain. The first regular academic operation undertaken by the new university was its 1967 Summer Session, which began in July, 1967, with 135 students in attendance. That fall, the University inaugurated under-graduate degree programs in the Faculty of Arts and Science, and in the Faculty of Education. The Fall Semester was attended by 638 students, an enrolment that has steadily increased to 1300 in the 1972 Spring Semester, with more than 500 persons registered on a part-time basis, on-campus and at 14 centres in southern Alberta. At its first Convocation in May, 1968. the University conferred baccalaureate degrees upon 38 students, 71 were granted degrees at the 1969 Convocation, 181 in 1970, and 335 in 1971. The University is now residing on its new, West Lethbridge Campus, which offers many innovative and functional architectural features, as designed by the internationally known Canadian architect Arthur Erickson. 4 THE STUDENT . The University of Lethbridge recognizes the individuality of the student, and his educational and social needs. Evidence of this may be seen in the following: Semester System: The fully semesterized operation allows admission in January or September, and provides maxim diversity in course selection. Student-Oriented Curricula: The University has removed from its curricula the concept of "compulsory subjects". Both faculties are pledged to meet the individual needs of each student; curricula and faculty advisors exemplify the continuing effort being made to preserve each student's individuality. Degree programs are based on general guidelines, designed to ensure adequate "major" and breadth requirements. Student-Initiated Courses: Provision is made for students to initiate courses. Through this mechanism credit courses may be designed which are relevant to contemporary issues and unusual or pertinent topics which otherwise might not be part of the structured curriculum. (Page 22) Independent Study: Independent study courses carry full degree credit, and may take a variety of forms, such as field study, laboratory research projects, library research and study at other universities, in close association with members of the faculty. (Page 21) Multidisciplinary Major: Multidisciplinary or Interdisciplinary majors allow students to concentrate on more than one subject area in meeting their degree requirements. Such alternatives allow the student to generalize or specialize as he sees fit. (Page 16) Colloquium Study: A person registered in the Colloquium develops his studies in consultation with an advisor and appropriate resource persons from the faculty or elsewhere. An experimental project, Colloquium Study is an integral part of the Faculty of Arts and Science program intended to foster self-directed learning in a multidisciplinary colloquium of students and instructors. (Page 17) Student Evaluation: The University's policy allows the instructor to determine the most suitable means of evaluating each student's performance — by examinations, by assigned papers, by continuous grading or by a combination of all these. (Page 15) Student-Faculty Ratio: This is unusually low, for western universities; it permits each student constructive contact with faculty members and minimizes the feeling of anonymity characteristic of larger campuses. THE STUDENT AS A PARTICIPANT . Perhaps the most impressive evidence of the University's concern for students and their views is to be found in the degree to which it involves them in every aspect of University governance. Students sit as full voting members on all academic and physical planning bodies, the Board of Governors, the Senate, General Faculty Council, all faculty committees and councils, and in departmental meetings. In the matter of student involvement in administering the affairs of the institution, The University of Lethbridge has set the precedents other institutions are now beginning to follow. 5 ACADEMIC CALENDAR 1972/73 1972 JULY 1 Saturday, Commencement of 1972-73 Academic year.

Note: Examination and non-examination subjects — Credit will not be granted in an examination subject and a non-examination subject in the same field except where one is a pre-requisite or co-requisite for the other (i.e. Students presenting English 30 and Eng-lish 33 will receive credit for only English 30). 2. Mature Student Applicants The University will consider applications for admission by mature persons who lack formal matriculation requirements but who can provide evidence of the ability to profit from university-level studies. Such applicants must be at least twenty-one years of age, and must comply with special admissions re-quirements, details of which may be obtained from the Office of the Registrar. Ordinarily such applications are considered only from residents of the Province of Alberta. 3. Applicants from Other Provinces An applicant from another Canadian province, who has com-pleted the senior matriculation requirements of the university or universities of that province, normally will be considered eligible for admission to The University of Lethbridge. Certificates Acceptable for University Admission British Columbia Graduation of the Academic-Technical Program. 60.0% average on appropriate 12-level subjects. (see note). Saskatchewan Division IV or Grade XII standing with a 65% average on all group 30-level subjects presented for admission. 8 REGISTRATION AND ENROLMENT Under the semester system, all students must register for each semester. Under the current system adopted by the University, the following definitions are pertinent: Registration — Enrolment — The student registers by completing a Registration Form which provides personal data such as name, address, faculty, etc., and which signifies an in-tention to enrol in a class or classes. The student enrols in specific classes (subsequent to Registration) by submitting class cards to in-structors of specific classes, recording such class data on study lists and filing study lists in the Registrar's Office. Manitoba Grade XII with completion of the appropriate 300 and 301 level subjects. Ontario Complete Grade XIII with an average of 60% on appropriate academic subjects. Quebec Senior High School Leaving Certificate (Grade XII). One year of C.E.G.E.P. with subjects appropriate for university admission. New Brunswick Grade XIII or first year university. Nova Scotia Grade XII with an overall average of 60%. Prince Edward Senior matriculation or first year at the Island University of Prince Edward Island. Newfoundland First year at Memorial University. Note: Appropriate academic subjects and a satisfactory average must be presented before admission will be granted. Students are advised to present College Entrance Examination Board Tests (C.E.E.B.), the Scholastic Aptitude Tests and three (3) Achievement Tests related to their desired major pattern. S.A.C.U. tests may be presented in lieu of equivalent College Board Tests. All of these tests should be taken while the student is enrolled at the Grade XII level. 4. International Student Applicants Applicants from outside Canada must satisfy the University that their qualifications are comparable to those of Canadian applicants, and are required to submit: a. A complete "Application for Admission Form"; b. The appropriate fee for the evaluation of their doc-uments (see FEES); c. Official transcripts of all secondary school and uni-versity- level courses taken, and/or any other relevant documents, such as General Certificate of Education, College Entrance Examination Board Aptitude and Achievement Test scores, etc. d. Proof of proficiency in the English language (if appli-cable). One acceptable proof of proficiency in the English language is a suitable score in the Test of English as a Foreign Language through the College Entrance Examination Board, Post Office Box 1025, Berkeley, California 94701, U.S.A. Examples of documentation required of non-Canadian students are listed below. Other credentials of comparable merit will be considered. Students seeking admission on the basis of documents which are in a language other than English must submit such docu-ments together with a notarized English translation. When the doc-uments do not indicate the subjects studied and the grades secured in the individual subjects in the final year, students are required to submit certified statements from authorized officials of the insti-tutions attended giving the required information. Australia and New Zealand: A student with matriculation standing from a recognized university in Australia or New Zealand will generally be admitted to The University of Lethbridge. Applicants must present: the Leaving Certificate or the Matriculation Certificate. General Certificate of Education: Applicants must complete a minimum of five subjects, at least two being at the Advanced Level with the remainder at the Ordinary Level. University of Hong Kong: The University of Hong Kong Matriculation Examination is con-sidered for the same credit as the General Certificate of Education. Note: The Chinese University of Hong Kong Matriculation Certificate is not acceptable for admission. India and Pakistan: A Bachelor's Degree in division one is the minimum requirement for admission, or G.C.E. as above. United States: Students who have graduated from high school in the United States are eligible to apply for admission. However, such applicants must submit scores in the C.E.E.B. Scholastic Aptitude Tests and in three Achievement Tests related to their desired major pattern. 5. Applicants for Advanced Credit An applicant who has successfully completed work at another university or college may be assigned credit for subjects passed which are comparable to courses offered at The University of Lethbridge and appropriate to the program elected by the applicant. Credit for courses taken by correspondence from recognized universities will be considered, but only for intro-ductory course credit. Advanced credit in the Faculty of Arts and Science will not usually be assigned for work that was completed ten or more years prior to admission. 9 REGISTRATION AND ENROLMENT IN OFF-CAMPUS COURSES Each semester the University offers classes at a number of centres away from the campus. Registration and enrolment in these classes may be done through the mail. Special registration and enrolment forms are available at the Registrar's Office for this purpose. Students who fail to complete registration or enrolment during the specified period will be assessed a late penalty fee. 1. New Students After an Application has been processed, the applicant will be advised of his eligibility for admission. If admissible, he will receive full instructions on the procedures to be fol-lowed to complete his registration and enrolment. 2. In-Course Students A student currently registered at the University will be noti-fied of the details of registration and enrolment procedures at the appropriate time. 3. Changes in Enrolment No changes other than class drops (i.e., withdrawals from individual classes) are permitted after the study list has been filed. WITHDRAWAL A student wishing to withdraw from the University normally must notify the University by submitting a completed Withdrawal Form, obtainable at the Office of the Registrar. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in the assignment of failing grades, and may impair entitlement to refund of fees. Grades are not usually assigned in the case of withdrawal during the first nine weeks of a semester. Students enrolled in Summer Session should consult the Summer Session calendar for details of the Withdrawal procedure. FEES 1.

Special students — 5. Auditors — GRADING SYSTEM The University of Lethbridge employs a letter system of grading. CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS Students are classified as follows: 1. Full-time students — those who are registered in three or more classes in a semester. (N.B. — Notwithstanding this designa-tion, a "normal" course load is five classes). 2. Part-time students — those who are registered in two or less than two courses in a semester. 3. Visiting students — those who, although registered in one or more classes, are seeking degree credit for these classes at an institution other than The University of Lethbridge. A letter of authorization will be required from the institution at which the appli-cant is seeking credit. The overall academic performance of a student is expressed in terms of the grade point average (G.P.A.) F - failing. This grade indicates a failure and is assigned to a student who does not satisfy the objectives of the course. I - incomplete. The designation of 1 is given only in cases of illness or other extenuating circumstances, beyond the control of the student, which make it impossible to complete the re-quired work by the close of a semester. The I - designation will be awarded only on application to and with the approval of both the instructor and the dean by the student or his agent; and such application will not be entertained until the last two weeks of classes. The 1 - des-ignation may be converted by the instructor to A, B, C, D, F, Cr, NC or a P grade within one year; if not so converted, it remains thereafter as an "1". 11 W - withdrawal without prejudice. A designation of W may be re-corded at any time after the first two weeks of classes, up to and including the ninth week of classes. The W designa-tion shall be assigned only upon formal application by the student or his agent to the Registrar. (W designations are dis-regarded in computing a student's grade point average.) P - pass. This designation indicates that the student has satisfac-torily completed the objectives of the course. No Grade Points are assigned for the computation of the Grade Point Average. CR - credit. This designation indicates that the student has satisfactorily completed the objectives of the course. No Grade Points are assigned for the computation of the Grade Point Average. If the objectives are not met the student is assigned no credit (NC). CREDIT/NON-CREDIT COURSES (formerly Pass-Fail) Credit/non-credit courses are offered by The University of Lethbridge to encourage students to expand their academic interests by enrolling in courses outside their fields of major interest and receiving either Credit (Cr) or Non-Credit (NC) for the course in place of the usual letter grade. A student may enroll in a maximum of two credit/non-credit courses per semester but may not enroll in, and complete successfully or otherwise, more than a total of eight for credit toward a degree. Such courses must be declared at the time of registration. Within the over-all limit of eight, Education students may enroll in a maximum of three credit/non-credit courses in Professional Education (includ-ing Education 31601. Successful completion of class requirements results in "Cr" (Credit) for the courses being recorded on the student's transcript; an "NC" (No credit) is recorded if class requirements are not fulfilled. The credit/non-credit courses are not considered in compu ting the student's grade-point-average. Substitution of "credit" by a normal letter grade is permitted until thirty days after grades have been mailed, if requested by the student. In such cases, the letter grade is included in the student's grade-point-average computation. Replacing a "credit" with a letter grade in any credit/non-credit course, does not enable the student to enroll in, and complete successfully or otherwise, any more than a maximum of eight such courses. A student may not enroll in credit/non-credit courses in his major, nor in required courses in Education (i.e. required foundation courses, professional semester courses, three introductory behavioural sciences). Transfer students and students pursuing a second degree, may enroll in credit/non-credit courses on a proportional basis. 24, 12 FACULTY OF ARTS & SCIENCE Dean — F.Q. Quo Associate Deans — L.G. Hepler — P. Butterfield Coordinator, Continuing Education — M. BoIdt The University offers instruction in the Arts and the Sciences leading to the degree Bachelor of Arts and Science (B.A.). A full-time student carrying the normal academic load of five courses per semester may complete the degree in eight semesters. However it is possible for a student to attain the degree in fewer than four academic years by carrying a heavy study load, by attending Sum-mer Sessions, or by undertaking independent study during the intervals between semesters. The objective of the Faculty of Arts and Science is to provide liberal education, stressing the cultivation of critical and analytical attitudes, the recognition of facts and their relationships, the com-prehension of abstract thought, and the structure of ideas. The curriculum is designed to permit the student to establish a broad foundation of general studies during the first four semesters. Sub-sequently he may either continue in general studies or concentrate upon a disciplinary or multidisciplinary study in depth. The flexibility of the semester system and the dearth of academic regulations permit students, within the limitations of the Univer-sity's resources, to follow to a large extent their own interests and inclinations in the selection of courses and areas of study. With guidance from faculty, students may elect independent study, may initiate courses of instruction in topics of special interest, and may design degree programs particularly oriented toward their own needs. Colloquium Study is available on a limited scale for students who wish to develop experimental programs of study outside of the regular curriculum. The student has the option to enroll in a limited number of pass-or-fail courses in order to encourage his exploration of subjects in areas other than his principal interest without effect on his general academic standing. Each introductory course is designed to emphasize the main con-cepts of the discipline, both historical and contemporary, rather than to provide a comprehensive survey of the subject. Hence its value is most effectively realized if followed by a sequel or sequels in the same subject, each intended to develop in depth one or more of the principal concepts of the introductory course. ACADEMIC REGULATIONS Grading System The grading system of the Faculty of Arts and Science is described in the Admission Section of the Calendar. Academic Standards For graduation, a student must attain a minimum cumulative grade-point-average of 2.00 on courses taken at The University of Lethbridge for credit toward the degree. No exceptions are per-mitted. Courses from another institution accredited to a transfer student are not included in calculation of the grade-point-average. In order to retain satisfactory academic standing, a student must maintain a grade-point-average of 2.00 or above at all stages in his progress toward a degree. If the grade-point-average falls below this level, the student is placed on probation, or may be required to withdraw from the University. A student dismissed for academic reasons after one semester may apply for re-admission after a lapse of one semester. An application for re-admission must include evidence that the causes of previous unsatisfactory work have been identified and removed. If a student is re-admitted, the courses taken during the unsuccessful semester are not accredited, nor are they included in calculation of the grade-point-average. A student dismissed for academic reasons after two or more semes-ters may apply for re-admission after a lapse of one full year. If he is re-admitted, the courses taken during the unsuccessful semesters are not included in calculation of the grade-point-average, but limited credit may be assigned. Distinction and Great Distinction Degrees with Distinction or Great Distinction are conferred upon students who have displayed consistently outstanding academic performances during their undergraduate education. Advanced Placement It frequently occurs that a student has had some educational ex-perience that provides much of the background usually acquired in an introductory course. In such a case, the student may seek the permission of the department to enroll in advanced courses. Challenging for Credit If the student's knowledge and experience are adequate, it is possible for him to challenge for academic credit. He may receive credit for any course at or above the 1000 level if he meets satis-factorily the conditions set by the department for the course in question. No grade is assigned for a course accredited in this way. Assessment of Student Performance Within the policies of the Council of the Faculty of Arts and Sci-ence, an instructor bears full responsibility for the evaluation of the academic performance of his students. An instructor is obliged to indicate to his students at the begin-ning of each course the detailed manner by which their work will be evaluated and their final grades derived, and, upon request, to communicate to a student an estimation of his level of perform-ance by the end of the eighth week of the semester. An instructor may prescribe a variety of forms of evaluation, such as recitations, papers and other works, mid-term examinations, and a final examination. If a final examination is prescribed, it is ad-ministered during the examination period indicated in the Calendar of the University. Final examinations are limited to a maximum of three hours. No testing outside of the procedures of normal class meeting is initiated during the last two weeks of the regular class schedule. Appeal of Grade A student dissatisfied with an assigned grade may request that the instructor review the grade. If after this review the student is still dissatisfied, he may address a written appeal to the department concerned. Either the student or the instructor then may appeal the department's decision to the Faculty of Arts and Science, and finally to the General Faculties Council. The initial appeal to the instructor must be made not later than thirty days after grade reports are mailed from the office of the Registrar. 15 CURRICULUM FOR THE DEGREE B.A. Total Curriculum In order to qualify for the degree B.A., a student must complete successfully a total of forty semester courses. A semester course is defined as a course in a subject studied for one semester. The nor-mal full student load is five courses per semester. Major The student must select, preferably on or before commencing the third semester, a subject (disciplinary major) or combination of subjects (multidisciplinary major) for study in depth, designated as a major. For a disciplinary major, the total of forty semester courses must include at least ten semester courses in the subject. A multidisciplinary major must include depth of study equivalent at least to the minimum for a disciplinary major. Breadth of Study A student electing a disciplinary major must complete successfully at least twenty semester courses in subjects other than the major. A curriculum with a multidisciplinary major must include breadth of study equivalent at least to the minimum for a disciplinary major. No more than thirty semester courses from the disciplines offered by any single department may be taken for credit toward the de-gree. A student contemplating graduate studies should consult the Chairman of the pertinent department about Graduate School requirements as soon as possible. Introductory Courses No more than ten courses from the series 100-990 and 1000-1990 may be offered for credit toward the degree. In a system of such courses in which one is a prerequisite or recommended background for the next, for 'the purpose of this limitation only the first com-pleted at The University of Lethbridge is counted as an intro-ductory course. Residence Requirement A student with transfer credit who is proceeding toward the B.A. as a first degree must complete successfully at The University of Lethbridge at least twenty semester courses (equivalent to the normal full load for four academic semesters), including the final ten semester courses offered for credit toward the degree. A student proceeding toward the B.A. as a second degree must complete successfully at The University of Lethbridge the final ten semester courses (equivalent to the normal full load for two semes-ters) offered for credit toward the degree. Transfer students and students planning to study for the B.A. as a second degree must have the total program of studies approved in advance by the Faculty of Arts and Science. MAJORS IN ARTS AND SCIENCE Disciplinary Majors The Faculty of Arts and Science is composed of a number of de-partments, each of which offers instruction in depth in one or more disciplines, and some of which offer instruction to a lesser extent in supplementary subjects. For 1971-72, majors are offered in: Anthropology History Art Mathematics Biological Sciences Music Chemistry Philosophy Dramatic Arts Physical Education Economics Physics English Political Science French Psychology Geography Sociology and supplementary courses of instruction in: Astronomy Logic Botany Meteorology Computing Science Russian Geology Spanish German Statistics Linguistics Zoology. Note: Because the Faculty of Arts and Science specifies but few curricular regulations to guide the student, it is essential that he consult the department or departments of his major discipline not only on the nature and structure of the major, but on such matters as the prerequisite system, the availability of independent study and the future scheduling of courses. Failure to obtain advice when planning curriculum and selecting courses may prevent the student from being able to take the courses he desires in later semesters, particularly those from departments that may on occasion be forced to curtail enrolment because of limited instructional resources. Multidisciplinary Majors A student may fulfill the curricular requirement for study in depth by electing a multidisciplinary major. The initiative for the devel-opment of such a program lies primarily with the student. How-ever it must be authorized by the Faculty of Arts and Science in accordance with the procedure for any individual curriculum. The proposed multidisciplinary curriculum, formulated by the stu-dent in consultation with one or more instructors, must be sub-mitted to the Dean of Arts and Science at least three semesters (fifteen semester courses) prior to the expected date of qualifica-tion for the degree. The proposal is examined by a review com-mittee appointed by the Dean which may approve it, reject if for stated reasons, or suggest modifications. With approval of the com-mittee, it is referred to the Council of the Faculty of Arts and Science for final ratification. The two principal criteria that are considered in the evaluation of a multidisciplinary major are that it represent a recognizable and significant body of knowledge, and that it represent an analysis in depth, rather than a superficial survey of a broad topic. Aside from perhaps one or two seminar courses in specialized topics and such independent study as may be arranged, the program is expected to be derived entirely from the existing curriculum of the Faculty of Arts and Science. Multidisciplinary majors of great variety are possible within the resources of the Faculty of Arts and Science. They may consist of combinations of two disciplines, either in a single department, such as Modern Languages, or from two departments, such as Art and Literature; they may relate elements of three or more disciplines, for example Earth Sciences or Religious Studies; they may focus upon periods of time such as the Renaissance, or upon regional areas such as Latin America; they may pertain to topical studies such as Northern Studies. 16 Since multidisciplinary majors are individual student-initiated pro-grams, there are no standard curricula. However for illustrative purposes, brief descriptions are set forth of three multidisciplinary majors that have proved to be popular. These three regularized Multidisciplinary Majors of Earth Sciences, Psychobiology, and Urban and Regional Studies may be approved by the Executive Committee of the Faculty of Arts and Science Council upon the recommendation of the Dean. Earth Sciences The multidisciplinary major in Earth Sciences is intended to provide the individual student with an area of study in the physical sciences that lies between the subject material al-ready offered in Physical Geography and Physics,and with a quantitative study of the earth and space environments. Depending upon his particular interest within the Earth Sci-ences, a student may incorporate courses in Chemistry, Geography, Mathematics, Physics and the Biological Sciences into the major. He may also arrange through the appro-priate departments for independent study courses in the Earth Sciences. Urban and Regional Studies The multidisciplinary major in Urban and Regional Studies combines the techniques, findings and theories of social scientists who investigate urban and regional phenomena. Students should select courses to ensure an adequate rep-resentation from at least three of the four major disciplines involved; Economics, Geography, Political Science, and Soc-iology. In addition, the student should include at least two courses in techniques for studying urban and regional areas. Psychobiology Psychobiology combines the techniques, findings and the-ories of biologists and psychologists who share a common interest in behavior. The program is sponsored jointly by the Departments of Biological Sciences and Psychology, whose instructors are prepared to advise interested students about appropriate course selections. Note: General information on multidisciplinary majors is available from the office of the Dean, and specific details on any particular major may be obtained from departments in related fields or from in-structors interested in the topic. B.A. AS A SECOND DEGREE The Faculty of Arts and Science does not admit to the degree program an applicant who possesses either the degree B.A. or B.Sc. in the Arts or Sciences from a recognized institution. However, such an applicant may be admitted as a special student in order to pursue studies of interest. An applicant possessing an undergraduate degree from a profession-al faculty is admissible to the degree program. Depending upon their applicability to the curriculum in Arts and Science and the standard of performance achieved in them, some of the courses taken for the professional degree may be credited toward the B.A. A student who possesses the degree B.Ed. through completion of a program taken in its entirety at The University of Lethbridge is eligible for the degree B.A. after having completed ten additional semester courses in the Faculty of Arts and Science. Others who possess the degree B.Ed. are eligible for the degree B.A. after having completed a minimum of twelve additional semester courses in the Faculty of Arts and Science. A student planning to study for the degree B.A. as a second degree must have the total program approved in advance by the Faculty of Arts and Science. SPECIAL CURRICULA FOR THE DEGREE B.A. Individual Programs The curriculum for the degree B.A. is designed to accommodate most students. However a student who wishes for sound education-al reasons to deviate from its requirements may petition the Faculty of Arts and Science. The petition must be submitted to the Dean of Arts and Science at least three semesters (fifteen semester courses) prior to the expected date of qualification for the degree. The petition is assessed by a review committee appointed by the Dean before presentation to the Faculty Council for possible ratification. Colloquium Study In an attempt to accommodate a variety of students by providing alternative approaches to the educational process, the Faculty of Arts and Science has adopted Colloquium Study as an experimenting program. As an integral component of the program of the Faculty, Colloquium Study is intended to foster self-directed learning in students with the aid of faculty resource people. Arrangements for Colloquium are generated by an Advisory Committee consisting of the Co-ordinator of Colloquium Study (Chairman), the Dean of the Faculty, three faculty members from Arts and Science, and four students registered in Colloquium. The Advisory Committee is responsible for the development of Colloquium and for the admission of students. A student in Colloquium must be registered in the Faculty of Arts and Science. A student registered in Colloquium develops his studies in consultation with appropriate resource persons from the Faculty or elsewhere. He has access to all facilities and resources of the University, including attendance in classes or laboratories upon consent of the instructors concerned. The accomplishments of a student are subject to periodic review, and satisfactory progress is dependent upon continued evaluation and participation in Colloquium. If a student is advised to or decides to transfer out of Colloquium into the regular curriculum of the Faculty of Arts and Science, the Advisory Committee and appropriate resource persons have the responsibility for the evaluation of his work in Colloquium and accreditation for it in the regular curriculum. In order to qualify for a degree, the student makes formal application to the Advisory Committee, which then establishes a committee for the final evaluation, depending upon the nature of the candidate's studies. The Degree Evaluation Committee consists of the Co-ordinator plus two members of the Advisory Committee (at least one a student), a maximum of two resource persons the student has utilized selected by the Advisory Committee, two persons appointed by the Executive of Arts and Science Council, and either the Dean or his designate. The results of the evaluation and an appropriate recommendation are forwarded from the Advisory Committee to the Arts and Science Council. The procedure for admission includes the submission of an application and a personal interview with the Advisory Committee. Further information on Colloquium Study and the procedures for admission may be obtained from the Co-ordinator of Colloquium Study. 17 FIVE-YEAR B.A. — B.Ed. PROGRAM The five-year program of teacher education at The University of Lethbridge consists of three initial years of study in the Faculty of Arts and Science and two final years in the Faculty of Education, during which professional education requirements are fulfilled and further depth in Arts and Science courses may be acquired. Upon successful completion of the program, the student receives the degree B.A. from the Faculty of Arts and Science and the degree B.Ed. from the Faculty of Education. The curriculum for the five-year B.A. — B.Ed. program is as follows: Courses in Semesters Faculty of Registration Arts and Science Courses in Education Total one to six Arts and Science 30 30 Semesters seven and eight Education 4 6 10 Semesters nine and ten Education 1 9 10 Total 35 (a) 15 (b) 50 Note: (a) These courses must be chosen to include a major in Arts and Science. (b) Five of these courses must be approved in advance by the Faculty of Arts and Science. BACHELOR OF FINE ARTS (B.F.A.) — Consult Art Department BACHELOR OF MUSIC (B.Mus.) — Consult Music Department PRE-PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS Pre-Education Candidates for admission to the four-year program of the Faculty of Education of The Univer-sity of Lethbridge must first complete successfully a minimum of twenty semester courses in Arts and Science. A student registered in the Faculty of Arts and Science who is preparing to enter the Faculty of Education is designated as a Pre-Education student. Care must be exercised to insure that the Pre-Education program include the courses necessary for subsequent admission to the Faculty of Education. Detailed specifications may be found in the section of the Calendar describing the Faculty of Education. Other Pre-Professional Programs Through arrangements between The University of Lethbridge and professional faculties at other universities, it is possible for students who enroll in the Faculty of Arts and Science to select programs of study that will qualify them for admission to the professional faculties with ad-vanced standing. Students should note, however, that completion of the specified pre-professional curriculum does not guarantee admission to a professional faculty. Overall academic perform-ance is an important factor. 18 Most of the pre-professional programs have more specialized admission requirements than does the B.A. program of the Faculty of Arts and Science. A student without the necessary high school prerequisites for a particular pre-professional program may be admissible to The Univer-sity of Lethbridge but then may require one or more extra semesters to complete the pre-professional studies. A student who has questions regarding a pre-professional transfer program should consult the Dean of Arts and Science, and is encouraged to communicate directly with the professional faculty at the university where he intends to complete his studies. The following table summarizes the various pre-professional programs arranged by the Faculty of Arts and Science, with recommended sets of admission subjects: *Recommended Admission Pre-Professional Years offered at Subjects: Transfer University of University of Five or More Matriculation Program Transfer Lethbridge Subjects, Including: Agriculture Alberta One Biology 30 Chemistry 30 English 30 Mathematics 30 Business (B.

Intro-ductory courses in Sociology and Psychology are highly re-commended for those students who lack basic preparation in these subjects. 3) The one-year diploma programs in Public Health Nursing and Teaching and Supervision were discontinued in 1970-71 and replaced by a revised degree program for Registered Nurses. Those who completed the Diploma programs in Teaching and Superyision or Public Health Nursing by 1970 will be given until September 1973 to complete requirements for the degree under the former degree program for Registered Nurses. PHARMACY First Year Biology 1000 and 2000 Chemistry 1000 and 2000 Chemistry 2100 and 2200 English 1000 and one other English course Two semester courses in Physics.

Limitation of Enrolment The Faculty of Arts and Science reserves the right to limit enrolment in any course in order to maintain the quality of instruction. The limitation is imposed only when the teaching resources, in terms either of instructors or physical space, become exhausted. In such circumstances, priority for the enrolment of students who possess the specified prerequisites is proposed as fol lows: For 2000 level courses preference is given to majors with second year standing and then to other students with second year standing; for 3000 level courses preference is given to majors with third year standing and then to other students with third year standing, and for 4000 level courses, to majors with fourth year standing and then to other students with fourth year standing. The year of standing through previous successful completion of a specified number of semester courses is as follows: Second year — 8 to 17 Third year — 18 to 27 Fourth year — 28 or more Exceptions to the above procedure for legitimate reasons will be dealt with through consultation between the Dean and the Department concerned (e.g. the curricular needs of pre-professional students or students desiring to enrol in courses offered in alternate years). Course Numbers Series 100 - 990 Series 1000 - 1990 Series 2000 - 2990 Series 3000 - 3990 Elementary courses. Introductory courses usually taken during the first or second semesters. The basic course in each subject bears the number 1000. Intermediate courses usually taken by students in the second, third and fourth semesters. Intermediate courses usually taken during the fifth and sixth semesters. Series 4000 - 4990 Senior undergraduate courses usually taken during the final two semesters. Numbers 2990, These signify Independent Study in the 3990, 4990 various disciplines. (A full description of Independent Study Courses is provided below.) n denotes number of hours per week of lecture or other formal instruction; n 1 denotes laboratory hours per week. For example, (3-0) means three lecture hours per week, no laboratory; (1-4) means one lec-ture hour and four laboratory hours per week. Will be offered in Fall Semester. Will be offered in Spring Semester. Will be offered in both semesters. May be offered in either semester. Course extends through both semesters. 1973-74 Will not be offered in 1972-73 but will be in 1973-74 Will be offered in alternate years; if offered in 1972- 73, will not be offered in 1973-74, and vice versa. Prerequisites and Recommended Backgrounds Some courses require an appropriate background of knowledge as indicated by the prerequisites for admission. A student lacking the prerequisite to a particular course may however be admitted to it by permission of the department offering the course. For some courses, recommended backgrounds are listed instead of prerequisites, so that the student may judge his own admissibility. Both prerequisites and recommended backgrounds are expressed in terms of Alberta matriculation subjects or of courses offered by The University of Lethbridge. With permission of the department, either courses from other ed-ucational systems or equivalent academic experience may be sub-stituted for the stipulated prerequisites. Independent Study Courses A student in Arts and Science may take courses through independ-ent study, which are designated by the numbers 2990, 3990 and 4990 in a particular discipline, indicating the level of advancement of the work. Independent study may be elected as early as the second semester or as late as the last, depending upon the capability of the student for undertaking academic work with a minimum of guidance. In-dependent study may take a variety of forms including library re-search, laboratory research projects, field study, and authorized study at another university. Each department provides detailed information on its available re-sources for support of independent study which a student should obtain as soon as he has selected his major area of study. Admission to an independent study course is achieved through consent of the instructor who agrees to guide the study. Enrolment in such a course may be for a regular semester or for a period during the summer between regular semesters. Credit for a course in inde-pendent study is at the discretion of the department or depart-ments of the major subject, and upon recommendation of the in-structor. Symbols (n-n 1 ) F-S F or S F/S 21 Courses Initiated by Students The Faculty of Arts and Science provides the opportunity for stu-dents to initiate courses. Through this mechanism, contemporary issues or unusual topics may be introduced that ordinarily receive little consideration in the regular curriculum. The development of such courses requires close co-operation of students and faculty members during the detailed investigations of topics of interest. When a proposed course has received sufficient attention through discussions among students and members of the faculty, an outline must be submitted to the Curriculum Committee of the Arts and Science Council. The proposal is expected to define the topic, to indicate the academic rationale, to provide a detailed syllabus and to specify sources of reference materials. Upon approval by the Committee, the course is included in the University timetable for the following semester. A student is permitted to enroll in one student-initiated course in each semester other than his first semester. The description of a student-initiated course is of the form: UNIVERSITY 3000 Human Survival I S 1972 This course is designed as a multidisciplinary study of the problems of human survival. Students are expected to carry on an individual study on a topic under the unifying theme of human survival, and to participate regularly in the class discussions designed to integrate the individual studies. Admission is by consultation with the initiating group. (Limited to students in the second or later semesters.) ANTH ROPOLOGY Assistant Professors P.W. Lomas T.A. Moore K.W.J. Parry Any ten semester courses in Anthropology constitute a minimum major. Students who elect to major in Anthropology or Sociology are advised to take courses in both. A variety of areas are treated in the department including courses in Archaeology. Anthropology 1000 is the minimum prerequisite for all other courses offered by the department. Since the first digit in the course numbers represents the level of intellectual progression, majors in their first or second year of study should normally enroll in courses at the 1000 and 2000 level, while majors in their third or fourth year of study should select courses at the 3000 and 4000 level.
