To Prospective Peruvians:

Peru State is the oldest college in Nebraska and the third oldest teacher-training institution west of the Missouri river. Peru was established the same year Nebraska became a state. For more than a century thousands of young people have crossed the Campus of a T)10usand Oaks and have gone forth to become teachers, advisors and friends tci countless hundreds of thousands of children throughout Nebraska and the nation.

The p eo ple of Nebraska have made the facilities of this College available to you at a minimum of personal cost . The taxpayers of the state bear a major portion of the cost of your college education exclusive of personal expenses.

Continuing pressures of society have placed a heavy burden upon colleges and universities. Public institutions, such as Peru State, generally have an "open door" admission policy i. e., admit graduates of accredited high schools without special entrance examinations Peru State believes every young person is entitled to a chance to succeed at the collegiate level, however, this entitlement does not include continuation beyond a reasonable time to the detriment of the student, his peers or the college program. We believe a young person of average or above ability coupled with willingness and work has an excellent opportunity for success at Peru State.

This college believes in academic excellence, in opportunities for personal growth in a controlled group atmosphere and in self-determination consistent with the principles of a democratically-organized society. The administration recognizes freedom of dissent but not disruption. We believe the great majority of students attend Peru State because of an intense desire to l ea rn and become productive citizens in a diverse society. All students are fully informed of what they may expect from the college and what is expected of them Those not willing to accept these expectations should seek the services of other institutions possibly less demanding.

Peru State students have an opportunity to know their teachers well and to become working partners with the staff and other students. To live with other young people in college residences offers many opportunities for friendship and growth for which living at home is no complete substitute.

The college faculty and staff are h e re to serve you. We will be happy to consult with you rega rding your educational plans.

Sincerely yours,

Neal S. Gomon, President

General Information

HISTORY

The same year Nebraska became a state, the new state legislature provided for the establishment of a trainin g school for teachers or norm a l school at Peru. At that tim e only two other such institutions existed west of the Missouri River - one in Kansas and one in California. The school's b eg inning actually d a tes back to December 2, 1865, when its pred ecesso r institution, Mount Vernon College, was organized by a group of ea rly settlers who resolved to place th e school under th e "care and management of the Methodist Episcopal Church."

After the church declined the offer, Col. T. J. Majors, a leader in the War betwe e n the States and a state legislator , proposed that the school be made the state univ ers ity. Although the offer was rejected, the state legislature on June 20, 1867, did accept the school as a "normal school" several months before the state university was established. For 38 years after the Peru school became a normal school, it was the only teacher education institution in the state.

As Nebraska's population increased , the le gislature provided for three other norm al schools - at Kearney in 1905, at Wayne in 1910 and at Chadron in 1911. The legislature extended the normal schools from two yea rs to four in l 921 and authorized these institutions to grant the degrees of Bachelor of Arts in Education, Bachelor of Science in Education and Bachelor of Fine Arts in Education. At the same time , the names of the schools were changed from State Normal Schools to State Teachers Colleges. In 1963 the name was changed to Peru State College.

When the United States entered World War II, the College offered its staff and facilities to the government for the training of officers for the armed forces. The first unit of men in the Navy V-12 program arrived on July l, 1943. During the time the nearly 500 trainees received college training, the College operated on an accelerated program for both civilian students and naval trainees. Since that time many of these trainees have used the hours of college credit ear-ned at Peru for degree requirements at Peru or other institµtiorn; of higher learning throughout the nation. ·

In 1949 , the legislature authorized the Nebraska State Colleges to confer the Bachelor of Arts degree. The Bachelor of Science degree was authorized in 1965.

GENERAL INFORMATION

LOCATION

Seat of Nebraska's oldest institution of higher education is historic Peru (population 1380) in the hills along the Missouri River in the southeast corner of the state. The picturesque Nemaha county town is 62 miles south of Omaha and 75 miles southeast of Lincoln. Peru is served by Nebraska Highway 67 which intersects U. S. Highway 73 and 75 six miles west of the campus. Auburn, county seat of Nemaha County, is five miles south, and Nebraska City, Otoe county seat, is 15 miles north of the junction of these highways. The Campus of a Thousand Oaks is on approximately the same latitude as New York City and is about 150 miles east of the center of continental United States. About 80 per cent of Peru's students come from Nebraska, with adjacent states well represented. Students from more distant states are also enrolled at Peru.

TRANSPORTATION

Daily bus service to Omaha, Lincoln, Kansas City, Topeka, with connections in those cities to more distant points, is available at Auburn, 12 miles from Peru. Persons wanting transportation from Peru to Auburn can usually find rides with students and faculty members.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AT PERU STATE COLLEGE

The purpose of financial assista nc e is to provide students with sufficient funds to meet all costs of obtaining a college education beyond what they and their parents are able to provide. Thus, financial aid enables many students from low and middle income families to attend college who cou ld not otherwise afford that opportunity.

Any assistance granted is awarded according to the financial need of the applicant. (Financial need is the differ e nce between the money a student and his parents can provide for an education and the costs of that ed u cation.) To be considered for assistance, the app licant must demonstrat e financial need.

In all cases, parents and st udent are expected to make a maximum financial contribution to the education of the applicant.

Financial assistance to qua lified applicants is available in the form of loans, grants , scholarships, and college-work. A student who qualifies for on e program of financial aid may not necessarily qualify for another. ,

"Financial packaging" permits the Financial Aid s Officer to tailor a program of financial assistance to meet the monetary needs of the individual student for one academic year. A financial package is wotked out on the basis of a careful estimate of the

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

applicant's estimated resources and educational costs for the school year.

A package usually consists of tw o or -more types of aid and is equal to the student's financial need. A typical package, in which the need is $1000 might be as follows: Educational Opportunity Grant, $500; National Defense Loan, $350; and scholarship, $150.

Funds for the operation of the different financial aid programs are drawn from Federal and Institutional sources.

STATE VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION AID

Through the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation individuals with physical disabilities which constitute vocational handicaps are eligible for financial assistance in meeting costs of tuition plus certain other financial help, depending upon the extent of their financial need.

Students interested in receiving this aid should contact the Director of Student Financial Aids for additional information.

FEDERALLY FUNDED PROGRAMS

Educational Opportunity Grnnts provide for the g1V1ng of grants to students who are determined to be of exceptional financial need. Students in this category will be of such need that they will be unable to attend college without financial aid of this type.

The EOG amounts range from $200 to $ 1000 a year, and . can be no more than one-half the total assistance given a student. The grant is "matched" with other financial aid to meet the student's financial need. Grants are awarded on a yearly basis with the maximum duration of a grant being four years.

College Work-Study is intended primarily for students from low-income families and permits them to earn a part of their college expenses. During the time they are attending classes full time, the student can work a maximum of fifteen hours per week. During vacation periods the students may be allowed to work forty hours per week. Work-Study jobs are usually oncampus or for the City of Peru and are vital to the efficient operation of both the College and the City. College Work-Study jobs are often used for matching purposes with a student's EOG grant.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

National Defense Student Loans are made to students who need financial assistance in meeting educational expenses. To be eligible, the student must be in good standing and be registered as a full-time student. NDSL loans are also commonly used for matching purposes with an EOG.

Federally Insured Student Loans are intended primarily for students who do not qualify for the other programs of financial assistance but who, nonetheless, need financial help. Any student, regardless of his parent's income, qualifies for the Federally Insured Loan program.

INSTITUTIONALLY FUNDED PROGRAMS

College Work jobs are similar to the Work-Study jobs in pay scale, type of work performed, and hours worked.

College Loan Fund loans are generally made on a short-term basis to students enrolled in the College, who are planning to teach, and are in need of financial assistance. The College Loan Fund was established by the class of 1913 with an initial gift of $50. The fund has since been increased to nearly $7000, with gifts by the Nebraska P.E.O.• in 1929, the Anna Irwin Memorial provided by the Peru Branch of the American Association of University Women, gifts by graduating classes, and interest accumulations.

Memorial Loan Funds established by various donors include : the $200 Willie Ethel Crone Loan Fund, established in 1943 by Miss Ruth Crone in memory of her mother; the $300 Harriet Louise Lindstrom Loan Fund, established in 1946 by the late C. R. Lindstrom and Mrs. Lindstrom in memory of their daughter; the Mrs. Eva Fischer Loan Fund provided in 1962 by a $5 00 bequest by the late Mrs. Eva Fischer of Beatrice; the Towne Loan Fund provided by a $1,411.24 bequest by the late Norman L. Towne of Bozeman, Montana, husband of the late Lola Howe Towne, class of 1906; the $250 Patricia Buethe Loan Fund, established in 1962 by friends of the late Mrs. L. Chris Buethe. Although there 'is som e variation in the specific requirements for these loans, the ge 'neral ' qualifications are the same as for the College Loan Fund: ( 1) be a student in the College (2) plan to teach (3) be in need of financial assistance. Loans from the College Loan Fund and Memorial Loan Fund are generally made on a short-term basis.

Campus Life
