PERU STATE COLLEGE
An Introduction to Peru State College
Peru State is the oldest college in Nebraska and the third oldest teacher-training institution established west of the Missouri River . Peru was founded the same year Nebraska became a state . For more than a century thousands of young people have crossed the Campus of a Thousand Oaks and have gone forth to become teachers and leaders in business and industry in Nebraska and throughout the nation .
The people of Nebraska have made the facilities of this College available to students at a minimum of personal cost. The taxpayers of the state bear a major portion of the cost of college education of the students, exclusive of personal expenses.
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. We believe a young person with ability and a willingness to work has an excellent opportunity for success at Peru State.
This College believes in academic exc;ellence, in opportunities for personal growth, and in student self-determination consistent with the principles of a democratically organized society. The administration recognizes that college students are adults and should be involved in the decisions made on campus which affect them. The educational experience provided by the College is designed to enable students to leam, equip themselves for meaningful careers, and become productive members of society.
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 co ll ege residences offers many opportunities for friendship, and growth, and personal development.
The college faculty and staff are here to serve you We welcome the opportunity to assist you in realizing your personal educational and career objectives.
General Information
HiSTORY
The same year Nebraska became a state, the new state legislature provided for the establishment of a training school for teachers or normal school at Peru. At that time only two other such institutions existed west of the Missouri Riverone in Kansas and one in California. The school's beginning actually dates back to December 2, 1865, when its predecessor institution, Mount Vernon College, was organized by a group of early settlers who resolved to place the school under the "care and management of the Methodist Episcopal Church" .
Colonel T. J. Majors , a leader in the War between the States and a state legislator, proposed that the school be made the state university 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 legislature provided for three other normal schools - at Kearney in 1905, at Wayne in 1910, and at Chadron in 1911. The legislature extended the normal schools from two years to four in 1921, 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 1, 1943 . During the time
GENERAL INFORMATION
the nearly 500 trainees received college training, the College operated an accelerated program for both civilian students and naval trainees. Since that time many of these trainees have used the hours of college credit earned at Peru for degree requirements at Peru, or other institutions 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. Emerging from the role of a single-purpose teacher ' s college, the College is now serving as a regional state college with many and diverse two and four-year programs in a wide variety of fields, serving to meet the changing higher education needs of people in southeast Nebraska.
MISSION
The mission of Peru State College is to offer instruction in selected programs and courses of study; to conduct research; and to provide public service.
Instructional programs include teacher education, liberal arts, sciences, pre-professional curricula, occupational and continuing education.
Research programs create new knowledge and provide a broader intellectual and factual basis for extended knowledge. Public service activities enhance and promote effective living of the people served by the College through assisting in the solution of problems and in the development of increased skills.

FINANCIAL AID
The purpose of financial assistance 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 enab les many students from low arid middle income families to attend college who could not otherwise afford that opportunity.
Any ass i stance granted is awarded according to the financial need of the applicant. (Financial need is the difference between the money a student and his parents can provide for an education and the costs of that education.) To be considered for assistance, the applicant must demonstrate financial need .
Financial assistance to qualified applicants is available in the form of loans, grants, scholarships, and college work. A student who qualifies for one program of financial aid may not necessarily qualify for another.
"Financial packaging" permits the Director of Financial Aid to tailor a program of financial assistance to meet the monetary needs of the individual student for one academic year. A financial package is worked out on the basis of a careful estimate of the applicant's estimated resources and educational costs for the school year.
A package usually consists of two or more types of aid and normally is equal to the student's financial need A typical package, in which the need is $1000 might be as follows: National Direct Loan, $350; scholarship, $150; and College Work - Study, $500.
Funds for the operation of the different financial aid programs are drawn from Federal and Institutional sources .
APPLYING FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
Any student who needs financial assistance, or desires to apply for a scholarship, should contact the Director of Financial Aid . Students are advised to begin the application procedure well before the deadline date, because establishing financial need is often a lengthy process . Applications for financial assistance for the coming year should be submitted to the Financial Aids office by April 15 .
FEDERALLY FUNDED PROGRAMS
Basic Educational Opportunity Grant - BEOG. The Higher Education Amendments of 1972 established a Basic Educational Opportunity Grant. The size of the grant is determined after considering the cost of attending the college and the Family Educational cost contribution. This family contribution is determined from a Financial Statement which is a part of the Application .

2. Complete the application and mail in the self addressed envelope provided.
3. The center will process your application and return to you a three-copy "Student Eligibility Report." SER.
4 . Present this SER to the College Financial Aid Office.
5. The Financial Aid Office, using guidelines established by the U.S . Office of Education, will determine the size of your grant.
6. The BEOG funds will then be distributed to you through the college.
Supplementary Educational Opportunity Grants provide for the giving 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 SEOG amounts range from $200 to $1000 a year, and can be no more than one-half of 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 .

CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS
College credit is expressed in terms of the semester hour, which represents the satisfactory completion of one hour of class attendance per week for one semester . The work may include any type of activity prescribed in the course - classroom work, preparation, laboratory or shop work, etc.
Students having earned less than 30 semester hours of credit are classified as freshmen; 30 to 59 hours as sophomores; 60 to 89 hours as juniors; and 90 to 125 hours as seniors. Degree students earning additional undergraduate credit are classified as post graduate students.
ACADEMIC LOAD
The normal class load for a full time student is 12 to 16 semester hours . The maximum load without special permis -sion is 17 hours. Students with a grade point average of 7 .00 for the previous semester may apply to the Registrar for one additional hour, making a total of 18 . An excess of 18 hours must be approved by the Chairperson of the division in which the student is majoring.
Veterans and other eligible persons attending this College under the benefits of Chapter 34 and 35, Title 38, U.S.C., as full time students must be enrolled for at least 12 semester hours, or the equivalent.
ATT ENDANCE AND SCHOLASTIC ATTITUDE
Students are expected to attend classes regularly , arrive punctually, and do all assigned work in each class . The student agrees to this when he registers for a course. Attendance is a privilege and a responsibility represented not only by the student's investment, but also by a significant investment by the State.
Whenever absences or other elements of scholastic attitude reach the point of being detrimental (regardless of cause) to the student's standing in class and/ or the success of the class as a whole , the instructor may confer with the student. The instructor and the student may mutually agree that the registration in the course should be cancelled or the instructor may issue the student a "scholastic alert" . Future conferences for the same or related r~asons may result in the instructor dropping the student from the class. If the student requests, the Vice President of Academic Affairs may be asked to participate in the decision
GRADING SYSTEM
A nine-point grading system is employed to evaluate the quality of the student's achievement.
Marking to designate failure and other irregularities.
X Incomplete
WP Authorized withdr awalpassing work at time
WF Authorized withdrawalfailing work at time
W Not graded
W Withdrawal - Not graded
The grades in numbers indicate the value of each semester hour of credit and also become the means for calculating the student's grade point average (GPA) to compare with scholarship standards Students are urged to calculate their own GPA from time to time and realize their own status The following two examples will be valuable in understanding the calculations :
GPA= 117 + 16 = 7.31
*When credit is ungraded, it is not included in divisor for GPA.
GPA = 37 + 15 = 2.47
(This GPA subjects the student to Probation .)
*This effects a lower GPA since credit value is part of divisor.
If WP, the Credit value is not used.
Incomplete (X) work may be completed and cleared through the instructor to earn a passing mark, and this must be done within the next semester or the record will show F (Failing).
SCHOLARSHIP STANDARDS
A candidate for a baccalaureate degree must earn at least 125 semester hours with a minimum grade point average of 5.00. A minimum GPA of 5.25 must be earned for degrees in Education. A candidate for the Associate of Arts degree must earn at least 60 semester hours with a minimum grade point average of 5.00.
To provide early information to students in regard to their academic work, grades are reviewed at the end of each nine weeks. A mid-term report for low or failing work is provided the student. A student receiving this notification should confer with the instructor and his faculty advisor.
A student to be in good standing academically must maintain the required GPA for the respective degree being pursued. A notice of unsatisfactory scholarship is forwarded to the student by the Vice President of Academic Affairs at the end of the semester if the GPA is 4.0-4.99. The notice is not a penalty, but a warning to notify the student that improvement is needed.
Should a student's GPA be 2.00-3.99 at the end of the semester, the student is notified he is on academic probation
for the next semester and will be subject to academic suspension if his GPA is still under 4.0 at the end of the probationary semester. Academic suspension is generally for two semesters.
If a student's GPA is below 2.00 at the end of any term, he will be academically suspended.
READMISSION POLICIES
Students suspended for academic reasons are to apply at the Registrar's office for readmission. Students suspended for social reasons are to apply to the Chairman of the Student Affairs Commission . Policies and conditions governing readmission are in the Student Handbook.

PRE -PROFESSIONAL CURRICULA
Most professional schools require for entrance two or more years of college credit in general education or basic liberal arts courses which vary only slightly from one profession to another .

Suggested among these are those for prospective doctors, dentists, pharmacists, optometrists, nurses, veterinarians, lawyers, engineers, agriculturists, foresters, mor:ticians, business executives, journalists and others. It is almost impossible to list all of the many pre-professional curricula. This does not preclude the availability of other pre - professional courses at Peru State. A student following a pre-professional program is urged to secure a bulletin from the institution to which he intends to transfer in order that specific requirements will be met. The various pre - professional programs are described under the appropriate school.
