An Introduction to Peru State College

Peru State is the oldest college in Nebraska and the third oldest teachertraining 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 to the students, e xc lusive of personal expenses

Public institutions such as Peru State generally have an "open door " admission policy, i.e., admit graduates of accredited high schools. Peru State believes every young person is entitled to a chance to succeed at the co llegiate 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 excellence , 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 learn, equip themselves for meaningful careers, and become productive members of society.

Peru State students have an opportunity to know t heir 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, 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

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 River-one in Kansas and one i n 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 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

FINANCIAL AID FINANCIAL AID

The purpose of financial assistance is to provide students with sufficient funds to meet the costs of obtaining a college education beyond what they and their parents are expected to provide. Thus , financial aid enables many students from low and middle income families to attend college who could not otherwise afford that opportunity.

Most assistance 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 qualified for one program of financial aid may not necessarily qualify for another.

"Financial packaging " permits the Director of Financial Aid to tailor a prog r am 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 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 $2000 might be as follows : Pell Grant $1000, National Direct Loan, $350 ; scholarship , $150 ; and College Work-Study, $500

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

ACAD'E1MIC REQUIREMENTS FOR MAINTAINING F I NANCIAL ELIGIBILITY

Every student receiving financial assistance from any Federally funded and/or college Administered Financial Aid Program is required to maintain satisfactory academic standing and progress . The standards for satisfactory academic standing are published under " scholarship standards" in the academic information section of this catalog The standards for Satisfactory Academic Progress as defined for Financial Assistance are published in the "Coll e ge Student Handbook" and in the "Financial Aids Student Handbook".

APPLYING FOR FINANCIAL ASS I STANCE

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 1. A student is required to

submit new application material each academic year .

FEDERALLY FUNDED PROGRAMS

Pell Grant - Formerly Basic Educational Opportunity Grant. The Higher Education Amendments of 1980 changed the name Basic Educational Opportunity Grant to Pell Grant. The size of the grant is determined after considering the cost of attending the college and the Student Eligibility Index . This Index is determined from a Financial Statement which is a part of the Application.

PROCEDURES FOR PELL GRANT

Cooperative Graduate Program. Peru State College and the University of Nebraska work cooperatively to offe r the Master's Degree in Elementary Education . Course work is taken on the Peru campus. The degree is granted through the University of Nebraska at Lincoln.

Evening College Courses. The College makes availabl e an on-campus evening program of course offerings beneficial in meeting the educational needs of students On-campus evening classes are offered each semester.

Continuing Education. The Continuing Education program is being developed via three primary trusts : (1) The e x ternal degree cooperative program with Southeast Community College , (2) an adult counseling service , and (3) individual credit and non -c redit courses offered in approximately twelve learning centers in our service area

The external degree programs are offered on the Southeast Community College Beatrice and Fairbury campuses as a resul t of a cooperative agreement drawn up by the administrators of both institutions and approved by their governing boards. In compliance with the terms of this agreement , the academic administrators of both institutions have approved curricula leading to the Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and the Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration . Students may take as many as sixty - six hours of credit with Southeast Community College before transferring into the Peru State College program for the completion of their degrees . Peru State College locates the remaining courses needed for the degrees on the Southeast campus, making use of both resident and adjunct faculty, so that students may complete the B S Degree granted by Peru State College without actual residency on the Peru campus However, students from those campuses are al s o offered the option of coming to the Peru campus if they so desire .

A Transfer Handbook has been compiled which serves as a guide for both student and advisor , listing the equivalencies of courses offered by both institutions and also listing the specific course requirements for each degree, as well as outlining the procedures for admission, registration , tuition and fees, and other matters relevant to acceptance into the program.

The adult counseling service is provided by a team composed of the Director of Continuing Education , the Director of Placement, and the Dean for Student Development. Adult career counseling nights in various learning centers are advertised and adults talk with this team concerning career changes , career advancement, re - licensing and certification, career choices, academic procedures , and scheduling. Adults are encouraged to contact the Director of Continuing Education at any time concerning academic advising. The Director serves as the off -c ampus student ' s ad-

visor, regardless of major, until that student transfers to campus for the majority of courses being taken

Individual learning centers are in a number of locations throughout our service area. Courses are offered in these centers in direct response to the needs of the people Most of the offerings are academic credit courses but there are also some non-credit courses and some CEU credit courses. The non-credit and CEU credit courses primarily deal with relicensing requirements, or with bringing consultants and/or specialists into an area which normally would have no access to them.

For specific listings of courses and their locations , a Continuing Education Schedule of Classes brochure is printed each fall, spring, and summer term All courses are monitored for quality control in order to maintain a consistency with campus quality The Continuing Education Division maintains offices in the Education Building, and is staffed five days per week, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p m Telephone 872-3815, extension 241 and 201.
