Purpose
The University of Dallas is a center of higher education whose primary purpose is the pursuit of wisdom and the formation of students in the intel lectual and moral virtues. The Univer sity seeks to educate its students so that they may achieve excellence of mind and heart, develop a mature understanding of their faith, and be come leaders able to act responsibly for the good of their communities. The University is sponsored by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Dallas. It is dedicated to the revewal of the Western heritage of liberal education and to the recovery of the Christian intellectual tradition. Its curriculum is informed by principles of learning which acknowledge transcendent stan dards of truth and excellence, and which affirm human nature to be spir itual, rational and free. These princi ples require freedom of inquiry and call everyone to reflect upon his opin ions in light of reason and revelation. The University is therefore open to faculty and students of all denomina tions, and supports their academic and religious freedom. The educational mission of the UniIversity is carried out in the Constantin College of Liberal Arts and in the Braniff Graduate School. Through its community and continuing education activities, the University also seeks to share its intellectual and spiritual re sources with the community at large. The specific purpose of the Con stantin College of Liberal Arts is to provide undergraduate education through a substantial core curriculum and major study in the arts and sci ences proper to liberal learning. The core curriculum emphasizes the study of the great deeds and works of Western civilization, both ancient and modern. The programs of major study are built upon that core to provide
disciplined inquiry into fundamental aspects of being or of man's relation to God, nature, or his fellow man . The curriculum as a whole seeks to pro vide students with the knowledge of nature and the understanding of the human condition necessary for life and work in a changing and prob lematic world. The Braniff Graduate School is also conceived in the spirit of liberal edu cation and undertakes to prepare stu dents for careers in a variety of pro fessions. The Graduate School of Management offers a masters pro gram in several management fields. Its curriculum is designed to provide students with a comprehensive un derstanding of business theory and practice, a critical appreciation of the "free enterprise system, and a capaci ty for principled and moral leadership in their chosen fields . The other mas ters programs educate students for careers in art, education, public ser vice or Christian ministry. Through its doctoral programs in the Institute of Philosophic Studies, the Braniff Grad uate School aims to recall the aca demic disciplines to their first princi ples and to maintain graduate study upon its natural foundation in the love of beauty, truth, and the good. Consistent with these principles, the University seeks students of uncom mon seriousness, intelligence, and spir it who will require excellence of them selves and of their teachers. The University seeks a faculty of superior teachers and scholars who are ani mated by the love of wisdom and dedicated to the quest for truth and ecelience in themselves and in their students. In summary, the University of Dallas aspires to be a center of the highest learning - a community of inquiry, knowledge, faith and virtue .

From the President
On April 22, 1982, Or Robert F Sasseen was inaugurated as the fifth president of the University of Dal/as. He came to the University from San Jose State University where he had been, since 1972, Professor of Politi cal Science and Associate Academic Vice President and Dean of the Fac ulty He holds the M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Chicago and the B.A. from the University of Notre Dame. A native of Rockville Center, New York, Or Sasseen began his teaching career at Marquette Univer sity and at the University of Santa Clara before joining the faculty of San Jose in 1965. The fol/owing speech was Or Sas seen's inaugural response. It was made in answer to the inaugural ad dress presented by Or Hobert W Burns, Academic Vice President, San Jose State University
"Liberal Education and the Rebirth of the University" Dr. Burns' thoughtful analysis sug gests that the university in America today is suffering a profound crisis, that the crisis originates in the ne glect of its essential purpose, and that the University of Dallas may be particularly well situated to help in the recovery of liberal education and, therefore, in the rebirth of the univer sity. Let us understand and accept the challenge he presents. Education was once viewed almost as a religion on which depended the virtue of citizens and the salvation of the Republic. Today, the university has come to be viewed as a welfare agency - an agency of questionable efficiency, more important perhaps than some service institutions, equal to oth ers but certainly less necessary than
those institutions concerned with health, safety, security, defense, transporta tion, energy or the production of food, clothing, shelter, wealth and the other necessities of life. Indeed, many uni versities accept such an understand ing of their nature and purpose. Faced with declining enrollments and dimin ishing public support, some are des perately searching for new markets and new programs - for new ways to justify their existence by proving their utility for satisfying the desires of indi viduals or the needs of society. A merely utilitarian understanding of the university, however, can only make matters worse. University spokes men often declare its utility for the production of the doctors, lawyers, teachers, nurses, managers, engi neers, scientists and other technicians now required for comfortable and se cure existence on this complex and precarious "Spaceship Earth." We proudly declare that we are in the business of developing human re sources, and are even indispensable for that purpose. But the university no longer has a monopoly on such post-secondary ed ucation, and experienced legislators are not convinced by its claims to superiority. Other institutions may well be better and more efficiently suited to produce the scientific truths or to train the various experts and techni cians needed today. Bell Laborato ries, for example, rival those of even the most prestigious universities, and their Nobel Laureates are no less cre ative. In 1969, IBM hired 3,427 per sons as faculty for its instructional programs which offered 18.5 million contact hours of instruction to the equivalent of 40,000 full-time students. That is more than any single universi ty in this area, or in most of the coun 5
try. If higher education consists in the post-secondary training of individuals in useful disciplines, fields and ser vices, then in 1978 colleges and uni versities enrolled 12.4 million of the 58.4 million persons pursuing such studies beyond high school. Higher education is a big business, and the university is only twenty-one percent of it. 1 It is no wonder that the university in America is suffering an identity crisis, nor that thoughtful persons are not persuaded by its claims to be indis pensable for the development of the human resources needed in these technological times. Such a crisis is inevitable whenever "higher educa tion" comes to be an equivocal term denoting any kind of post high school study or training. Nor is it easy to believe the univer sity's more traditional claim that it is necessary for the development of good and virtuous citizens . The campus troubles of the sixties served to un dermine that belief, and the universi ty's current curriculum justifies con tinuing disbelief. Anyone who tries to reform the chaos of courses known as general education, quickly becomes aware that there is no substantive ag reement about what constitutes an educated person -little agreement, therefore, about what courses must be required of all students for the baccalaureat degree. We do speak of the need to improve basic skills -reading, writing, computation-and to develop problem-solving abilities in our students, so they may think critically and act creatively. We seem to believe, however, that such ability can be developed through almost any program of instruction. We seem to have abandoned the idea that there

6
is a body of knowledge and under standing common to all educated per sons . It is as though the primary aim of education were not to know some thing, but to sharpen mental pro cesses. We seem to view students as problem-solving, communicating ma chines, not as persons whose specif ic humanity can be fully developed only through the mature understand ing of nature, history and human ex perience which is primarily available to us through the great works of hu man art, thought and culture. Once upon a more simple time, we used to believe that the essential, hence the unifying, identity-creating purpose of the university was the pur suit of truth and the education of students - not the pursuit of any old truth, in any old way, in any old sub ject, but the truth about the highest and most important things; not any old training, in any old subject of interest or utility, but the education of students to become virtuous citizens and good men and women. Such education -liberal education as it is . called - presupposes an agreement about virtue, goodness, the distinguish ing qualities of an educated human being and the curriculum necessary to develop them. There is no such agreement today. It is virtually impos sible to reach one in a climate of opinion which holds that values are subjective, truth is relative, man is historical, being is nothingness, good ness is in the eye of the beholder and that, therefore, freedom is self-creation and justice is the interest of the stronger. Such a climate of opinion must inevitably destroy the universi ty's most fundamental purpose, and hence destory also the ultimate foun dation of public trust and support. It is a climate of opinion apt for produc ing tyrants, not citizens - or else per sons who, doing their own pleasant thing, are good for nothing, not even themselves.
There is no substantive agreement today about what constitutes an edu cated person. Without it, liberal edu cation must inevitably become im poverished and be treated as merely one academic program among many. Without it, the university must inevita bly lose its bearings, become one more social service among many - to be treated accordingly. Without an animating, unifying belief about the qualities constituting the excellence of human being, and so of an edu cated person, the university must in evitably suffer a crisis of identity. It is difficult to avoid such a crisis when one is losing one's soul. At this point, the generous sugges tion that a university like ours could help in the resolution of that crisis may appear less problematic than it did at the outset. At the University of Dallas we believe liberal education to be our primary mission and declare the education of leaders to be our chief pedogogical task. Our General Bulletin "quite unabashedly" asserts that our "curriculum ... is based on the supposition that truth and virtue exist and are the proper objects of search in an education ." Finally, if liberal education presup poses a unifying understanding of hu man excellence, then as a Catholic University, we have a rich heritage and a profound understanding of man and the human condition to guide us in the education of students who rank among the best in the land. It would appear that we need only be true to ourselves to meet the challenge Dr. Burns has described. To restore liber al education and the university, we may need only to accept the call of Pope John Paul II "to set out without eq uivocation [our] Cathol ic nature, " and of the American bishops, "to manifest with unmistakable clarity, [our] Catholic identity and mission." That mission should be for us to actuate most fully the nature of the university as a cen
ter of truly higher learning, and to provide genuinely liberal education for students capable of leadership in their communities, their churches and our country. The Catholic intellectual tradition should provide the light nec essary for that task, and for the re birth of the university in America. There are some, however, who fear that religious belief is ultimately in compatible with the quest for truth and the proper freedom of the Acad emy. They reject, for that reason, the idea that virtue and goodness are proper ends of university education . Their fear has some foundation, at least, in human experience and re flection. We are all aware that a con cern for justice and human goodness can turn education into indoctrina tion. Orthodoxy is suspicious of inqui ry. Sectarianism destroys truth in the individual soul as well as freedom in the Academy and in society. But we must also be aware that without liber al education there can only be train ing or indoctrination. That awareness should persuade us of the necessary centrality of liberal education and illu mine the dangers to be avoided in our effort to be a Catholic university worthy of both names. The Catholic tradition has long maintained that there is no essential conflict between faith and reason, be tween revelation and reality. It has long maintained that grace does not destroy nature, but presupposes and perfects it. It has consistently main tained that truth is one - because "in the beginning was the Word and through the Word were made all things which were made." Our belief that the Word became flesh and rose from the dead may seem to defy, but should challenge and open reason to ever more profound dimensions of reality. That is why, from the perspective of faith, the CUltivation of the mind and heart remains the highest natural per fection of the human being, consis 7
tent with and perhaps even required by a faith in search of understanding. That is why, from the perspective of reason, the faith is a thorny spur to deeper understanding of the reality it seeks to comprehend . In reason as in faith, the Word is the beginning and the end. Let us, therefore, accept with confi dence the challenge to assist in the rebirth of truly higher education through the recovery of genuinely liberal edu cation. That challenge applies most directly to the faculty and students in the Institute of Philosophic Studies and in the Constantin College of Lib eral Arts. But it applies as well to our professional programs in the Braniff Graduate School and in the Graduate School of Management. If, for exam ple, management consists in the di rection of human beings in the pro duction of goods and services for the common good, then - as Dr. Burns put it- surely it is a profession "which in fact require(s) higher learning, ... draw(s) from and depend(s) upon the liberal arts and sciences ." The curric ulum of a professional school of man agement must be informed by them, for the world of business no less than the world of science, religion or poli tics needs well-educated persons who are well prepared to accept leader ship positions and to discharge their
8
responsibilities with understanding, judgement and justice. Liberal edu cation cannot be a specialty of only one part of the University. It· must somehow inform each part and char acterize the University as a whole. We must seek excellence in all our programs- undergraduate as well as graduate - not merely in convention al terms, but in the light of the Univer sity's highest end. We will not misunderstand the na ture of the challenge if we remember Plato's striking image of the human condition. We begin, each of us, pris oners in a cave who mistake the shad ows of images for the sun-drenched reality originating them. We are, each of us in varying degrees, captive of the opinions which dominate our time and which inevitably color the opin ions received from the caves of other times. Escape from the cave is possi ble, but exceedingly difficult-and rare. Yet we are called upon to help our students turn round from the shad owy images dominant in the cave of our time, so they may assist in mak ing our cavelife less dark-more just, more human, more beautiful and true. We may succeed in such a noble and problematic endeavor if we allow our untiring efforts to be informed by the Light which penetrates the cave from beyond and the soul from within.
History
The original charter of the Universi ty of Dallas dates from 1910 when the Vincentian Fathers took that name for the Holy Trinity College they had founded five years earlier. This char ter became dormant in 1929 and was placed in the Chancery Office of the Catholic Diocese of Dallas. In 1954, the Sisters of Saint Mary of Namur requested and obtained the charter for the purpose of operating a new institution in Dallas which would absorb the junior college of Our Lady of Vic tory operated by the Sisters in Fort Worth. The charter was revived in 1955 and efforts were undertaken to fund the new enterprise. However, the projected scope of the institution was sufficient to cause the Mother Superi or of these Sisters to withdraw spon sorship. The Sisters, together with laymen who were directing the drive for funds, Eugene Constantin, Jr. and Edward R. Maher, Sr., induced Bish op Thomas K. Gorman to have the Diocese take over sponsorship with ownership by a board of trustees. Bishop Gorman, as chancellor of the new university, announced that it would be a Catholic co-educational institution welcoming students of all faiths and colors, and offering work on the undergraduate level with a graduate school to be added as soon as possible. The new University of Dallas opened its doors to 96 students in Septem ber, 1956, on a thousand acre tract of rolling hills located northwest of the city of Dallas.
The first president, F. Kenneth Brasted, served until 1959, the sec ond, Robert Morris, from 1960 to 1962, and the third, Donald A. Cowan, from 1962 until 1977. In 1976, the Board of Trustees appointed Bryan F. Smith Chancellor to assist Dr. Cowan until his retirement and then to oversee the University until the search for a new President was concluded. On July 1, 1978, Dr. John R. Sommerfeldt took office as the new president of the University of Dallas. Dr. Sommer feldt resigned his executive responsi bilities in 1980 to return to full-time teaching and research . During the search for his successor, Dr. Svetozar Pejovich served as acting president. In July, 1981 Dr. Robert F. Sasseen became the fifth president of the Uni versity of Dallas. Members of the Cistercian Order and the Sisters of Saint Mary of Namur together with three Franciscan fathers and a number of laymen composed the original faculty of the University of Dallas. The Franciscan fathers de parted after three years. The Domini can fathers joined the faculty in 1958 and established the Albert the Great Priory. The School Sisters of Notre Dame came in 1962 and established the Motherhouse for the Southern Prov ince on the University of Dallas cam pus . The Cistercian fathers now have a permanent abbey and an excellent preparatory school for boys adjacent to the main campus. In time, the fac ulty has become largely lay, of many faiths, and counting numerous distin

guished scholars among its members. Accreditation by the Southern As sociation of Colleges and Schools came in 1963 on the first date the University was eligible for this recog nition. This accreditation was reaffirmed in 1973 and again in 1984. The 'first class was graduated in May, 1960 and immediately demonstrated the quality of the University of Dallas ap proach. Significant honors were won by that first group, including the Uni versity's first Fulbright and Woodrow Wilson awards for graduate study. The ensuing years have witnessed a steady growth in student body and physical plant. Enrollment is approxi mately 3000. Additions to the physi cal plant now bring to 28 the number of buildings on the campus. Growth of the area has made Dallas and Fort Worth into two separate dioceses. His Excellency Thomas Tschoepe is now Bishop of the Diocese of Dallas and Grand Chancellor of the University. A gift of seven and one half million dollars 'from the Blakely-Braniff Foun dation established the Braniff Gradu
10
ate School in 1966 and allowed the construction of the Braniff Graduate Center, the Braniff Tower and Mall. The Constantin Foundation similarly endowed the undergraduate college with gifts in 1967 and 1969. In re sponse to these gifts the Board named the undergraduate college the Con stantin College of Liberal Arts . The Rome Program began in 1970 and a legacy from the estate of Mrs. John B. O'Hara established the Summer Science Institute in 1973. Holy Trinity Seminary was founded in 1965 and occupied its present hand some facilities adjacent to the main campus in 1967. Its theology pro gram is part of the Braniff Graduate School. The Graduate School of Man agement was opened in 1966 and is now one of the largest such programs in the Southwest. In 1973, the Insti tute of Philosophic Studies, the doc toral granting program of the Braniff Graduate School and an outgrowth of the Wilmoore Kendall Politics and lit erature Program, was initiated .

In addition to the main worship space, the chapel includes the St . Thomas Aquinas Eucharistic Chapel. The Helen Corbitt Memorial Suite. Helen Lucy Corbitt willed half of her estate to the University. This endow ment has been reserved by the Uni versity to establish and maintain a special apartment on the campus for distinguished visiting professors . The apartment is decorated with Miss Corbitt's furniture, books, awards, and other memorabilia. Her lovely portrait graces the living room of the suite . Each year is held the Helen Corbitt Lectures on Excellence, a memorial series made available through a sep arate fund established by the Univer sity. O'Connell Hall, Theresa Hall, Ma donna Hall, and Catherine Hall com prise the East Quadrangle. They house three hundred students. Each hall has a lounge, television room , kitchen facilities , and a laundry room.

The Cistercians operate an excellent preparatory school , and several members of the Order are professors at the University. 13
Campus Life
The student at the University of Dallas finds that the close community relationships of the campus, the in tense creative and intellectual experi ences of the classroom, and the gen eral commitment of purpose provided by a religious atmosphere come to gether to give him a sense of free dom and integration. A special characteristic of the Uni versity of Dallas is th'e close relation ship between students and faculty. A faculty-student ratio of 1 to 14 per mits the personal attention of fine pro fessors who consider teaching a ma jor concern. More than seventy percent of the faculty hold the doctorate. Academic and social life are close ly linked at the University. The stimu lation of the classroom often moti vates extracurricular activities, as well as many events such as the lecture and fine film series, and the frequent art exhibitions in the Haggar Univer sity Center. Many activities are organized and sponsored by the Student Govern ment Association and include such traditions as Charity Week, the Chry santhemum 8all, Ground Hog Day, the Spring Formal, and the Spring Olympics. Working closely with the Office of Student Life, the Student Government plans a full calendar of dances, weekend movies, and off campus excursions . The Foreign Lan guage Clubs sponsor yearly events such as "Octoberfest", foreign lan guage plays and parties. For resident students, activities in the resident halls are organized through the Housing Office, Resident Hall Advisors, and Dormitory Councils . The General Studies Program, which
offers one-credit activity courses grad ed on a P/F basis, encourages other activities such as University Chorus, and Gallery Practicum, various volun teer programs and participation in Jour nalism activities.
Religious Services Mass is offered at noon and five daily and at several times during the weekend in the Chapel of the Incar nation. In addition to the regular schedule of Masses other religious events such as the Mass of the Holy Spirit, Advent Masses and Easter Week services mark the liturgical and academic sea sons. The University community is also welcome at liturgies at Holy Trinity Seminary, the Cistercian Abbey, Do minican Priory, and the School Sisters of Notre Dame. Catholic students are invited to be come active members of the Univer sity Parish which is overseen by a Parish Council composed of faculty and students. Arrangements are made for stu dents of other faiths to attend appro priate services in the city of Irving. A non-denominational scripture study group provides another focus for non Catholic and Catholic students.
Lecture Series and Films The Student Government commit tees in the areas of Lectures, Films, and Fine Arts provide an on-going lecture series in cooperation with the academic departments of the cam pus. Movies are shown every Friday and Sunday evening. 15
The Management Lecture Series sponsored by the Graduate School of Management brings outstanding lead ers in the management and econom ic professions to the campus to com plement the real-world emphasis of the graduate course work and labo ratory experience . Required for grad uate management students, these lec tures are open to undergraduates. The Eugene McDermott Lecture ship provides a major endowment to support visiting lecturers and to en courage their stay on the campus for some time as visiting professors . Past visiting professors include the distin guished historian Jacques Barzun, Hans-Georg Gadamer and Paul Riceour, noted philosophers, Malcolm Muggeridge, journalist and cultural crit ic, Norberg-Schulz and Edward Ba con, internationally known architects, and Eric Heller, important literary crit ic, Seymour Slive, internationally known art historian and former director of the Fogg, Harvey Mansfield, distin guished political philosopher.
The Arts University Theater, directed by the Drama Department, provides two ma jor productions a year for the enjoy ment of the university community. All students are invited to tryout for both these productions and senior studios. About twenty art exhibits are pre sented each year through the Haggar University Gallery Program and the Art Department. Each year the uni versity community is exposed to a wide range of art so as to visually educate with the breadth and depth of human imagination . Musical events are a regular part of campus life. The Monday Means Music Series schedules bi-monthly in dividual and group presentations by both off-campus and on-campus mu sicians . University Chorus, Chapel Choir, Parish Music Ministry, Lyric The ater, voice lessons and piano lessons 16
add to the activity. Informal student groups perform at the Sunday Coffee Houses and various talent shows .
Community Education The Office of Community Edu cation develops non-credit, special courses in response to community interest, often in conjunction with such community institutions as the Dallas Museum of Arts, Dallas Public Library, and the Cultural Affairs Council of Irving . It also coordinates efforts to share with the commun ity lecture se ries , plays, musical events, special symposia, and art exhibits . The Com munity Education bulletin is published twice yearly and serves both as a university calendar of public events and a catalogue of non-credit offerings.
Athletic Programs The university offers a variety of sports activities designed to nurture the physical well-being of its commu nity. While no formal physical educa tion courses are offered, numerous opportunities are offered for partici pation in both competitive and recrea tional athletic activity. Intercollegiate sports include bas ketball, tennis, cross-country, golf, and soccer. Teams compete in the Na tional Association of Intercollegiate Ath letics (NAIS), District 8. Intramural sports are popular among University of Dallas students who form their own teams to partici pate in flag football, soccer, volley ball, inner-tube water polo, floor hock ey, and basketball. Intramural clubs add to this activity. The Health and Fitness Club offers exercise classes; the Sailing Club sails every weekend (weather permitting) on area lakes in Soling, Sunfish and Resolute boats owned by the University. Camping, hiking, and skiing trips are organized by the Outdoor Recreation Club. A chapter of the Fellowship of Christian
Athletes is open to all intercollegiate and intramural participants. The Edward R. Maher Athletic Cen ter includes a 11,000 sq. ft. gym, a fully-equipped workout room and lock er facilities that also service the 75x42 foot swimming pool which is open ten months of the year. The eight screened, Laykold ten nis courts are open from 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Tennis lessons are avail able through the pro shop. Baseball, football and soccer playing fields are located near the other facilities and about the campus. Fifteen miles of mapped jogging trails cover the Uni versity's nearly 1000 acres.
Student Publications University News, a bi-weekly stu dent publication serves the students, faculty, staff, and administration of the University. The newspaper staff is com posed of students of all majors who have an interest in journalism. Stu dents gain skills in many areas, in cluding: writing, editing, photography, layout, and advertising. Although staff members are not required to take Journalism Practicum, students may earn 1 credit (pass/fail) by enrolling in the course . The Crusader, UD's yearbook, is published early each fall. It is staffed by students who plan, compose, and layout the volume. Photographs are shot, developed and printed by stu dents. Special sections of the Jour nalism Practicum focus on the year book; participants may earn 1 credit. UD's literary magazine, Touchstone, is published each spring. Students submit poems, short stories, essays and black and white art work to a staff of student editors who review the work and select the pieces that will appear in the magazine. All stu dents are encouraged to submit their work. A special section of the Jour nalism Practicum is arranged for those students who edit the magazine.
Housing Much of campus life begins with the resident community. The Universi ty regards on-campus residency as an important element in the academic, spiritual, and cultural development of the student. Not only is residency beneficial for the student individually, but each student contributes in turn to the community as a whole. Except for local students living with their par ents, students considering the Uni versity should expect to live on cam pus during their collegiate careers. Students live in air-conditioned dor mitories in single, double or triple rooms. All dormitory contracts include food service. The University also offers apartment accommodations designed to house upper division and graduate students. These one (two student occupancy) and two (four student occupancy) bed room units received the 1981 Texas SOCiety of Architecture Honor Award . Apartment residents have the op tion of preparing their own food or participating in the University food service plan. Head Residents and Resident Ad visors assist in managing residence facilities and often serve to advise and counsel underclassmen. Senior men and women, married students, veterans, and students liv ing with their parents are permitted to live off campus. Although many universities and col leges embrace a more liberal open house or visitation policy, the Univer sity of Dallas allows only limited open house privileges. It does not include "closed-door" visitation. Further information on housing fa cilities is available from the Housing Department. These facilities, the cam pus environment, and activities are described in the Student Handbook which is compiled by the Office of Student Life in cooperation with the Student Government. All students
17
should be familiar with the contents of the handbook.
Counseling Personnel of the Office of Student Life function as counselors and refer ral agents for the students in all areas related to University life. A profes sional psychologist is on call to assist with student problems of a more seri ous nature. The Director of Religious Life and his associates are available to dis cuss with students problems of a reli gious or personal nature. Also, coun seling is provided through faculty advisers who are concerned with scho lastic, vocational, and social interests of the students. The Associate Dean of the College oversees all undergraduate academic counseling in conjunction with fresh men advisors and Department Chair men. During the New Student Orienta tion period, various placement tests are administered to all beginning freshmen. Personal interviews assist the student in choosing suitable courses of study. Most programs for new stu dents are developed prior to registra tion. In the Spring of the junior year all junior degree plans are reviewed through personal interview. In addi tion to providing an audit of what the student still needs to complete the requirements for degree, the inter views assist the student with course selection and research direction ap propriate to plans following gradua tion. Senior interviews in the early Fall also provide guidance concerning graduate school and careers in addi tion to providing a useful evaluative tool for the institution. Mid-term grades are reported to both student and advisor. While they do not become a permanent part of the record they provide a warning of potential academic problems.
18
Discipline The Administration reserves the right to request a student to withdraw for failure to meet standards of scholar sHip, character, or health, or for refus al to conform to the letter and spirit of University regulations. At the end of each academic year a review board consisting of members of the admin istration and faculty will meet to con sider the advisability of readmitting to the University of Dallas students who have had serious academic or non academic difficulties during the year. Academic regulations concerning continuance at the University are in cluded in this Bulletin. Regulations governing activities outside of the classroom, that is, student life mat ters, are listed in the Student Hand book, which is available in the Office of Student Life . Both documents are published yearly. It is the responsibili ty of the student to secure both of these documents and to be aware of the various regulations.
Job Placement The Office of Financial Aid handles information on part-time positions available for student employment both during the regular year and in the summer. The Education Department arranges job interviews and maintains current employment information for stu dent teachers. The Office of Student Life has information on resume plan ning, interview techniques, and job possibilities. It schedules interviews with corporations that recruit on cam pus, arranges career seminars, and so forth. The Registrar's office main tains a resource library about gradu ate study and sponsors meetings each year concerning such post-baccalaur eate opportunities.
Student Health Services
Hospitalization Insurance
The health of the resident students is under the care of the University Medical Director. A registered nurse has regular daily hours on the cam足 pus during the Fall and Spring Se足 mesters . Her services are available to all students . Complete medical care is available twenty-four hours a day at Samuel I Clinic and at St Paul Hospital.
A voluntary group health insurance plan is available to full-time University of Dallas students. The University re足 quires all students living in University housing to hold the health plan or some other plan equivalent to it. All international students must take spe足 cial University health insurance . .

CONSTANTIN COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS
History The Undergraduate College bears the name of one of its founders and principal benefactors. The later Mr. Eugene Constantin, Jr., was chairman of the first funds drive and served the University as a trustee from its begin ning. Ruth and Eugene Constantin, ,..Ir., established an undergraduate en dowment fund in memory of their son and took as their principal interest the welfare of the undergraduate col lege. Fittingly the Board of Trustees in 1970 named the college in their honor.
The Curriculum Quite unabashedly, the ·curriculum at the University of Dallas is based on the supposition that truth and vir tue exist and are the proper objects of search in an education. The curriculum further supposes that this search is best pursued through an acquisition of philosophical and theological principles on the part of a student and has for its analogical field a vast body of great literature- per haps more extensive than is likely to be encountered elsewhere - supple mented by a survey of the sweep of
history and an introduction to the po litical and economic principles of so ciety. An understanding of these sub jects, along with an introduction to the quantitative and scientific world view and a mastery of a language, is expected to form a comprehensive and coherent experience which, in effect, governs the intellect of a stu dent in a manner which develops in dependence of thought in its most effective mode. Every student builds his own intellectual structure on the core curriculum and is bolstered by the fact that this experience is shared with the entire community of his fel low students. He then goes on to pursue his chosen major discipline, reaching - according to this theory of education - a level of maturity and competency in the discipline that he could not have attained in the absence of a broad and general foundation. Discovering and transmitting the wis dom of the Western tradition is an undertaking inseparable from the task of preserving language. The Univer sity acknowledges an obligation at once professional, civic, and spiritual to encourage in its students a re spect for language, and to train young men and women to write and speak with directness, precision, vigor and color.
33
Major Programs The University offers major programs leading to a Bachelor of Arts in Art, Biology, Biochemistry (B.S.), Econom ics, Chemistry, Classics, Drama, Edu cation, English, Foreign Languages, History, Mathematics, Philosophy, Pol itics, Physics, Psychology, and Theol ogy. During the second semester of his sophomore year, each student must apply to the chairman of a depart ment for acceptance into the major prog ram of that department. It is possible for a student to pur sue a Bachelor of Science program in Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics by com pleting all the B.A. requirements in the selected field and taking at least twelve additional hours in that field and offering twelve additional hours for the degree. This degree normally requires a full-time summer during which time the student pursues inde pendent advanced research. In the Braniff Graduate School the University offers degrees in Art, Ameri can Studies, Divinity, Management, Education, English, Humanities, Poli tics, Literature, Philosophy, Psycholo gy, and Theology.
Constantin Scholars Program Uniquely qualified students may have the opportunity to shape a par ticular inter-disciplinary curriculum un der the direction of a personal com mittee. For more information on this major please see "Constantin Schol ars Program" in Departments and Courses of Instruction section of this bulletin.
Professional and Preprofessional Training Those students who are to become lawyers, doctors, dentists, priests, or teachers, or who are to go on to 34
graduate study in any field, should be among the University's most ca pable graduates, fulfilling to a high degree its stated aims. Consequent ly, the pre-professional curricula at the University are broad, thorough, and liberal, designed to qualify the student for entrance into graduate or professional schools as well as to give him the finest possible basis for his professional study and career. Ear ly in his sophomore year the student should discuss with his advisors the entrance requirements of the particu lar graduate or professional school he wishes to enter.
Architectu re Although the University of Dallas has no school of architecture, it is possible to complete the first two years of an architecture curriculum at the University because of its unusually fine departments of Art, Physics, and Mathematics. Those planning later pro fessional studies in arcrlitecture are counseled to choose, as early as pos sible, the schools of arcrlitecture to which they intend to transfer and to study the catalogue requirements of those schools in consultation with the Chairman of the Art Department. Architecture is a very broad field. Many universities are now confining this study to the graduate level; an undergraduate major in Art, with work in mathematics and science as indi cated by the kind of architecture en visioned, is an excellent preparation.
Business Management The programs in management of fered by the Graduate School of Man agement presuppose a sound under graduate background . The graduate years concentrate upon modern techniques, including the use of computers. A "through pro gram" combining an undergraduate major with the Business Management program can be completed within five
years from the date of initial enroll ment. Upon completion the student will have earned both the B.A. and the M.B.A. degrees. Pre-Law
The Pre-Law Club and its advisor give assistance to students interest ed in preparing for the legal profes sion. Suggestions are made as to pertinent electives, for example, the accounting course offered by the Grad uate School of Management which may be taken by the student in the senior year. Medicine and Dentistry
The University recommends that the student who plans a career in medi cine or dentistry earn the Bachelor of Arts degree before beginning profes sional study. The student may elect an undergraduate major in any de partment, taking as electives the courses needed to satisfy entrance requirements of particular schools. The student should confer regularly with the premedical advisors in the de partments of Biology and Chemistry concerning his course of studies at the University of Dallas. Medicine
According to the admission require ments listed in the Journal of Ameri can Medical Colleges, medical schools prefer students who have had: (1) A broad general education; (2) At least three years of college; (3) A major in any field according to student interest; (4) Basic science requirements, al though not science that dupli cates medical course work. About sixty percent of the medical schools require a bachelor's degree or at the very least that the student
be an exceptional student. The ad mission committees of medical schools strongly favor individuals with a liber al arts background, preferably with a Bachelor of Arts degree. Generally speaking, the preferred premedical curriculum includes: English
12 credits
Biology or Zoology
12 credits
Physics
8 credits
Inorganic Chemistry
8 credits
Organic Chemistry
8 credits
Calculus
6 credits
Dentistry
Preprofessional training in dentistry should take at least three years. Gen erally speaking, the predentistry cur riculum should include: English
6 credits
Inorganic Chemistry
8 credits
Organic Chemistry

Engineering
The University does not offer an undergraduate degree in Engineer ing. However, its Physics program pro vides a sound and, in most cases, preferred background for further study specifically in Engineering. The com bination of undergraduate degree and post-baccalaureate specialization year amounts to about the same time span as the usual engineering program and provides a broader education along with time to involve oneself in a disci pline. Upon consultation with the De partment of Physics, students may arrange electives in applied engineer ing through the TAGER television network. Engineering Areas of chemical, en vironmental and biochemical- bio medical engineering may also be
35
served by undergraduate degree pro grams in biology, biochemistry or chemistry. A preengineering program may be arranged for the student who plans eventual transfer to standard engineering curricula. Allied Health Sciences
The University encourages students interested in the allied health science professions to complete a B.A. in Bi ology or Chemistry or a B.S. in Bio chemistry before entering a school of Allied Health Sciences. The advan tages of the degree background are numerous. In order to cope with new developments in the profession, in cluding increasingly complex equip ment, a strong background in mathe matics and physics included in the Biology or Chrmistry major at UD be comes essential. A deg ree also pro
36
vides the option of entering graduate schools of biology or chemistry or going on to medical school should there be a change of interest. Teacher Education
The teacher education program is an important function of the Universi ty. The program develops out of the questions of what it means to learn and what it means to teach. An em phasis is placed upon a sound aca demic preparation through the liberal arts tradition. The major areas of learn ing are rigorously studied . A counsel ing service is provided to assist stu dents in planning individual programs leading to either the elementary or secondary state certificate. The aca demic departments work closely with the Education Department particularly in the area of secondary certification .
Admissions
The University is open to applicants without regard to ethnic or national origin, creed , or sex. Applicants for admission must furnish evidence of good character, good health, and suf ficient preparation and ability to do the work contemplated.

Veterans who do not com ply with the standards must be re ported to the Veterans Administration.
There are two standard examina tion systems which the University uti lizes in placement. It also makes use of the high school record, entrance and achievement scores, and of vari ous departmental measures in judg ing the levels of capabilities of the student.
A. Advanced Placement Upon approval of the Office of the Academic Dean and the department concerned, the University may grant both placement and credit toward the undergraduate degree through the Ad vanced Placement Examinations of the College Entrance Examination Board in the following manner. The AP credit awarded is generally equiv alent to six credits at the University of Dallas. A score of 4 or better on the partic ular AP examination will secure the student immediate placement out of and credit for the comparable course or courses at the University of Dallas. A score of 3 or better will secure immediate placement and may se cure retroactive credit toward the de gree upon completion of another course in that area of study with a grade of B or better. The additional course must be completed by the end of the sophomore year in order to secure credit through the AP ex amination .
VI. Academic Placement The University holds that some sys tem of granting placement to quali fied students is both necessary and just. It is not the desire of the Univer sity to require students to repeat ma terial in which they are already com petent. However, the University does not believe in acceleration for its own sake; it believes that time is often essential to both the broad and thor ough understanding integral to the education of the whole man.
40
B. College Level Examination Program The University considers the Col lege Level Examination Program and appropriate method by which the non traditional student might certify ac complishments in certain academic areas. Any granting of credit through CLEP is done on an individual basis. Scores presented must be in the 60 or above range.

and major field requirements. The selection of two courses from 1301, 1302 or 1305 sequence will be the choice of many students.
4. Physical or Natural Science
6 credits
The student may offer any labo ratory science in fulfillment of this requirement. Students who are not majoring in science or in mathe matics should select two courses from the Basic Ideas of Science sequence (Science 2310, 2311, 2312, 2313). They are encour aged to elect higher level courses if qualified.
5. Foreign Language

11. Major Program The student must satisfy the re quirements of his major program as established by the department in which he elects to major. Grades below C - in advanced courses in the major department do not count toward fulfillment of the major requirement.
12. Advanced Credits The student must earn thirty-eight credits in courses number 3000 or above, of which thirty must be earned at the University of Dallas. The last twelve advanced credits in the major must be earned at 54
13. Total Credits The student must earn a mInI mum of 120 credits, exclusive of beginning language courses. Stu dents who wish to pursue a dou ble major, that is, apply for two undergraduate degrees, must sat isfy the requirements of both ma jor and must present at least 150 credits .
14. Grade Point Average To obtain a degree, the student must offer an overall grade point average of C (2.000). Not more than 30 credits passed with a grade of D are acceptable for graduation.
15. Residence Requirements The final year of study must be spent at the University of Dallas .
16. Comprehensive Examination In his senior year, the student must pass a comprehensive ex amination in his major field.
17. Graduate Record Examination Although not required, the Uni versity urges the student to take the Graduate Record Examina tion or other professional exami nations at the appropriate times.
18.

A portion of the initial General De posit may be credited against this fee . All other accounts must be settled satisfactorily prior to grad uation.
Academic Policies and Procedures Credits The credit given for each course is listed with the description of the course. Normally, one credit represents a mini mum of fifteen hours in lecture or seminar periods. Art studio periods and science laboratory periods rep resent a minimum of thirty laboratory or studio hours per credit but may exceed this number in particular dis ciplines.
Course Numbers The four-digit numbering system may be interpreted as follows: the first num ber indicates the level of the course; the second digit is the number of credits available; the third and fourth digits are chosen by the department offering the course. The first (level) digit follows this pattern: 1 and 2 indicate freshman and sophomore year courses, 3 and 4 are advanced courses, 5 shows that the course is for seniors or graduate students, and courses numbered 6 and above are graduate-level courses. A "V" in place of the second (credit) digit indicates a course in which credits may be arranged at the beginning of each semester for a group of students or an individual student on a variable system at the time of registration by permission of the instructor.
Classification of Students A student who has earned less than thirty credits is classified as a fresh man; from thirty to fifty-nine credits, a sophomore. To be classified as a ju nior, a student must have earned six ty credits and have accumulated a minimum total of one hundred twenty grade points. A senior is one who
has earned ninety credits and is ca pable of finishing in one year all re quirements for a degree. A special student is one who is not enrolled as a candidate for a degree. Special students who wish to become candidates for degrees must fulfill the requirements of the University and secure the approval of the Admissions Committee. A full-time undergraduate student is one enrolled for a minimum of twelve semester hours.

MW Indicates withdrawal for medical reasons as certified by a per sonal physician or the University Health Service. Incomplete. It is assigned by the instructor when a student has failed to satisfy minor require ments of the course or has an excused absence from a final examination. I grades in under graduate courses, which are not removed within the first four weeks of the following semester, will be changed to F. UW Unofficial withdrawal. Assigned by the Office of the Registrar, when there is no record of with drawal from a course or courses or evidence of presence in or completion of the course or courses. The UW grade may be considered as an F grade upon review of application for read mission . AD Audit. Non-credit participation in a regularly scheduled course. No final grade assigned or credit awarded. The decision to audit a course must be made by the end of the drop/add period of the particular semester. Grade to be assigned at a later T date. X Assigned when a student miss es the final examination.
Withdrawal Withdrawal from courses or from the University must be with written permission of the Dean of the Col lege. Students are not permitted to withdraw from courses during the last two weeks before the final examina tion period. 56
Academic Discipline The University has no policy for academic probation. Students are giv en every opportunity to adjust to the demands of a college curriculum . How ever, a student may be dismissed for academic reasons if his cumulative grade-point ratio indicates an inabili ty to achieve minimum degree re quirements. The following guidelines relate to dismissal. They apply to the student carrying at least 12 hours per semester.

The grade of I is averaged as an F grade until it is removed. A student requesting a grade of I must be able to maintain the minimum cumulative GPA which includes the I grade . A student carrying fewer than 12 semester credits per semester must maintain a 2.0 average. Part-time stu dents who do not have a 2.0 grade point average at the end of the sec ond semester will be allowed one semester probation.
Student Reports Midsemester grades of 0 and F are reported to all students and advi sors and to the parents of students who are dependent according to sec tion 152 of the Internal Revenue Code. They are not part of the permanent record. Reports of final grades are also made.
Grade-Point Average The grade-point average is found by dividing the total number of quali
ty points earned by the total number of credit hours attempted. In order to receive a degree, a student must at tain an over-all average of C (2.000 quality points). Not more than 30 credit hours passed with a grade of Dare acceptable for graduation. The Uni versity counts the first grade earned in a course, that is, the first grade stands even if the course is repeated and a better (or lesser) grade is received.
tion applies. If a grade change is warranted, the professor will report same to the Registrar. No grade change will be accepted after thirty days unless authorized by the appropriate dean. Delayed re quests for a change in grade which would make the student eligible for academic honors, or for graduation, or which would prevent dismissal for academic deficiencies, will not be accepted.
Honor Roll
Absences
A student earning 14 or more cred its in a semester and achieving a grade-point average of 3-3.49 is placed on the Honor Roll.
Absences in excess of three in any one course, or three successive ab sences in a course, may be reported to the Dean by the instructor. The Committee on Academic Dis cipline may drop a student from any course for excessive absences, re gardless of their cause, and assign a grade of FA. No official of the University nor any faculty member may exempt a stu dent from a class, laboratory, or ex amination period. Each student is held accountable to the individual instruc tor for his absences or free "cuts." Etiquette suggests that the student explain rlis absences to the instructor.
Dean's List A student earning 14 or more cred its in a semester and achieving a grade-point average of 3.5 or higher merits the distinction of being placed on the Dean's List which is published at the end of each semester.
Examinations At the end of the semester, there is a two-hour written examination in each course. This final examination covers the work of the entire semester. No students are exempted from the final examination. Unexcused absence 'from a final examination may constitute a failure. Permission to make up an exami nation missed because of extenuat ing circumstances may be granted by the Dean. In all cases in which a special examination is required, a fee of $5.00 will be charged.

dependent students. Once a year the University informs the student about the right of access to his official file and limitations thereon. It also informs the student of those things which shall be considered a matter of "directory information" according to the law, i.e., which can be released without per mission. These may include the fol lowing: the student's name, address, telephone listing, date and place of birth, major field of study, participa tion in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of mem bers of athletic teams, dates of atten dance, degrees and awards received, and the most recent previous educa tional agency or institution attended by the student. Transcript Policies (Undergraduate and Graduate)
1. No transcript or other evidence of attendance is issued to or for a student who is in debt to the Uni versity until such indebtedness has been paid in full. 2. Transcripts are issued only at the request of the student or appropri ate institutions and officials . 3. All official transcripts are photo static copies of the student's per manent record in the office of the Registrar. The first transcript is is sued free of charge . For each one thereafter, a fee of $1 is assessed . 4. Transcripts which have been pre sented for admission or evaluation of credit become a part of the student's permanent record and are not reissued . Transcripts from other institutions, if needed, must be obtained directly from the origi nal issuing institution. 5. Transfer work from other institu tions will not be recorded on his University of Dallas record unless the student is a degree candidate on this campus.
58
Leave of Absence
It sometimes become necessary for a student to leave school for a se mester or two. In order to facilitate his or her return to the University the student should apply for a leave of absence indicating the probable se mester of return . This notation will assist the University in providing the student with a more automatic rein statement of matriculated status, fi nancial aid, and housing reservations. Leave of Absence forms are avail able in the Registrar's Office.
Academic Honesty
The University is a community ded icated to learning and research, both of which include the transmission of knowledge . In striving to learn, we are often dependent on what others have achieved and thus become in debted to them . Courtesy, gratitude and justice require that we make pub lic our reliance on and use of the ideas and writings of others. Plagiarism, an attempt to claim as our own ideas or writings that origi nate with others, is a serious offense against the academic community. Plagiarism is not mitigated by a para ph rase or even by an extensive re writing of another's work. Whenever ideas or words are borrowed, the stu dent must give credit by citing the source. The same principle of hones ty applies to the use of modern technologies like the computer: sources of information must be accu rately credited. A student who submits plagiarized work is subject to disciplinary action. An instructor who discovers that pla giarized work has been submitted in fulfillment of course requirements shall
immediately inform the student, al lowing him or her the chance to ex plain the circumstances. If, after con ferring with the student, the instructor still considers the student's work to be plagiarized, then the instructor will compile the materials of the case, including the piece of work that may have been plagiarized, any sources from which the student plagiarized and a report of the instructor's conversa tion with the student. He will submit these materials to the appropriate academic dean. If the student acknowledges in writ ing that he or she plagiarized, the case does not go to an academic disciplinary committee. Instead, the instructor assigns a grade on the work and a grade in the course, up to and including failure in the course. The appropriate academic dean reviews the case and decides on a penalty beyond the grade, according to the procedure described below. If the student does not acknowl edge the plagiarism, the appropriate academic dean will submit the case, with all relevant materials, to the academic disciplinary committee of the student's school. That disciplin ary committee will conduct its own investigation and will hold a hearing at which the student, without counsel, will be invited to present his or her case and to respond to the commit tee's questions. The committee will decide solely on whether the student did plagiarize, and will base its deci sion only on the evidence, not on mitig.ating or extenuating circum stances. If the committee finds that plagiarism did occur, it will convey its findings to the instructor and to the appropriate academic dean. The instructor will assign a grade to the material in ques tion and a grade for the course, up to and including failure in the course, and shall report these grades to the
appropriate academic dean. The Dean shall hold a show-cause hearing with the student on why he or she should not be dismissed from the University, and shall decide on any penalties beyond the grades, up to and includ ing dismissal from the University. If the appropriate academic disci plinary committee decides that the work is not plagiarized, the committee will inform the instructor of its deci sion. The instructor shall then com pute a grade for the piece of work and the course without regard to plagiarism, but solely on the basis of his judgment of the quality of the student's work. The case against the student is then dropped. Adequate procedures for dealing with instances of plagiarism in off campus programs will be determined by the appropriate academic dean in consultation with the director of that program. When an instance of plagiarism is discovered in a thesis or dissertation, work toward the degree shall be ter minated. If the degree has already been granted at the time the plagiarism becomes evident, regardless of the length of time ensuing, the degree shall be revoked.
Cheating The integrity of examinations is es sential to the academic process. A student who cheats on examinations or other work submitted in fulfillment of course requirements is subject to disciplinary action. When cheating is discovered during the examination it self, the instructor or proctor is to take up the examination and dismiss the student from the examination for a later appearance before the instruc tor. The review of all cheating cases and the imposition of penalties will follow the procedure explained under "plagiarism."

Commencement Ceremonies and Awards Graduation The University of Dallas observes the custom of a single graduation ceremony at the closing of the spring semester. However, for the benefit of graduates who complete all require ments at other times during the aca demic year, diplomas are awarded in August and December. However, the formal ceremonies in August and De cember are confined to Graduate School of Management students. Stu dents should consult the Registrar for final filing dates and other particulars concerning graduation .
A transfer student, to be eligible for honors at graduation, must have earned sixty credits at the University of Dallas. His average, however, is computed on the basis of his four year program. At commencement exercises each year, Faculty Medals are awarded to the two undergraduates with the highest over-all averages. The Cardinal Spellman Award, maintained by interest on a special fund given by His Eminence, the late Francis Cardinal Spellman, is pre sented each year to assist an out standing senior in his further studies.
Awarding of Degrees All degrees are granted by the Board of Trustees of the University upon recommendation of the Board by the Respective faculites through the Provost and the President of the University.
Ann Heller Maberry Award This award has been given annual ly since the 1969-1970 school year to an outstanding woman student of the University of Dallas . This award is funded by the pro ceeds from a gift made by Mrs. and Mrs. Fred Lange in memory of the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank HeIl er, patrons of the University of Dallas.
Graduation Honors The baccalaureate degree with dis tinction, awarded to students who have maintained a high degree of scholas tic excellence, is of three grades: Cum Laude, which requires a grade-point average of 3.400; Magna Cum Laude, a grade-point average of 3.700; and Summa Cum Laude, a grade-point average of 3.900.
The Teller Award Established by the alumni and fac ulty of the Department of Education, this award is named for Dr. James D. Teller, professor emeritus. It is awarded to the outstanding senior education major based upon scholastic achieve ment, leadership ability, and potential as a teacher.

The Rome Program Director of Rome Campus, 1985-86, James M. Fougerousse; Associate Director, Shembri.
In the fall of 1970, The University instituted an exciting innovation in its sophomore curriculum, The Rome Program. Under this arrangement all sophomores are encouraged to spend one semester on the University's Rome Campus. The road to Rome from Dallas doubt less needs no justification. We are all of us still, in a sense, as T. S. Eliot has said , citizens of the Roman em pire, for Rome brought together the Judaeo-Christian revelation and the classical wisdom to form that Europe which was the progenitor of Ameri can ideals . Thus, to be a student in the Western World - to seek one's true heritage in the liberal arts - is to follow the path to Rome. The curriculum of the Rome Pro gram is arranged so that this experi ence can be an integral part of the undergraduate education at the Uni versity of Dallas regardless of major. Courses in the foreign study pro gram are taught primarily by Univer sity of Dallas professors. They are selected from those core curriculum requirements which are closely con cerned with the development of West ern Civilization and which are most suitable to the particular experience. Costs
Cost of participating in the program is approximately the same as that for a resident student on the main cam pus except for the group flight charges. The student will, of course, need ex tra funds for spending money and
travel about Europe. Most financial aids in effect on the main campus apply to the Rome experience. Counseling
The University makes every effort to assist the student to plan for the foreign study semester by counseling the proper selection of courses prior to the semester abroad and through orientation programs held throughout the freshman year. The Campus
The Rome Campus is located at the Hotel La Villa on the outskirts of Rome. The University is the primary occupant of this facility which includes a lounge, classrooms, dormitory ac commodations , chapel. Mail to the Rome Campus should be directed to: University of Dallas Rome Program, Via del Pescaccio 103, Zona Aurelia Raccordo Anulare, 00166 Roma, Italia. Travel in Europe
Obviously, not all that is to be gained by a semester abroad is found in the classroom . In fact the classes are scheduled so as to encourage con stant tours. Long weekends permit travel to other parts of Italy as well as to neighboring countries. The Rome semester includes one official trip to Greece in which every student participates. The schedule also permits a ten day break for general European travel and several other spe cial trips .
63
Eligibility In order to attend the Rome pro gram the student must have sopho more standing, have spent at least one full-time semester on the main campus prior to participation and have achieved a two point cumulative grade point average. Students who have poor academic standing or who are on disciplinary probation may not be eli gible during the semester of their pro bation. Students with incompletes may not participate in the Rome program .
Discipline Students going to Rome are ex pected to behave in .a .m~ture, r~ sponsible fashion. All dls~lpllnary polI cies in effect on the IrVlng Campus
64
are also in effect on the Rome Cam pus . In addition, the Director of th~ Rome Program may institute such polI cies as are necessary for the effec tive operation of the Rome campus. Should disciplinary problems arise that result in the need to dismiss the student from the Rome campus grades of WP or WF will be assigned to the uncompleted courses (depending on the judgment of each instructor co~ cerning the student 's performance In course work). The student will not be permitted to continue studies on ~he Irving campus until the succeeding semester. No refunds for tuition, fees, room and board , or travel expenses will be made (unless the student or the University is eligible to receive a refund from a third party in connec tion with travel expenses) .
Departments and Courses of Instruction
Department of Art Chairman and Professor Novinski; Professor H. Bartscht; Associate Professor Strunck; Assis tant Professors Hammett and Lavatelli; Visiting Professor, Norbert-Schultz
The Art Department strongly em phasizes the balanced liberal arts cur riculum of the University. It holds that this background, including studies in art history and criticism, provides es sential direction and stimulation for the UD art major. In addition, the Department views the study of the visual arts, particular ly at the undergraduate level, as an interdisciplinary pursuit. Within the ma jor there are five areas which a stu dent may pursue with some intensity and from which he is encouraged to elect courses to inform and extend his own direction. These are ceramics, commercial or general design, paint ing, printmaking, sculpture. The stu dent may also qualify for the all-level certificate in the teaching of art. The major program, whatever the media, is a careful balance between free dom and direction and develops in the following manner.
The freshman takes the History of Art and Architecture and basic draw ing along with other University aca demic requirements. In the sopho more year more fundamental work in design and figure drawing is required along with the first major studio. Dur ing one semester of the sophomore year, the art major usually participates in the University's Rome experience, preferably in the Fall. By the junior year, the art major is intensely involved in a major studio and elective studio work while also taking one course per semester in advanced art history. The unusual ar chitecture of the Haggerty Art Center, encourages this involvement and com munication. The long open hours of the Art Center, the possibility for inde pendent study courses, the require ment of the senior exhibition, the pres ence of graduate students, the stimu lation provided by on-campus and
65
Dallas-Fort Worth area exhibits and collections, visiting artists and lecturers - all these construct the real envi ronment needed for growth in the arts. In the senior year the art major prepares for the major exhi~ition a~d comprehensive through senior studio and seminar. Reviews and critiques are a regular part of this year. Whatever the area or media, the department seeks to give the student basic principles-not merely standard solutions - so that he has the train ing, jUdgment, and flexibility to per form competently in the field or go on to successful graduate work.
Basic Requirements for the Bachelor of Arts Degree in Artall studio areas 44 credits including 12 in art histo ry (6 advanced), 30 in studio cours~s with 15 credits being in one studio area (12 advanced beginning studio, two intermediate studios, and two se nior studios); 6 credits of electives are required in other studio experi ences outside the core studio require ments of Drawing I and II, Human Figure, and Design . In addition, two semesters of participation in senior seminar are required (1 credit per semester). It is recommended that the art ma jor take Esthetics for his Philosophy elective and that he seek electives in other departments appropriate to his discipline and other interests. Review Structure
In the mid Spring of the junior year the work of the art major is reviewed by the entire art faculty. The work is again reviewed in the late Fall of the senior year and the decision is made whether or not the student may be allowed to prepare for the senior exhibition . 66
Comprehensive Examination
In the final semester of undergrad uate study the art major must pass a written examination on the history and philosophy of art . Senior Exhibition
In the final semester of study the studio art major must present an ex hibit containing representative work done in studio courses during the senior year. The exhibit is to be se lected, designed and constructed by the student and will be judged by the faculty of the department. A slide rec ord of the exhibit must be filed with the department, and the department may select on piece to be held on loan for one year. The student who emphasizes art history must complete a major paper on some modern artist and must give a public presentation of the topic.

Area of Design The Department of Art has tradi tionally offered an area of concentra tion in design. The area is currently under review with revision planned to be completed for 1986-1987.
Pre-Architecture Whenever possible the pre-archi tecture student should take addition al work in Mathematics, Science, and Art (particularly in Sculpture, Art Met al , and Ceramics which will introduce him to ~arious materials and impor tant design subtleties) . The following recommends a valu able sequence for those who will trans fer. The second semester of the soph omore ye~r includes the probable Rome offenngs. Students who wish to con:plete .an undergraduate major at UD In design or science before going on to graduate work in architecture may wish to rearrange the following sequence of the first two years.
Programs Leading to Teaching Certification in Art for the State of Texas Along with the Art major a student may qualify to teach in grades 6-12 or work towards an all level certifica tion . Other students may wish to use the Art major, or the appropriate num ber and kinds of Art credits, to pre pare to teach in grades 1-8 or 8-12. Some combinations may require sum mer study in order to complete the program in four years . Because of the variety of options and the need for careful sequencing of both Art and Education courses the student should consult both departments as to specific requirements.

2310. Basic Ideas of Astronomy 2311. Basic Ideas of Physical Science 2312. Basic Ideas of Biological Science 2313. Basic Ideas of Chemical Science
Department of Chemistry Chairman and Professor Towne; Associate Pro fessor Eaker; Assistant Professor Hendrickson; Visiting Associate Professor of Chemistry, Smith.
The Chemical Sciences are a di verse group of studies which range from the very practical aspects found in our daily lives to the highly theoret ical treatment of chemical systems by the methods of Quantum Mechan ics. The formulation of fragances: syn thesis of polymers, drugs, and dyes: analyses of ores, foods , and pesti cides : study of air pollution and envi ronmental hazards: and the calcula tions of energy values of molecular orbitals are some examples of the scope of Chemistry. Chemistry deals with the study of matter, its properties and transformations, and with the fac tors underlying changes of these sub stances . It is a central science - be cause its principles underlie not only the practical but also nearly every study wherever matter is concerned. The study of Chemistry has intrinsic value for Chemists, Bio-chemists; a vast array of Biomedical Specialists - and to those interested in the fun damental nature of matter. The Chemistry curriculum is de signed to offer its majors a broad knowledge of both theoretical con cepts and practical skills and infor mation. The Chemistry program is nec essarily rigorous and critical, but at the same time offers a maximum of individual student participation. The curriculum stresses participation. The curriculum stresses laboratory manip ulative skills: a "hands-on" approach
by the student to the use of modern analytical instrumentation; student ex perimental design and research; stu dent seminar and literature student seminar and literature survey; com puter utilization in Chemistry by the student for data analysis and compu tation. Two degree programs are offered by the Chemistry Department in or der to meet the diversity of career objectives of its majors. The Bachelor of Arts deg ree pro gram is recommended for those stu dents interested in secondary educa tion science teaching and for those interested in a career in the health care related professions (medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, etc.) and the paramedical laboratory special ties . It is important that the student consult closely with his department advisor about his program, particu larly in the selection of proper elec tives to satisfy entrance requirements of the various professional schools . The prospective secondary school teacher will also consult with the De partment of Education. The Bachelor of Science degree is recommended for those majors who seek employment as a professional chemist or for those who intend to study Chemistry in graduate school. This program will involve some sum mer work in order to fulfill the require ments in four years.
79
A program leading to the Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry has been jointly developed between the De partments of Chemistry and Biology. The Biochemistry program builds
upon University of Dallas core re
quirements and a joint program be
tween the departments of Chemistry
and Biology. Basically, it requires 12
credits in addition to that normally
stipulated for the B.A. in chemistry or
biology, i.e ., 72 credits of chemistry,
biology, math, physics rather than 60 .
The program cannot be completed within the regular four year academic sequence unless the student has ad vanced placement in some areas and spends a summer in research or study. New students to the University, who participate in the summer chemistry institute, can accelerate their program by completing the general chemistry requirement before their first regular semester through participation in the John B. O'Hara Summer Science Institute.
The John B. O'Hara Chemical Sciences institutes Providing an intensive experience in chemical sciences, the Institute awards eight credits in General Chem istry. It involves the student in class room and laboratory work, seminars, and various extracurricular activities of the University of Dallas summer session. Students eligible for the pro gram are those who will be freshmen at the University in the Fall. Those selected for the Institute normally re ceive a scholarship covering room, board, and tuition. Applications should be made before May 1. University students of junior stand ing should contact their departmental chairman regarding the research pro gram in the O'Hara Summer Institute.

Constantin Scholars Program
The Constantin Scholars Program offers exceptional students the op portunity to pursue an inter-disciplinary curriculum. A Constantin Scholar's de gree plan will combine selected de partmental offerings with independent study under the direction of a per sonal committee . Students are admit ted into the program only on the ba sis of an excellent academic record and a strong proposal for an inter disciplinary project. Applicants to the program should ordinarily have a grade-point average of at least 3.5 and sophomore standing. No student may be admitted to the program later than the first semester of his junior year. Continuation in the program re quires a grade-point average of at least 3.3 in any semester. A Constantin Scholar proposal must meet a number of requirements. First, it must have both a clearly delimited central topic and that comprehensive ness characteristic of liberal educa tion. Second , the proposal must fall within an area that can be well super vised by the University's faculty. Third, it must demonstrate that the proposed
work cannot be better done wtihin the structure of a departmental major. A Constantin Scholar must, of course, fulfill the University requirements that constitute the Core Curriculum and the minimum credits required for the degree; he must also frequently do more than would be required in a 'double-major'. A complete proposal will contain as appendices an outline of courses to be taken, a preliminary bibliography, and suggestions for mem bers of the supervisory committee. Applications for admission to the Constantin Scholar program are made to the Dean of the College, who ap proves acceptable applications and appoints the committee. The committee supervises the Con stantin Scholar's course of study. It insures the integrity of the program and administers an appropriate com prehensive examination in the fall of the student's senior year. The chair man of the committee directs the stu dent in writing a senior essay, which must be successfully defended be fore the whole committee during the spring semester of the senior year. 85

iThe Study of Drama A person committed to the study of theater within the framework of a lib eral education must be prepared to work toward two goals: first, a thor ough competence in the basic skills of dramatic expression and interpre tation; and, concurrently, a view that comprehends dramatic art as it re lates to, expresses, and extends the surrounding culture. The development of this twofold ca pability is the aim governing the struc ture of the Department of Drama's major program: the student's balance of course work and continuing practi cal development in University Thea ter productions is closely coordinat ed with his overall experience of the university and the demands of the core curriculum. The undergraduate major in Drama serves as a foundation for graduate study of the subject, professional work in theater and mass media, a teach ing career in either elementary or sec ondary education; or, by proper choice
of electives, graduate work in foreign language, English literature, dramatic literature, journalism, communication, or comparative literature.
The University Theater The University Theater is an extra curricular organization, under the di rection of Drama Department faculty, which presents a series of major pro ductions annually. While each production's acting com pany and technical crew is composed of students from every University pro gram, those pursuing the course of study in drama have found that this opportunity to put their theoretical knowledge into exciting and challeng ing practice is essential to their growth in this field. The goal of the University Theater is to provide the people of the Univer sity of Dallas with a repertoire of pro ductions representing the most stim ulating of world drama's artists, forms, and visions.

Department of Economics Chairman and Assistant Professor Bostaph; Assistant Professors Davis and Ebeling; Visiting Assistant Professor Emami.
Economics is the discipline con cerned with the study of choice un der conditions of scarcity. "Scarcity" refers to the fact that the resources available to individuals are more lim ited than the uses to which individu als desire to direct them . Economics thus studies goal-di rected human action in those situa tions where the achievement of goals is neither assured nor without cost. From such studies come theories that provide explanations of economic problems and suggest policies for their solution . The Economics Department provides a rigorous introduction to economic theory combined with applications of theory to a variety of public issues. Theoretical explanations of business decision-making in free and controlled markets, of political and economic decision-making in various legal frame works, and of many of the ordinary choice situations individuals face ev ery day, are presented and critically examined. The Department is committed to the proposition that an understanding of economic theory is a necessary prerequisite to the intelligent evalua tion of social ethics, social problems, and public policy. Major emphasis is placed on studies of the market econ omy.
Course Requirements for a Major in Economics Economics 1311, 2312, 3320, 3325, 3326, 3327, 3329, 4359, and three ad ditional upper level courses. Math 1404, Calculus I, is required and should be completed by the end of the freshman year.

The Five Year "Through Plan" The Five Year Through Plan pro gram is an innovation in education for business which prepares students for the rapidly changing and continually expanding concerns of the contem porary business world. The design of the "thru-plan" al lows a student to complete the nor mal six year sequence (four years undergraduate, two years MBA) in five years, including one full time sum mer session. A complete explanation of this approach is given under the Through Plan section of this bulletin. Because of the natural affinity be tween the theory of economics and the practical application of business, the combination of an undergraduate degree in Economics and a graduate degree in Management is a popular choice for University of Dallas students.

Teacher education demands not only sound academic but also strong pro fessional preparation. The objectives of this professional preparation vary slightly from one program to another. Basically, this sequence is designed to help each prospective teacher re late his specialization to the general objectives of elementary and second ary education and to the objectives of other curricular specializations. Op portunities are provided to help the prospective teacher develop profes sional attitudes and to gain an under standing of education in the broad sense. The United States, because of its multi-ethnic origins, contains many multi-cultures. Schools in our society have been given the responsibility of transmitting culture . Knowledge of these has become an increasingly comprehensive part of teacher edu cation. The Department of Education incorporates the pluralistic nature of our society in all classes and pro grams. The full recognition of the var ious diversities is given serious con sideration. The acceptance of one's own culture and of other people's culture is basic to the development of a sense of cultural pluralism and is an enriching and rewarding concept imperative to teacher education . Psychological concepts relating the nature of the student and principles of learning are stressed; the various
facets of the developments of the student are also considered in rela tion to learning . Various methods and techniques of teaching are studied and evaluated in class; observed in actual classroom settings; and are tried in the period of directed teach ing under the guidance of experi enced supervising teachers in ac credited schools . Briefly, then, the objective of pro gram is to help prospective teachers become responsible, articulate teach ers with strong academic prepara tion, professional attitudes, and a lev el of competence that meets the demands of the classroom. The courses offered in the Depart ment of Education are planned within the objectives of the University of Dallas to meet standards for teacher education and certification established by the Texas Education Agency. Any student interested in teaching in another state should make this known to his advisor no later than the end of the sophomore year so that program adjustments can be made. Information about teacher certifica tion requirements in other states is on file in the Education Department. Students interested in eventual grad uate study in education and adminis tration should consult the interdepart mental programs leading to the M.A. listed under the Braniff Graduate School.

Pre-Directed Teaching Experience In pursuing the goals of teacher education the preservice teacher has the opportunity to observe and aid students in the learning process : Ed ucation 3101, 3102, elementary; Edu cation 3111, 3112, secondary. The preservice teacher is afforded the op portunity to observe and aid the class room teacher functioning as stimulator, diagnostician, prescriber, and model in the art of teaching. Courses relat ed directly to principles and ap proaches are designed to balance theory and application whenever fea sible. Students enrolled in courses having a field based experience are required to have a tuberculin test .
Education Seminars The history of American education clearly reveals that each generation of teachers must become increasing ly more knowledgeable concerning issues essential to a democratic soci ety. With such a goal before teacher education, the Department of Educa tion at the University of Dallas institut ed a series of seminars dealing with two major issues: The Teacher and the Law,' The Teacher and the MUlti Cu Itu railEd ucationally Exceptional Stu dent. The seminars are conducted by visiting authorities from those areas of concern.
Directed Teaching Successful completion of Directed Teaching is a requirement for all ma jors in Education and non-Education majors who desire certification. It may be taken only in the senior year. Stu dents who have received a 0 or F in the required Education or specializa tion course may not take Directed Teaching until the course has been repeated and grade of C or higher obtained or special arrangements with the Department Chairman are made. Applications for Directed Teaching
should be filed with the Coordinator of Directed Teaching no later than the middle of the semester immediately prior to the desired assignment. Ap proval will be restricted to students with the following qualifications : 1. A grade point average of 2.3 overall and 2.5 in the teaching specialization(s) or teaching field(s) and Education courses. Removal of all incomplete grades in previous courses. 2. Completion of at least three fourths of the courses in the stu dent's teaching specialization(s) or teaching field(s) and at least nine credits in Education for sec ondary teachers and at least twenty-one credits in Education for elementary teachers. 3. Two acceptable recommenda tions, one from a professor in the student's academic field, the other from a faculty member of the Education Department. These forms are to be forwarded to the Coordinator of Directed Teaching. 4. In order to accommodate the Directed Teaching time required by the option selected, the stu dent must plan ahead in consul tation with the Department Certi fication Officer. The student may not take more than eighteen cred its, including Directed Teaching, during the semester of the Di rected Teaching experience. 5. Submission of a practicing phy sician's statement attesting to sat isfactory health (including results of a tuberculin test) and physi cal adequacy. Directed teaching is not required of those students who have two or more years of verified, successful teaching experience in an accredited school. In this case, the student must elect six hours of upper division Edu cation coursework as a substitute. Let ters from the student's supervisor(s)

Kappa Delta Pi Comprehensive Examination In the spring of the senior year education majors and non-majors seek ing certification must pass a written and oral examination consisting of questions in the history and philoso phy of education and in principles and approaches of the education dis cipline. The examination committee includes faculty members representing the areas of the student's undergrad uate academic curriculum. Several states require teachers to take the national Teacher Examina tion (NTE) in order to be certified. Details about the NTE may be obtained from the Administrative Assistant to the Department of Education.
Residence Requ irements No candidate will be recommended for certification unless he has com pleted at the University of Dallas the equivalent of one semester's work (at least twelve credits) at a satisfactory level. This requirement applies to grad uate students who want only to com plete requirements for certification at the University.
Credentials and Placement Teacher certification is not automat ic. Each candidate must complete certification forms with the Depart ment of Education certification officer the last semester prior to graduation. The officer represents the Department in recommending candidates for cer tification to the Texas Education Agency. All certification students, majors and non-majors, are required to have a personnel placement file with the De partment. The 'file must be completed prior to graduation. Forms may be 100

The Study of Literature Poetry (the ancient word for the totality of verbal art) constitutes a dis tinct mode of knowledge and a reli able access to truth . With respect to the kind of wisdom that governs hu man conduct, poetry promotes a grasp of reality superior to other ways of knowing in its combination of imme diacy, lucidity, practicality, sensitivity to refinements, capacity to shape the affections, and adequacy to the whole. This conviction guides literary study at every level of the curriculum pur sued at the University of Dallas. The program in literature provides a coor dinated sequence of course that mark the stations of a quest for poetic un derstanding. Teachers and students seek to learn what the best of the poets know about the character of reality. In undertaking this mutual ef fort in learning, students and teach ers are related as beginning and ad vanced students of their common masters , the poets.
The Constantin College Curriculum Undergraduate courses in literature
answer to two guiding principles : first, continuous study of the greatest works of the literature of the West in the effort to appropriate a tradition that ought to be possessed by every edu cated person ; second, intensive study of the literature of England and Amer ica for the sake of acquiring the heri tage proper to the English-speaking peoples and as the means to com plete mastery of a language. The two principles are interdependent: one best learns English by knowing its best literature, and one best knows the English poets when one can measure them against those masters and ri vals in European literature whom they themselves acknowledge . Familiarity with the tradition promotes an aware ness that the whole of literature com prises an order in which every poem from Homer's onwards exists simul taneously with every other. Moreover, one appreciates what can and what cannot be known of literature written in foreign languages when one comes to know thoroughly the resources of one's native tongue. The two purposes of acquiring the European tradition and of mastering English literature are reflected in the Literary Tradition Sequence and the Major Program.
107
The Literary Tradition The study of the great imaginative works of the Western tradition con tributes a sizable portion of the Uni versity's core curriculum because it is central to the University's purpose of cultivating moral and intellectual excellence. Whatever his major, ev ery student is required to take all four courses of The Literary Tradition. The sequence introduces the student to the classics of the West and, thereby, to the major models and themes of human action, experience, and un derstanding. These courses combine with studies in other disciplines to make a coherent intellectual and imagi native whole . They further self-knowl edge by encouraging the student to know himself in the light of what the best minds have thought human beings are and ought to be . In the first two years of the student's college career, the Literary Tradition core provides a moral focus for discovering the terms upon which one may assume respon sibilities within a community. For a large part of the subject of many literary works is the portrayal of com munities living out the convictions shared by their members, and the heart of heroic poetry is the depiction of the efforts of singularly gifted men to exercise their virtue in a way that benefits their city while fulfilling them selves. The beginning student, as yet ten tative in approaching the intellectual life, may learn that a personal quest for truth is analogous to the heroic enterprises of Achilles, Hector, Odys seus, Aeneas, and Beowulf. From the heroic models he may come to ad dress the challenges he presently encounters with something of that har mony of boldness and modesty dis played by the traditional heroes. The first-year student may also learn to approach the epic poet's wisdom concerning the character of human achievement in a world which sum 108
mons men to recognize the claims of
city, of ancestors and progeny, of wom an, of the divinities, of nature in both its bounty and limiting austerity. By year's end the student is prepared to reflect upon those differences in the conception of human excellence and world order that come to sight once the Christian epic poet envisions di vine grace perfecting nature. The second year introduces trage dy and comedy - two perennial gen res of Western Iiteratu re - and the novel, the one literary form exclusively confined to the modern era. From a study of the tragedians of Greece, of Marlowe and Shakespeare, and of modern playwrights, the student can grasp how man has been defined in his "frail majesty" by tragic drama tists. In the comic writers of Greece, Medieval Christendom, and Elizabe than England, one may see that trag ic emphasis upon individual virtue un der the pressure of painful limits finds an answer in comic celebration of those powers human, and sometimes divine, that heal broken communities and restore wholeness to individual lives. Skepticism regarding the prem ises and resolutions of traditional trag edy and of comedy may account for the decline of both genres in the mod ern era and for the consequent emer gence and dominance of the novel. In the most accomplished novelists of the nineteenth and twentieth cen turies, the student confronts works which undertake to combine tragic and comic actions, 'fictions which of ten allot a tragic plot to one set of characters and a comic plot to an other. He will also see in the novels portrayals of societies negotiating the thoroughgoing changes effected by modern economics, technology, edu cation and politics - a world quite close to our own in local detail as well as in its governing moral and intellectual tendency. The second year student thus learns to take his stance toward his own day from authors aware
of the present yet also aware, as he has come to be, of what deserves to be preserved of the past . An under standing of the present that includes a knowledge of standards not con fined to contemporary ones is the end for which the sequence of courses aims. The courses that make up the Liter ary Tradition core depend upon a rigorous program of composition. The writing assignments are exclusively interpretive, requiring careful docu mentation from the works the student reads; they are judged by their suc cess in elucidating and critically ad
dressing the poems under considera tion . Because the student is occupied with the greatest writers the West has produced, he learns to respect ex cellence in the use of the language. His own writings are expected to show sophistication in style and argument. He will resubmit corrected essays that answer to exacting criticism . Because he reflects upon the most important issues of living and knowing, he learns to elevate his thought and language, to demand of himself precision in the use of words, to cultivate the lan guage he has come to know, and to guard it against his own worst instincts.
109
The Major Program Advanced courses for English ma jors aim at deepening the understand ing of literature, thereby confirming the student's dedication to poetry as a mode of knowing . The same princi ples of attentive care in reading and critical interpretation in writing that guide study in the core also animate the program for majors . The theme implicit in the Literary Tradition se quence also carries over to the ad vanced courses: students learn to con front the alternative understandings of man, society, nature, and the di vine offered by the major poets . Now, however, the subject of inquiry is pri marily the tradition of English and American writers . By studying the lit erature of the English language, the major grounds himself in his most immediate heritage. The sequence of advanced offerings is prevailingly chronological so that the student may participate in the authors' reflections back upon their predecessors , and so that the student may be prepared to appreciate the revolutionary char acter of literature produced after the great divide of Romanticism. As distinct from the range of elec tives in world literature, the courses in the British and American tradition are distributed among the recognized periods of literary history. Each of the periods embraces major poets who are , in fact, the proper subject of the course . Minor poets are studied for what they may contribute to one's understanding of human things through their occasional superior poems. Lit erary history, as such , is decidedly subordinate to the principal end of grasping what the most capable poets understand concerning the important issues of thought, feeling, and con duct. Hence, whatever their historical designations, courses move through local and temporal considerations to a reflection upon universal questions implicit in the poetry. 110
Two projects requiring independent study supplement course-work in the major. In the junior year the student pursues research in the complete can on of a single lyric poet. The project culminates in an oral examination be fore the faculty in which the student demonstrates mastery of the poems and of the scholarship and criticism devoted to the poet as well as critical assessment of the poet 's stature, his place within the literary tradition , and his contribution to the poetic under standing of reality. In the senior year the English major concludes a course in twentieth-century literature and lit erary criticism with a public lecture in which he presents and defends his findings from a research project on an important literary question . The Se nior Project, following a comprehen sive examination, constitute the stu dent's matriculation in the study of literature at the University and allows public profession of the fruits of a liberal education focused by training in a discipline.

The University offers major programs in 'French, German, and Spanish. Greek and Latin are part of the Clas sics major program. Italian is offered through the intermediate level. The University of Dallas requires the successful completion of language 2311 and 2312 or above of all stu dents. Students who have completed at least two years of a language in high school and who wish to continue in that language will be advised, through placement interviews during freshman orientation, of the level for which to register. Some advanced students may sat isfy the University language require ment by successfully completing one semester of an upper-division level language course. Those who wish to begin a new language, or who are advised to be gin at the freshman level, select lan guage 1301-02, to be followed by intermediate language 2311-2312. Both courses are necessary to satisfy the language requirement at the interme diate level. Credits received for the elementary level will not be included in the 120 needed for graduation, except as a second language pursued at the Uni versity of Dallas.
The Classics Program The study of Classical languages and literature is an integral part of liberal education. The ancients teach us that to think well we must be free of ignorance and that the "freeing ,arts" encourage thoughtful inquiry into ourselves and the world around us. Language and thought affect one an other. The more we cultivate the tradi tional arts of language - grammar, rhetoric, and dialectic or reasoning through speech - the better we train ourselves to .think clearly and act wisely. The first and most profound inquir ies into human nature and the rela tionships among thought, speech, and deed appear in those great works of Greek and Roman antiquity which have decisively influenced our western tra dition and continue to have a power ful effect to this day on our ways of thinking, speaking and acting. Through the study of Classical languages and literature a student begins to gain direct access to the wisdom of the ancients and hence a deeper under standing of himself as a member of an intellectual and moral community that transcends time and place.
115
On the Elementary and first Inter mediate levels the beginning student is most of all concerned with learning the language well, for the study of language can be mind forming in it self. The student becomes more aware of the variety of language structures , of differences and similarities in thought and in expression. As the student's knowledge of the Classical language grows , he finds that he also begins to express himself more clearly and pre cisely in his own language because of his increased understanding of the true meanings of the many words and phrases in English which are de rived from Classical sources. On the later Intermediate and Ad vanced Levels the student puts his knowledge of the language to work . He himself reads , studies and writes critically about the best writers of an tiquity. The writers studied in these courses (Greek-e.g. Plato and Soph ocles ; Latin - e.g. Cicero and Vergil) are chosen because of their concern with man's understanding of himself and of the ties that bind him to the d ivine and human worlds. As the stu dent reads and contemplates the works , his awareness of the impor tance of such matters for his own life increases , as does his appreciation for the beauty and clarity with which the ancient writers have dealt with the abiding questions of human exist ence . The Major Program The Classics major goes on to broaden and deepen his understand ing of the ancient thinkers . In this respect the Classics Prog ram pre sents the student with a wholeness and unity of outlook in the study of man and the world which one rarely finds in other studies. This is due largely to the nature of ancient thought and the attitude toward learning in antiquity, which the teachers in the program attempt to preserve and illu minate through course offerings in variety of areas : e.g. philosophy, his 116
tory, epic , and drama. The student soon learns that these areas are dis tinguished from each other in the courses mostly for the sake of conve nience, and that the distinctions we moderns make with regard to branches of learning are largely lacking among the ancients . Through his studies in the various areas, the classics major pursues his sense of the wholeness. At the end of the junior year the Classics major writes and presents orally to a faculty panel a research paper of 15-20 pages . The general topic of the paper is determined by the subject of one of the advanced literature courses in the major lan guage for which the student is en rolled during the second semester, although he chooses the specific top ic himself, in consultation with the professor for the course. The junior paper becomes part of the grade for that course . Through this project the student develops his ability to sus tain a lengthier and more complex argument than has usually been re quired in his advanced language classes . He reads widely in primary and secondary sources and gains experience in making critical judg ments of ancient thinkers and con temporary scholars . In the last undergraduate year the Classics major writes a senior essay in which he brings together the fruits of his experiences in the various courses to produce an original criti cal treatment of a major author or theme. He presents his work to an audience of faculty and students, his intellectual community, and reveals his increased knowledge of the classical languages and understanding of an tiquity as a whole through written es says in a Senior Comprehensive Exam ination. The Classics Program participates with the Education Department in pre paring the student for secondary school certification in Latin. Please consult the Education Department list ing for further details.
Besides the great works of classi cal antiquity, special courses intro duce the student to the study of. the Christian Greek and Latin tradition. It was mostly in Greek and Latin that the Christian message, early Chris tian theology and spirituality took lit erary shape and spread over the world: the study of these original sources is highly important for a deeper under standing of our culture. Language Requirement
Students wishing to fulfill the Core Requirement in Foreign Languages by studying Greek or Latin must take one course at the 3300 level or two courses at the 2300 level or above . If a student has had courses in one of the languages elsewhere than at the University of Dallas and wishes to use these courses towards satis fying the language requirement, he should consult with the Classics Pro gram Advisor before registering in order to determine at what level he should enter the sequence of lan guage courses here. Note well : Greek or Latin 2311 are prerequisites for Greek or Latin 2312 (or Latin 2314).
Basic Requirements for a Bachelor of Arts Degree 24 advanced credits: 18 of these must be in the chosen major language (Greek or Latin), selected from offerings at the 3000-level or above. Included in these 18 are: 1) the Advanced Grammar and Composition course in the major language (Greek 3324 or Latin 3324); 2) Senior Project (see under The Major Program) in the major language (Greek 4342 or Latin 4342). 6 additional credits are selected from offerings at the 3000-level
or above in the major or second language or, by permission of the Program Advisor, may be chosen from advanced offerings in literature, politics, philosophy, history, etc. Whenever possibly, the Classics faculty will assist the student in doing work in the related field in the appropriate language. The second language (Latin or Greek) must be completed through the intermediate level. Advanced courses are recommended . Reading knowledge of one modern language, preferably German , is de termined through an examination ad ministered by the Program Advisor in consultation with professors in the ap propriate language. The student must pass this examination no later than the end of the junior year. Junior Paper: (see under The Ma jor Program) written and presented orally at the end of the junior year. Comprehensive Examination: The student is responsible for major read ings in the Classics. In consultation with the Program Advisor he chooses six areas of study at the end of the junior year. The examination is ad ministered during the second semes ter of the senior year. Indication that the student has passed the compre hensive is recorded on the final tran script . *The following basic program outline assumes that the student is able to study Latin at the intermediate level in the freshman year. If he must begin with Latin 1301 or 1305, he should plan to take one or more courses during at least one summer session or interterm . If a student qualifies for Latin 2312 or an advanced course in the 1st semester of his 'freshman year, he will have more electives than the schedule indicates. The program outline also assumes that Classics Majors will participate in the Rome Program in the Spring se mester of the Sophomore year. 117

The Modern Languages The University of Dallas is an insti tution pursuing the universal values of a liberal education and relates its language requirements to the objec tives of such an educational program which proposes to acquaint the stu dent with all the major categories of intellectual activity. Therefore, the De partment emphasizes the humanistic values of language studies, it gives the student an experience which can be gathered in no other way by giv ing him the opportunity to see his own national culture through the ethi cal and aesthetic norms and values of another nation's culture. The strongest argument in favor of the study of a foreign language is to be found in its cultural benefit, but it also can be considered a "useful" subject. Every day more opportuni ties become available to the well educated man or woman with an au thentic command of a foreign language and with the skills necessary to func tion in the non-academic world : as interpreters and translators, as jour nalists in various capacities with firms operating overseas, as bilingual sec retaries, as journalists in international organizations such as the World Health Organization, in the Foreign Depart ment of large banks, and in the diplo matic world of Foreign Service. The basic language requirement may be satisfied in several ways. See "Basic requirements for a Bachelor of Arts Deg ree." Basic requirements for a Major in French German, or Spanish are 30 credits in upper-division courses in the same language; a second lan guage, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Latin or Greek completed at least through the intermediate level. Language 4348 (Senior Project): Out standing students may prepare an independent research paper in their senior year under the direction of their 122
faculty advisor. It will be presented at the end of the Fall semester. It is recommended that all language majors elect Art 1311 and 1312, The History of Art and Architecture, and Language 3330, Introduction to Lin quistics, or Education 5454. Recommended electives at the ad vanced level for French Majors in clude History 3326 ans 3327; for Ger man Majors History 3328 and 3329; for Spanish Majors, History 3320 and 3321. All advanced level courses are conducted entirely in the language, with the exception of 3330 (Intro. to Linquistics). The Foreign Language Program also cooperates with the Ed ucation Department in preparing the student for secondary school certifi cation in French, German, or Spanish. Please consult the appropriate Edu cation Department listings. Comprehensive Examination
During the spring semester of the senior year a comprehensive exam, oral and written, is taken by the stu dent. It consists of questions con cerning the literature and history of the culture created by speakers of a given language. The exam is con ducted in the major language. Pass ing of the exam Will be pre-requisite for graduation.

Department of History
Chairman and Professor Sommerfeldt; Associ ate Professors Swietek and Welch; Assistant Professors Jodziewicz and A. Wilhelmsen ; Visiting Assistant Professor McClure; Adjunct Instructor Diebel.
The Department offers introductory courses in Western Civilization and American Civilization to provide all students with an understanding of the distance man has come and the routes he has traveled. Advanced courses treat times and movements in suffi cient detail to permit close analysis, the development of theory, and to provide practice in techniques of the historian . In the senior year the history major undertakes an independent research project in which he or she must eval uate sources and materials, place problems in context, and make judg ments. Training in history is excellent back ground for graduate study in political science, public administration, jour nalism, teaching, and the law.
Requirements for a Major in History: Twenty-four advanced credits in his tory, including History 4347 and 4348. Six advanced credits must be in Ameri can History and six in European His tory. In the spring semester of the junior year the student selects a topic for the senior thesis. In the following fall he or she registers for History 4348 and is assigned to a professor who will supervise the development of the thesis. The student's compre hensive examination, given in the spring, is based upon the thesis.

Department of Mathematics
Acting Chairman and Professor Towne; Associ ate Professors Asner and Coppin; Assistant Professor Thomas; Adjunct Professors Bernard, Funnell, Pruiett, and Thompson.
The discipline of mathematics is defined as much by its methodology as it is by its content. Indeed, it is this methodology which unifies the differ ent areas of mathematics. The De partment of Mathematics seeks to in volve students at all levels in the thoughts and methods of mathemat ics in an active, alive way. The courses in the department are organized around three related areas: the core curriculum, service to other disciplines, and the major in mathe matics.
requirement. There are many areas of mathematics from which the stu dent may choose . Each of these areas deals with profound ideas that play an important part in our culture. The courses in Euclidean and Non-Eucli dean Geometry, Number Theory, and Introduction to Mathematical Thinking are designed explicitly for this pur pose. Introduction to Computer Sci ence and Calculus I, II, and III may also serve the purpose of the core requirement, as do the other more advanced courses in the department.
The Core Requirement: Much of mathematics has its roots in science, but the spirit of mathematical inquiry is not bound to any specific area. Mathematics is an important disci pline for every educated person. All students at the University of Dallas are therefore required to study some mathematics. The goal of the requirement is to strengthen the stu dent's imaginative and deductive pow ers through the discipline imposed by rigorous mathematical thinking. The precise use of language and logic characteristic of mathematics is de veloped in the courses which the stu dent may select to meet the core
Service To Other Disciplines: Math ematics and the sciences have cross fertilized each other for centuries. Phys ics, biology, chemistry and econom ics all draw on mathematical ideas and techniques . The precalculus calculus sequence is the primary av enue for learning these ideas . The knowledge of computation learned in Introduction to Computer Science can be applied in other disciplines where the computer can be used as a pow erful tool for scientific investigation . Many mathematical concepts grew out of problems in science, and the content of a number of upper level courses reflects this relationship. 137
The Major: The purpose of the ma jor is to immerse the student in the content and methodology of mathe matics as it is practiced by active mathematicians. The basic require ments in the major introduce students to the core ideas of the discipline. Electives within the major permit stu dents to pursue further areas of spe cial interest. The course in Linear Point Set Theory is an important bridge into the major. In that course, the student begins the immersion into the mathematical pro cess, and the foundation is built for later work in Analysis and other courses. Linear Point Set Theory, along with Algebraic Structures and Analysis I and II, highlight methods of proof, raising and settling of questions, de veloping precise definitions of con cepts, and thinking and writing con cisely in mathematical terms. The student who has immersed himself or herself in these mathematical ideas will be able to approach the other courses in the major with the per spective of the working mathematician. Mathematical concepts have a pro found influence on the world outside of mathematics. Equally important, the world external to mathematics has helped shape the discipline. It is im portant for the major to experience this interaction and to see the power and limitations of mathematics. Courses such as Calculus I, II, and III, Dif ferential Equations, Probability, Statis tics, Numerical Analysis and Introduc tion to Computer Science as well as the Physics requirements may aid in the development of this perspective. The major must integrate the expe rience gained from his or her various courses. A written comprehensive ex amination required of seniors is a ve hicle for this. Perhaps the best way to bring together the varied aspects of the program is by engaging in a re search project. This can be the cap stone of the work in the major. It allows integration of the material 138
learned in courses and gives the stu dent direct involvement with creative mathematics. A major in mathematics opens many doors. Majors may go on to graduate work in fields such as mathematics, computer science, statistics, physics, economics or biology. Students may pursue business, actuarial science, linguistics, medicine, law and teach ing. Most importantly, the major should allow the budding mathematician to see the world in a creative, beautiful and profound way. Advising: All students of the Uni versity are encouraged to seek ad vice from the Mathematics Depart ment concerning selection of mathe matics courses and proper placement. A placement exam is given for stu dents entering the precalculus-calculus sequence. Students considering a major in mathematics should consult with the
department, even if they are not sure
they wish to major in mathematics. A
faculty member can suggest courses
. that may help the student decide,
and would help the student progress
in the major if the student wishes to
pursue mathematics. Each major will have a faculty advi sor in the department. The student and the advisor will have an introduc tory conference to talk about the de partment and the math program, and to discuss the student's aims and goals . At the beginning of the junior year, the student and advisor will again meet to take stock of how the student is doing and where the student is going. At other conferences, the ad visor can help the student in course selection and post-graduate plans . It is imperative that all those who are intending to major in mathematics con tact the department for counseling at least once a semester before pre registration. Intersted students are invited to in quire further into the program by con sulting the faculty.

Department of Philosophy
Chairman and Associate Professor Wood; Pro fessor Wilhelmsen; Associate Professors Crosby, Hardy, and Murguia; Associate Professor Emeri tus Cain; Assistant Professors Lawrence and Sepper; Adjunct Professors Foltz, Lehrberger, Loscerbo and Muller
The Department of Philosophy is convinced that the candid inquirer, confronting the real anew for himself as he absorbs the heritage of Chris tian (and other) wisdom, can reach philosophic truth and penetrate it more and more deeply, and that he can thereby become a source of order in a time of chaos and bewilderment. Accordingly it does not suggest to the student that, though he should search for truth, he is forbidden to find it. It is in this spirit that the De partment offers its core curriculum courses , its history courses, and its advanced systematic courses . The Department offers its required courses with a twofold aim: to ac quaint the students with the main problems of philosophy and with the solutions proposed for them; and to engender in the minds of students the habits of philosophical thinking which will enable them to integrate their entire education. For its majors as well as for other students interested in deepening their philosophical education, the Depart ment has prepared a series of courses in the history of philosophy which, without overlooking non-Western tra ditions, span the entire Western tradi-
tion from the pre-Socratics to the con temporary scene. These are philosophy courses as well as history courses; students are expected to bring to bear upon the historical material the habits of thinking acquired in their "systematic" courses. These courses accomplish three purposes. First of all, they engage the students in a conversation with the great philoso phers, and this at once elevates and humbles. They also illuminate histori cal epochs as articulated philosophi cally by their best minds, and so enhance the student's humanistic cul ture. Finally, they not only point out dead end streets in philosophical spec ulation, obviating the need to repeat history's errors, but, more positively, they help the student to appropriate and grow in philosophic wisdom. Advanced courses in epistemolo gy, natu ral theology, phi losophy of sci ence, ethics, esthetics, and the many other areas further the same three goals. They seek to promote, not mere erudition, but above all the desire and the power to philosophize. More over, and importantly, they assist the student in his effort to locate himself within his own moment in time.

Physics is an active search for the fundamental nature of the physical world . Resting upon a broad empiri cal basis, physics continues to thrust man into the unknown. The objec tives of the Department of Physics center around developing in its stu dents a critical understanding of phys ical phenomena and a matching intu ition . The Department aims to prepare its students to challenge the future through submission to the discipline of the past and present. The curriculum combines a firm grounding in the liberal arts and in mathematics with a solid foundation in the sciences. A broad theoretical basis encompassing classical me chanics, electromagnetism, statistical physics, and quantum mechanics is supported by extensive laboratory experience in electronics, optics, atomic, and nuclear physics . Together the theoretical understanding of past achievements and hands-on lab ex perience form the core of the pro gram . Seminar courses in current top ics as well as courses in astronomy,
nuclear and particle physics round out the curriculum and introduce stu dents to modern questions . Students are encouraged to partici pate in the experimental and theoreti cal research programs of the Depart ment through either the John B. O'Hara Summer Science Institute or special studies courses. The research pro grams range from spectroscopy, mag netic cooperative systems, experi mental high energy physics, and elementary particle theory to concep tual foundations of science. These programs are supported by a well equipped machine shop and Univer sity computational facilities . An undergraduate degree in phys ics opens many doors to further stud ies in a variety of fields. Teaching, applied mathematics, engineering, or other related sciences are possible career choices though most of our graduates proceed to graduate pro grams and are well-prepared for re search in physics. 149

Department of Politics
Chairman and Associate Professor West; Pro fessor Sasseen; Associate Professors de Alvarez and Paynter; Visiting Professor Marini and Jeffrey; Lecturer Broyles
Politics is the activity of the polis (city), as athletics is the activity of the athlete. The polis, according to Aris totle, is the association whose pur pose is the complete life. Politics, therefore, includes all the activities whose end is the complete human life. Political philosophy is the reflec tion upon or the attempt to under stand the nature of these activities. Political science, therefore, as under stood at the University of Dallas, is a philosophical discipline concerned with the whole range of human actions to be found in the context of the polis. Specifically, the department has the following objectives: First: The general purpose of the Department is to promote a critical understanding of political phenome na, an understanding of the nature of political life and its relation to human life as a whole. Accordingly, courses are designed to present conflicting points of view on a great variety of important political questions. Sustained and systematic analysis of how phi losophers, statesmen, and poets - ancient as well as modern - have answered these questions enlarges intellectual horizons and cultivates an alytical and critical skills. Readings are therefore selected with a view to engaging the student in controversy, for controversy is of the essence in politics. Second: The Department seeks to promote enlightened and public-spir ited citizenship. This requires under standing of the principles and pur poses of our regime, as w~1I as some personal involvement in, or commit ment to, the larger political communi-
ty. One of the distinctive features of the Department is its emphasis on American statesmanship and the great controversies which have shaped the character of our people. The curricu lum attempts to relate the political, legal, and philosophical aspects of our heritage to contemporary ques tions. Third: Together with the other liber al arts, the Department seeks to pro mote civility. Civility requires, first, the capacity to appreciate what is to be said on diverse sides of an issue. Secondly, it requires a capacity to participate in serious dialogue, which in turn requires seriousness about the ends of learning and the ends of action. Finally, civility requires some degree of detachment from contem porary affairs, for total involvement in the present narrows and distorts our vision. Fourth: The Department seeks to preserve the great tradition of politi cal wisdom, theoretical and practical, against modes of thought which as sailor abandon it. This requires, of course, an understanding and critique of these hostile modes of thought. Fifth: The Department tries to pre pare some students for active politi cal life. This requires the study of politics from the perspective of the statesman as well as from the per spective of the citizen. Sixth: The Department seeks to pre pare some students for graduate study in political science, or for training in the professional fields of Law, Public Administration, City Management, Di plomacy, and Journalism.
153
Course Requirements for a Major in Politics The student who wishes to choose Politics for a major is required to take thirty-six credits in Politics, including Politics 1311, 2311, 2312, 3331, 3332, and 5300, and the comprehensive examinations . The Department also requires each student to take at least one course in American studies. The department advises the stu dent planning to major in Politics to consult with the Chairman concern ing his program of studies at the ear liest possible moment. The Politics Department recom mends Greek be chosen as the for eign language. If the student plans to go to graduate school, it is recom mended that French and German also be studied.

Department of Psychology
Chairman and Assistant Professor Kugelmann; Assistant Professor Churchill; Professor Ro manyshun; Visiting Professors: as announced.
The University of Dallas is a center of learning. The Psychology program is shaped by this concept of liberal learning in which students and facul ty together form a community of learners. The Psychology program is engaged in the enterprise of re visioning psychology. This task is approached through recovering the experiential basis of the discipline of psychology in the tradition of Western Culture. Such a broad and deep un derstanding of psychology delineates the value and limits of views which claim that psychology is the study of mind, or the science of behavior, or the interaction of mind and body, or the personal growth and enrichment of the person. The life of experience, action, and the appearance of the world form the material for psycholo gy. The recovery of perennial forms of experience and the description and reflection on various modes of expe rience are the appropriate domains of psychology. The original sense of the word psychology - the logos of soul- conveys this sense of the dis cipline . The program relies on this original sense of psychology as a discipline that serves soul to determine the man ner in which the soul has been formu lated in many different languages or schools of thought . Original writings of the most important figures of psy chological thought are read for their contributions to an understanding of soul in Western tradition . The concern for psychological tra-
dition provides a rich background for the imagination as psychology seeks to give attention to a wide range of experiences - dreaming, remember ing, sensing, psychopathology, lan guage, education, expression, devel opment, personality. This background also allows the relation of the disci pline of psychology to other disci plines such as art, drama, literature, and philosophy to emerge. Since psychology in this program is approached in its relation with cul ture, a concern for connections - be tween psychology and areas such as medicine, education, technology, ar chitecture, religion, science and law are an important part of the program . The psychological character of these activities of culture become particu larly apparent in times of breakdown. This comprehensive approach to psychology is termed phenomenologi cal because attention is given to ex perience rather than to explanations or theories of behavior. The approach is also termed depth psychology since attention is given to the deeper val ues of human experience which are carried by imagination and tradition. Because the attitude of the Psy chology program is one of learning, original reflection is as important as detailed scholarship. Active research and writing is expected of students; junior and senior research seminars provide the occasions for students and faculty to work in close associa tion. 157

Courses in Psychology 1311. Foundations of Psychology as a Human Science Psychology claims to be a science, but this claim conceals more than it reveals of human psychological life. A critical examination of this claim allows an initial development of the psychological attitude. A psy chological way of seeing and speak ing is developed with regard to things, others , and the human body. The claim of psychology to be a science is also discussed within the context of the crisis of contem porary culture. 3327. Child Growth and Development (Education 3327) This course is centered on the re covery of the particular character of the experience of the life of the child . Emphasis is placed on the description of phenomena such as thinking, speaking, play, expression and psychological reflection on these experiences in order to un derstand what it is like to live in the world of the child. Remembering and imagining are systematically explored as ways of developing a discriminated sensibility toward the life of the child . Observation is sys tematically explored as a way of attending to the actions of children understood on their own terms. This phenomenological approach to de velopment is related to significant theories of development such as those offered by Jean Piaget, Sig mund Freud, and Eric Erickson.
3328. Psychology of Adolescence (Education 3328) A consideration of selected themes as they related to the adolescent experiences, including rebellion, car ing, infatuation, peer group rejec tion, loneliness, and sexuality. Em phasis is placed on methodology of understanding these phenomena on their own terms and on psycho logical reflection which deepens the significance of these phenomena in relation to questions of culture. This phenomenological approach to adolescence is related to sig nificant theories of adolescence such as those offered by Harry Stack Sullivan, Anna Freud, and Erik Erickson. 3330. History of Psychology I An examination of the basis of the psychological tradition in the West. The Greek, Roman, and Medieval senses of soul are explored in myth, Pre-Socratic Philosophy, Classical Philosophy, as well as domains such as medicine, drama, art, and ar chitecture. The origins of psycho logical experience as an attitude toward the world and the order of the soul are described. The persis tence of these understandings of soul and their manner of appear ance in psychological inquiry is ex plored through original writings. 3331. History of Psychology II The emergence of an explicit psy chological tradition in the Renais sance- Modern West is examined. Particularly important are the cul tural achievements of science which attempt to reveal psychological life through systematic empirical meth ods and the emergence of depth psychology which continues the tra dition of psychology as a disci pline of the soul. These approaches to psychology are related to the activities of the culture of the peri od and the persistence of these understandings of psychological life are e)(amined . 3333. Junior Research Seminar Required of junior psychology ma jors, this course prepares the stu
dent in the basic concepts and language of contemporary scientif ic psychology. The student is pre sented with current systems and theories, and is exposed to tradi tional methodologies and research problems. The course prepares the student to write a major paper on the traditional literature concerning specific psychological phenomena such as memory, learning, percep tion, cognition, language, person ality, motivation, social behavior. The course also examines the place of a scientific study of psychological life in relation to the concerns of culture. 3334. Psychology of Language and Expression A phenomenological consideration of speaking is presented in relation to traditional psychologies of lan guage. The difference between lan guage and speech is described. The major emphasis of the course is on the styles of speaking; literal and non-literal modes of expres sion. A psychological understanding of metaphor and the metaphorical character of psychological speech is described. The relation of per ceiving, imagining, and speaking is also considered .

Department of Theology
Chairman and Professor Nardoni; Professor Balas, Associate Professors Batto, Carroll, Phan, and Rabay; Assistant Professor Foubert; Ad junct Professors Kereszty, Luby, and Stinson, Adjunct Lecturer Seitz.
Theology is "faith in search of un derstanding," a faithful listening to and a systematic-methodical articula tion of the message of the Word of God revealed by deeds and words first in Israel, culuminating in Jesus Christ, himself both the mediator and sum total of Revelation, and transmit ted in the living tradition of the Church . Admittedly our western civilization cannot be properly understood with out some knowledge of Christianity, which is both a basis and an integral part of our cultural heritage. The study of theology, however, is much more than an essential discipline in the lib eral arts education; it has a higher and more comprehensive aim. In re lating man and the world to their absolute origin and end, theology im parts an ultimate unity to our under standing of reality and helps us - as no purely human discipline can - to see and fulfill the meaning of our existence. The Theology Department contrib utes to the general educational effort of the University on the following lev els: a basic program of core curricu lum courses designed for all students, an undergraduate major program for those who plan to concentrate on theological studies; graduate programs (M.A., M.Div., M.R.E.) for those who
intend to cultivte theology in teach ing, priestly ministry, scholarship and other forms of professional activities.
Basic courses required for graduation The University requires for gradua tion 6 credits in theology. Normally, the required credits are earned in Theology 1310 (Understanding the Bi ble) and 2311 (Western Theological Tradition). All students are invited to make use of the available theology electives beyond the required mini mum.
The Major Program In Theology A coordinated sequence of ad vanced courses in Biblical Theology, History of Dogma, Dogmatic, Litur gical, and Moral Theology gives the student majoring in Theology a com prehensive initiation in the funda mental disciplines . Further advanced courses are offered as electives. Courses number 5000 through 5099, though taught on the graduate level, are open, with special permission, to qualified upper-division theology ma jors. 161
Requirements for a Major in Theology a) 36 credits in Theology, including
regularly Theology 1310, 2311,
3320 , 3321, 3324, 3325, 3326,
3327, 3328 or 3338, 3345, 3346,
and 4381 (Senior Seminar).
b) Theology 4381, taken in the senior year, requires the student to pre pare a major term paper giving evidence of his research abilities in the field. c) A comprehensive examination, oral and written, to be taken in the last semester of the senior year. The purpose of this examination is to test the candidate's: (1) general theological knowlege, (2) familiari ty with basic tools and methods of theological research, (3) ability to form sound theological judgments on current issues, and (4) ability to communicate his knowledge. A bibliographical guide and reading list distributed by the department to juniors majoring in Theology will help the student prepare for this examination, which is not simply a matter of course work, but of per sonal research and reflection.
Some background in the Latin and Greek languages is recommended for a major in theology. From among the modern languages the department rec ommends especially French and Ger man. The department recommends that
students majoring in Theology take
as their electives Phil. 4327 and 4328,
Phil. 4337 or 4338, and if possible
some additional philosophy courses
in consultation with the department.
A special plan is available for stu dents who, while majoring in Theolo gy, would like to obtain a teacher's certificate . 162

The Five-Year Through Plan To the Master of Business Administration
The student interested in a career in some facet of the complex world of business should be attracted to the University's "thru-plan" to the MBA. The Five-Year Through Plan Program is an innovation in education for busi ness which prepares its graduates for the rapidly changing and con tinually expanding concerns of the contemporary business world. Such changes, and the growing involve ment of business in all aspects of contemporary life, make even more important the business leader who possesses the background, creativi ty, and flexibility to adjust, judge, and foresee, i.e., to be a rational deci sion-maker. Consequently, an increasing num ber of firms are seeking graduates who have both a quality undergradu ate liberal arts preparation and a Mas ter of Business Administration; for it is this type of preparation which best prepares the future business leader to manage the concerns of modern business. Under this plan the student can complete both the undergraduate de gree in any major and the graduate degree in management in five years including one full-time summer. By making wise use of electives in the senior year, the undergraduate can have Lip to twelve credits accepted into the Graduate School of Manage
ment program. That is, a 49 credit graduate program becomes a 37 cred it program. The Graduate School of Manage ment offers seven programs leading to the MBA, i.e., seven areas of con centration: Business Management, In ternational Management, Engineering Management, Management Informa tion Systems, Acquistion and Govern ment Contract Management, · Health Services Management, and Industrial Management. Descriptions of these areas can be found under the GSM listings in the Braniff Graduate School section of this bulletin. Further details can be secured by writing directly to the Office of Admissions, Graduate School of Management. It will be evident that certain areas make natural combinations with par ticular undergraduate programs such as the foreign language major with the MBA International, mathematics with Information Systems, Economics with General Management and so forth . 22% of the students in GSM come from liberal arts or science back grounds. In order to ensure a smooth transi tion into the Graduate School of Man agement the student must secure ap proval for the thru-plan courses from GSM and his or her ma.jor depart ment. This should be accomplished before registration for the senior year. 165
BRANIFF GRADUATE SCHOOL
The history of the University of Dallas is closely linked with the names of Braniff and Blakley. These are perma nently enshrined with the William A. Blakley Library, the Braniff Graduate Building, the Braniff Memorial Tower, and the Braniff Graduate School. Senator William A. Blakley, lawyer, statesman, and industrialist, was a member of the first advisory board of the University of Dallas. Both Senator Blakley and Tom Braniff, founder of Braniff International Airways , had been vitally interested in private higher ed ucation. Before their deaths in 1954, Tom and Bess Braniff knew of plans for a proposed University of Dallas and had expressed hope that it would become a reality. Efforts to found the University captured the interest and support of Senator Blakley, who was devoted to the principles of private higher education and aware of the need for more educational centers of excellence in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The Blakley-Braniff Foundation was dissolved in 1964, with all of its as
sets going to carrying out its pur poses and objectives. Senator Blakley and the other directors of the Foun dation chose the University of Dallas for the site of the Braniff Graduate School as the highest and best trib ute to the memory of Tom and Bess Braniff in perpetuity and made a seven and-a-half-million-dollar grant for its establishment. The graduate school offered its first courses in 1966. The Braniff Gradu ate Building was completed in 1968, along with the mall and the Braniff Memorial Tower. In its Liberal Arts section the Braniff Graduate School houses several mas ter level programs and the interdisci plinary doctoral program in Philosoph ic Studies . The Graduate School of Management offers the Masters of Business Administration in seven dif ferent concentrations. For detailed in formation on these programs see the Liberal Arts and Graduate School of Management sections in this catalog and in special bulletins. 167
Financial Aid
Housing
For the promotion of scholarship and research the Braniff Graduate School administers several different forms of financial aid for graduate students: fellowships, scholarships, re search or project assistantships, and loans. Tuition scholarships are awarded annually on the basis of merit. Schol arships are renewed only after a fa vorable review of the student's prog ress. Other limitations on scholarship funds are noted at the time of award. Assistantships depend upon the needs of the department and qualifications of the student. Loan programs in clude l\Jational Defense Student Loan Program, the USAF Loan Programs and the Texas Opportunity Loan Pro gram, which is restricted to Texas residents. Eligibility for federal and state fi nancial aid will follow graduate school policies on academic continuation . A student is given one semester proba tion. During this probationary semes ter financial aid is received . The stu dent must maintain at least a grade point average of 3.0 during the pro bationary semester to continue eligi bility for 'financial aid. If the student does not make the required grade point average, the ' student will lose eligibility to participate in federal or state financial aid programs for one year. To reinstate financial aid, the student must be making satisfactory progress during that year. For pur poses of financial aid a full time grad uate student is one who carries 9 credits or more; half-time is six credits. Application forms for fellowships, scholarships, and loans may be ob tained from the Financial Aid Office or the Graduate Office. Interest in assistantships should be indicated by personal letter to the department concerned.
Campus housing is available for unmarried graduate students. Apart ments and houses, in all price ranges, are plentiful in the Irving-Dallas area.
168
Employment The student employment section of the Financial Aid Office helps place students and their husbands and wives in jobs, on and off campus. Academic Discipline The policies of the Braniff Graduate School governing academic discipline parallel those of the Constantin Col lege of Liberal Arts, mutatis mutandis. Specific regulations affecting many features of academic life are found in the publications of the Graduate School and in the calendars published each semester by the Graduate Office. Any student's continuation in the Graduate School is at the discretion of the Graduate School and his major department. The Graduate School nor mally requires an average of B or better in all work taken as a graduate student. The Braniff Graduate School re serves the right to dismiss at any time any student whose academic standing, financial indebtedness to the University, or conduct it finds undesirable. Academic Honesty Plagiarism (presenting someone elses work as one's own) and cheating (obtaining assistance from others dur ing examinations, or providing such assistance) are extremely serious of fenses. All students are responsible for familiarizing themselves with the policy on Academic Honesty as de tailed in the undergraduate section of this bulletin.

Admission Regular Admission Inquiries and application materials for all graduate programs should be sent to the Graduate Office. Applica tion materials include two letters of reference and transcripts from all in stitutions attended, as well as the spe cific materials required by the various departments as listed on the applica tion form . The Graduate School strong ly recommends that applicants take the General Test portion of the Grad uate Record Examination, but it does not require the test for admission. Students with mixed records, howev er, are particularly encouraged to sub mit test scores as additional evidence for a decision on admission. Each application is reviewed by the proposed major department and the Graduate Dean. Applications are reviewed in five monthly 'rounds' beginning on Febru ary 15 and ending with June 15. In order to be considered for the first round, all elements of an application must be received by February 15. Applications received after that date will be considered in the next month ly round so long as there are places available in the program. Applications that are incomplete as of June 15 will not be reviewed for regular admis sion in the next fall semester. The applicant must possess a bach elor's degree or its equivalent. He should have an undergraduate major or equivalent evidence of suitable background for entering the proposed field . The concept of graduate edu cation held by the University of Dallas assumes a broad background. De partments will determine the adequa cy of preparation, with the approval 170
of the Dean of the Braniff Graduate School, and the applicant may be required to enroll for undergraduate courses to remedy deficiencies in oth er subjects as well as that chosen for graduate study.
Conditional Admission A student who has not submitted GRE scores or who has deficiencies in his undergraduate preparation may be admitted conditionally, but in the latter case he must present substan tial evidence of capacity to perform at the graduate level.
Admission as an International Special Student Students from other countries whose work is difficult to evaluate or whose degree goals are not firmly deter mined may be admitted as "Interna tional Special Students." Such stu dents are not considered regular graduate students until such time as their department formally recommends a change in their status. However, at that time, the department may indi cate that part or all of the student's previous work at the University of Dallas should be accepted for gradu ate residence or for meeting depart mental requirements. Unless proficiency is otherwise dem onstrated, every foreign applicant whose native tongue is not English is required to take either the English Language Test given through the En glish Language Institute at Ann Arbor, Michigan, or the TOEFL Test of the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey. These tests are given in the student's home country and are normally the only certification of lan guage ability which the Graduate
School accepts. Unless one or the other of the tests has been taken at least three months before his pro posed date of enrollment, the student cannot be sure of having his applica tion processed in time for admission . Foreign students should also be aware of the tuition and living costs involved , as well as of the fact that the University has no . special funds for foreign students. Loan funds are not available since they are restructed to U.S. citizens. Admission as a Special Student
Applicants over 21 who have com pleted an undergraduate degree may be permitted to take certain graduate courses with permission of the de partment concerned . These students are not considered regular students until such time as their departments formally recommend a change in status. At that time, the student's department may indicate that part or all of his previous work at the University of Dallas should be ac cepted for graduate work. A special student may not be admitted to can didacy until he has been reclassified as a regular graduate student. Subject to the approval of the Grad uate Dean, a person of mature years who does not have a bachelor's de gree may be permitted to take courses as a special student.
Graduate School Requirements The Graduate School sets minimum standards for all graduate degrees. Each department establishes rules and requirements which supplement those of the Graduate School. The student is responsible for knowing all rules and requirements pertaining to the degree he seeks.
Requirements For the Master's Degree According to the University of Dallas concept of education, the Master's degree is a professional degree. There fore, no set number of hours consti tutes any given program; rather an acceptable proficiency in a sufficient scope of the discipline or profession constitutes the criterion for the de gree. A minimum of twenty-four course cedits, is required for the Master's degree. Specific departmental require ments must be consulted in each in stance with respect to programs lead ing to the master's degree and the course work required . Examination
As part of his M.A. degree program the candidate must pass a compre hensive examination administered by his major department, which may be oral, written, or both, at the option of his department. Eligibility for the comprehensive ex amination is determined by the de partment. It indicates that the stu dent's record is clear of incompletes and that he will satisfy degree re quirements by completing the work of the semester. Thesis
Where required, the candidate must present a thesis. (In some programs a project or exhibit is required in lieu of a thesis.) Languages
Proficiency in a foreign language is required, except where otherwise in dicated. It is suggested that a stu dent refer to the Institute Student Handbook and Departmental guide lines for specific language require ments. Students are expected to be familiar with the guidelines of the In stitute, the various Departments, and the Graduate Office . 171
Continuance in a Program
Every graduate student who has not yet reached degree candidacy is reviewed in the spring semester for satisfactory progress . A report of this review is sent to the Graduate Dean by the student's program director. A student whose progress is not satis factory will not be allowed to continue in the program. Transfer Credit
Some credit from earlier graduate work may be transferred after a stu dent has successfully completed his first full semester of work. In order to be transferred into the degree pro gram at the University, the earlier courses must be comparable to the University's courses and must have been taken within the previous six years . No more than six hours may ordinarily be transferred into a mas ter's program, although special limits apply to students in Theology who have already completed a program in divinity elsewhere. Transfers of credit are not automatic; some programs with special curricula rarely approve transfer petitions. Admission to Candidacy
A student is admitted to candidacy after he has completed all course work leading to the degree as well as individual departmental requirements excluding the thesis or its equivalent. At this time a faculty director for the student's further work is chosen by the candidate in consultation with the department chairman. A copy of the candidate's thesis proposal or its equiv alent (e .g ., a description of the candi date's proposed art exhibit), oapproved by the department chairman and faculty advisor must be supplied by the student to the Graduate Office to be kept on file. Time Limit
A Master's degree must be com
172
pleted within five years of admission to candidacy in the program unless otherwise stipulated in departmental requirements .
Requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree in the Institute of Philosophic Studies The Doctor of Philosophy degree is the highest conferred by the Univer sity. It is a research and philosophic degree indicating a profound com mitment to the interdisciplinary explo r~tion of philosophic thought, espe CIally the contributions to that tradition made by Christianity. Only students who have been liber ally educated i!l their undergraduate studies and who are sympathetic to the educational philosophy of the In stitute are accepted into the program. Residence
Three academic years beyond the bachelor's degree are normally re quired. Each candidate must spend at least one continuous academic year on campus as a full-time graduate student. Transfer Credit
Some credit from earlier graduate work may be transferred after a stu dent has successfully completed his first full semester work. The same general rules apply here as to mas ter's programs. No more than nine hours may ordinarily be transferred into a doctoral program. Language
Proficiency in two languages, usu ally French, German, Greek, or Latin, must normally be demonstrated by the candidate. With approval of the Graduate Faculty the candidate's de partment may allow a substitution for
one of these on the ground of greater pertinence to a student's program. In some programs, a successfully com pleted scholarly project in one for eign language may satisfy the re quirement. The language requirement may be satisfied in one of three ways . Specifics for each department may be found in the Institute Handbook.
Continuance in a Program Every graduate student who has not yet reached degree candidacy is reviewed in the spring semester for satisfactory progress. A report of this review is sent to the Graduate Dean by the student's program director. A student whose progress is not satis factory will not be allowed to continue in the program.
Qualifying Examination The student must take a Qualifying Examination in the semester after the completion of three semesters of full time work. The student's performance on the Examination must satisfy his program director and the examining committee that he is capable of con tinuing with doctoral studies.
Institute M.A. The M.A. degree may be awarded t6 doctoral students after the comple tion of the Qualifying Examination, 48 hours of couse work properly distrib uted, and one foreign language re quirement. It is the student's respon sibility to make appl ication for the Institute M.A. degree through the Reg istrar's Office.
hensive Examination in the semester following completion of all course work. This includes completing all outstand ing "I" and "T" grades . In exception al cases , special permission may be granted by the Graduate Dean to take the comprehensives in the second semester following the completion of course work. The Graduate Dean will appoint, for each candidate, an examining com mittee of five or more members of the graduate faculty, with the program director of the student's discipline as chairman . The time and place of the examinations are arranged by the Graduate Office. Success'ful comple tion of the Comprehensive Examina tion is recorded on the transcript.
Dissertation A dissertation of suitable quality and magnitude shall be submitted by the candidate , and after it is approved, a defense of the dissertation, open to the Graduate Faculty, must be made by the candidate. Detailed information concerning the formal requirements for preparation and filing of dissertations may be obtained from the Graduate Office and the department .
Time Limit All requirements for the Ph.D. de gree must be met within six years counted from the semester in which the student is admitted to candidacy in the Graduate School or the student will be deemed to have lost all resi dence credit.
Admission to Candidacy An applicant is admitted to candi dacy after he has successfully com pleted all program requirements through the Comprehensive Examination.
Comprehensive Examination The student must take the Compre
General Information Student Load The normal full-time load is 12 cred its per semester and 6 credits per summer session. A student enrolled for 9 credits of graduate work is con 173
sidered full-time. Courses carrying graduate credit are those numbered in the 6000 to 9099 range. Courses numbered 5000 to 5099, Senior-Graduate Courses, may be offered by the candidate in partial fulfillment of degree requirements. However, a maximum of twelve such credits is acceptable . 5000-5099 course descriptions will usually be found under the Constantin College of Liberal Arts listings. Holders of Research Assistantships, Fellowships, and Scholarships sup ported by the Graduate School are, in general, required to carry a full program of studies during their ap pointments. Students under this clas sification who have completed the re quired course work may, however, car ry programs consisting of three or more credits of thesis or dissertation research under the direction of their major department.
only where there is a good reason for the absence and a good prospect of the student's returning to the pro gram . A student who interrupts his course of studies without a leave of absence is considered to have re signed from the program and must re-apply for admission if he should desire to return . Incompletes
Grades of "I" must be removed not later than four weeks into the next regular semester. If an "I" grade is not removed within that period, it be comes permanent and the student loses all credit of the course. In addi tion, no student with four or more "I" or "T" grades will, as a rule, be al lowed to register for any graduate courses. Institute students should re fer to the Institute Student Handbook for further information. Diploma Application
Withdrawal
Withdrawal from courses or from the University must be with written permission of the Graduate Dean. Students are not permitted to with draw from courses during the four weeks before final examination peri od . Grades of F are assigned for unofficial withdrawals .
To be recommended for a degree, a student must file a formal applica tion in the Graduate Office. If he does not complete his work in the term during which the application is filed, it is necessary that he reapply early during the succeeding term in which he expects his degree. Awarding of Degrees
Leaves of Absence
A student who needs to interrupt his course of studies from one se mester to the next must seek a leave of absence. Leaves will be granted

I
The graduate programs in Art are concerned primarily with the profes sional preparation of the student. The Department administers three gradu ate programs: M.A., M.F.A., and the M.A. in Art Education. Upon review of the transcripts and portfolio presented, the graduate com mittee of the Art Department will make an assignment of courses to be taken if the student has met the standards for admission required by the pro gram sought and the Braniff Graduate School. At this point the student is assigned a master professor to aid in the development of the studio spe cialization. After completion of the 'first semester of work the committee will then re-evaluate this assignment making any necessary adjustments. Throughout the various programs such critiques are given and the simple completion of a certain number of credits is not to be construed as com pletion of a particular degree program. Most full-time students are awarded full tuition scholarships for the course work needed to complete the pro gram to which they are accepted. Scholarship holders are expected to be available for departmental tasks upon request, not to exceed 5 hours per week.
Assistantships are awarded in areas of Art History, Ceramics, Painting, Print making, and Sculpture. They are studio/research/grading assistantships. Teaching assistantships are very rare and depend on the needs of the de partment. Loans should be applied for through the Financial Aid Office. Upon review of the portfolio, tran scripts , and recommendations , the graduate faculty of the Art depart ment accepts students into the grad uate program under the supervision of a major professor in the studio specializations of Ceramics, Painting, Printmaking, and Sculpture. For the students in the graduate program in Art Education an art advisor is assigned.
I. The MA Program The study leading to the Master of Arts requires a minimum of 30 cred its, of which 10 credits have to be accumulated in the following: two con secutive semesters of the MA Semi nar, Art 5355-Twentieth Century Art, and one additional art history course. (The Twentieth Century course may be replaced by an approved substitution if its content is judged to have been satisfied previously.) Studio courses can be combined with the approval 175
of the major professor. The "full g radu ate art faculty examines the work of the student and his knowledge after the completion of 9-15 credit hours. Candidacy is granted after a suc cessful examination. The examination may be repeated only once, within the time of one semester. The com pletion of the program normally takes three semesters and independent study during the summer. It is culmi nated by a thesis exhibition, (for four credits), and an oral defense of the exhibition. The thesis exhibition is presented on campus. For documen tation, two sets of slides must be presented at the time of the oral examination.
II. The MFA Program The Master of Fine Arts is the ac cepted terminal degree for art stu dents. It is the purpose of the MFA program to develop students who have superior competence in their studio area, knowledge of a spectrum of studio procedures, proficiency in the history of art, and an understanding of the responsibilities of the artist or the artist-teacher. This program is designed for stu dents of high qualifications who wish to prepare themselves as profession al artists, and for positions in senior institutions. It requires the completion of the Master of Art program from the University of Dallas, or other colleges, and the acceptance by the full grad uate art faculty. Building upon earlier graduate ed ucation, the program requires a mini mum of 30 hours beyond the Master of Arts, of which the following courses are required of all students: two consecu tive semesters of MFA Seminar, two courses in art history, and the MFA Exhibition course. All other courses are selected with the approval of the major professor. The completion of the program normally takes three or
176
four semesters and two summers of independent study. It is completed by the MFA Exhibition, a professional exhibition on or off campus, and by an oral examination with the full grad uate art faculty. For documentation, two sets of slides and a short explan atory paper must accompany the ex hibition. Students entering the pro gram from another institution have their work and knowledged examined by the faculty after completion of 9-15 hours of study.
III. The M.A. in Art Education This interdepartmental degree re quires about 36 credits of study, 12 in education including six in prepara tion of a thesis relating the two fields, and 24 credits in Art in courses numbered 5000 or above as deter mined by the art advisor. It is impor tant that a random selection of courses be avoided. The M.A. in Art Educa tion is excellent preparation for high school and junior college teaching and for further graduate study.
Graduate Courses in Art And Art History Course Numbering The "V" designation in the course num ber indicates the possibility of variable credit. Per semester courses may range from one to five credits .
5354. History of American Art From the colonial period to the present. 5355.

iiThe Master of Arts The Master of Arts degree in Edu cation offered by the Braniff Gradu ate School is a professional degree. It certifies that the holder is qualified to teach a discipline at a level of competence higher than that attested by the baccalaureate degree which is prerequisite. It indicates additional mastery of the discipline as well as a deeper understanding of the prob lems involved in learning it. The curriculum requires additional study of a discipline as well as an advanced study of the philosophy, science, and art of education. At pres ent, the degree is offered in art edu cation, English education, and religious education. Additional specializations will be added as graduate programs in other disciplines are developed. A student is admitted to formal candidacy for the degree after the successful completion of nine credits in the discipline to be taught. Upon admission to candidacy, a committee of two graduate advisors from educa tion and the discipline area is assigned to direct the student in his program of studies. The advisors determine the student's adequacy of preparation for the inter departmental comprehensive exami nation. A candidate can reasonably expect to become eligible for the com prehensive examination in two semes ters of full-time concentrated work or
its equivalent in part-time study. Com pletion of the thesis will usually ex tend into a third semester. Course requirements for the M.A. in Education are: Education 6368-69 and 7388-89 and 24 semester hours of courses numbered 5000 or above in subject discipline as approved by the advisory committee.

Graduate Programs in English
II. The Master of Arts in English
A number of graduate programs are offered under the direction of the Department of English . The doctoral program in Literature forms a major portion of the Philo sophic Institute and is delineated in that section of the catalog. The M.A. in English is an intensive one year plus thesis program which, while establishing professional com petence in scholarly techniques, ac quaints the student with the broad survey of European and American let ters . The program is intended for the aspiring teacher, critic, or scholar. The Caroline Gordon Program in Creative Writing, leading to the M.A., concentrates on the fundamental meth ods and techniques necessary to the writer of fiction . The programs are described be low. The courses offered by the de partment in the graduate school are listed on the pages which follow. In addition, upper level undergraduate courses may be applicable; their de scriptions are given in the Constantin College section of the catalog .
The Master of Arts degree in En glish is a broad program of study preparing the student to teach litera ture effectively at the undergraduate level, to pursue doctoral study, or to practice the profession of letters. The aim is mastery of a whole discipline, not specialization in one aspect of it, and, consequently, study is not con fined to literature written in English but embraces a tradition of great works inclusive of Homer, Virgil, Dante, the Greek dramatists, and other Conti nental writers ancient and modern. Competency in this profession of letters is gained in a year or more of intensive study. Although familiarity with the scope of English and American literature is demanded and ability in the scholarly and communicative ap paratus is expected, what distinguishes the M.A. program at the University of Dallas is its concentration on a criti cal mastery of the "liter8/y tradition" - that living body of great European and American works that provides standards for literary judgment. Ordinarily a B.A. in English is re quired for admission. Students with out the B.A. in English but otherwise qualified may be required to take up to 12 hours of undergraduate credit in English concurrently with their grduate courses. Before beginning the M.A. Thesis the candidate will dem onstrate a reading competency in

181
Greek, Latin, French, German, or Italian. The language requirement may be met by completing an upper level language course with a grade of B or better or by passing an examination in translation. A candidate can rea sonably expect to become eligible for the comprehensive examination in a regular academic year of concen trated work, if no other obligations are undertaken. Completion of the the sis will most likely extend into the summer.
Courses in Literature 6311. The Epic Studies in the Iliad, Odyssey. Aeneid, and Beowulf with a view to under stand epic poetry as the most com prehensive form of literary art. Con centration upon the elaboration of a classical conception of the na ture of heroism, divinity, and social order in the poems of Homer and Virgil , culminating in a consider ation of Beowulf as bridging the Germanic-pagan and the Christian world.

6344. Tragedy/Comedy A consideration of two alternate but constantly recurring vantages upon human life beginning with Greek drama and Aristotle's Poetics, con tinuing with Elizabethan-Jacobean drama, and concluding with an as sessment of the fortunes of trage dy in the modern era. Reflection upon the relationship between the dramatic form and the human ac tion embodied in that form and upon epochal changes in the concep tion of what constitute tragic limita tion and comic fulfillment. Spring. 6355. Russian Novel Readings in Gogol, Turgenev, and Tolstoy, focusing chiefly on the ma jor writings of Dostoevsky as the novelist who incorporates the Rus sian myth into the Western tradition at a time of crisis and by so doing defines the limits of the novel: Dead Souls, Fathers and Sons, Anna Karenina and The Death of Ivan Ilych, The Idiot, The Possessed, The Brothers Karamazov. Spring. 7311. Chaucer Studies in the entire canon with special emphasis upon The Can terbury Tales, Troilus and Criseyde and The Book of the Duchess.

Master of Humanities Program
Director and Associate Professor Wood
The Master of Humanities program allows a student an exceptional breadth of experience in the accumulated cul ture of Western man. It is conceived as a forum for graduate learning which coordinates the pursuit of related dis ciplines, so that the work of anyone student while organized around one discipline may extend, for example, into courses in art history, literature, philosophy, politics, psychology, and theology. The program is intended primarily, but not exclusively, for the mature student who is already committed to the responsibilities of a family, busi ness, or profession. Therefore courses are often undertaken on a part-time basis and there is no rigid time-limit
stipulated for the completion of de gree requirements. The program re quires 36 credit hours, distributed in an interdisciplinary fashion, but nor mally with a concentration of 15 cred it hours in a major discipline. Regu larly at least half of these hours will be at the 6000 level or above . An undergraduate degree is as sumed, but it need not be in the field of the Humanities. Mature persons of high capacility who do not hold a bachelor's degree may be admitted conditionally with the approval of the Graduate Dean. Until the student's status is regularized, permission of the instructor may also be required for registration in some courses.

Department of Philosophy
Chairman and Associate Professor Wood; Pro fessor Wilhelmsen; Associate Professors Crosby, Hardy, and Murguia; Associate Professor Emeri tus Cain, Assistant Professors Lawrence and Sepper; Adjunct Professor Foltz.
The Department of Philosophy of fers two graduate programs in philoso phy, one leading to the Ph.D. and the other to the Master of Arts in Philos ophy.
I.The Doctoral Program with Concentration In Philosophy The doctoral program is an inter disciplinary program offered within the Institute of Philosophic Studies. The full description of this program may be found under the Institute of Philo sophic Studies in this Bulletin .
II. The Master of Arts In Philosophy Purpose: The Master of Arts pro gram intends to engage the student in a serious and thorough study of the Western philosophical tradition. It is not expected, however, that the student will acquire merely an extrin sic knowledge of historical authors and doctrines. Rather, the student should hope to recover the best of the philosophical tradition in personal appropriation, by rethinking the tradi':' tion in the light of the persistent ques tions, new and old. Requirements: Although the courses
for the Master of Arts degree are taught within the structure of the Insti tute of Philosophic Studies, the M.A. program remains an independent and unified program with its own aims and purposes. Ordinarily, candidates for admission to the Master of Arts program in Philosophy should have attained a Bachelor's degree in this discipline. In the absence of such a degree, the student may be required, after evaluation of his training and knowledge in the field, to take sup plementary undergraduate courses be fore or after his admission to the Mas ter's program. It is especially important that the student have a long familiari ty with the questions of classical Meta physics and with the history of the philosophical tradition . For the com pletion of the Master of Arts degree in Philosophy, the student must take eight graduate courses in Philosophy (24 credits) and must write a Mas ter's theses (6 credits). The student is furthermore required to demonstrate a critical mastery of a number of phil osophical texts specified by the De partment. Evidence of competency with regard to these is demonstrated in a comprehensive examination. Also, the student is expected to demon strate proficiency in at least one for eign language pertinent to his field of thesis research. 187

Department of Politics Chairman and Associate Professor West; Pro fessor Sasseen; Associate Professors Oe Al varez and Paynter; Visiting Professors Marini and Jeffrey; Lecturer Broyles.
The highest mission of the Depart ment of Politics is to teach students to examine politics from the compre hensive perspective of political phi losophy. Through its course of study, it also seeks to educate its students for leadership in public affairs. The graduate programs of the Politics De partment reflect these dual empha ses . It offers a Ph .D., through the Willmoore Kendall Program in Politics of the Institute of Philosophic Studies, and an M.A. in Politics.
I. The Doctoral Program with Concentration In Politics For a full description of this inter disciplinary program see the outline within the Institute of Philosophic Studies.
II. The Master of Arts In Politics The program leading to a Master of Arts in Politics is a concentrated course of study in political philosophy de signed especially for students who intend to pursue careers in law, jour nalism, business, government, or oth er non-college-teaching professions. It aims to develop and solidify the capacity of the student for truly inde pendent and rigorous thinking about political and moral questions.
The course of study allows the stu dent to study political philosophy free of many extraneous requirements. Most of the small and informal seminars characteristic of the program involve a close reading of the texts of the Great Tradition of discourse on politi cal order. The program is designed to enable the student to complete its requirements in a year of full-time study if he so desires.
Requirements for the M.A. in Politics The course of studies of all stu dents in the program will be planned in consultation with the director of the program, and must be approved by him. Thirty credit-hours are required. Six of these credit hours will consist of either a Master's thesis or two ad vanced seminars with a substantial paper in each. Up to six hours of the student's work may be taken outside the Department of Politics in courses closely related to the study of poli tics . Although most of the student's courses in politics will be graduate offerings of the department, in ex ceptional cases an upper-level un dergraduate course may be taken for graduate credit with the consent of the director of the program . In such a case the student will be assigned additional work by the course instructor. 191
A reading knowledge of foreign lan guage is required. This requirement may be met either by taking a lan guage examination administered by the department or by completing (not earlier than four years before the lan guage requirement becomes actual) the second semester of a second year level language course in an accredited college with at least a B grade . A comprehensive examination is required. The following list of courses, repre sentative of the graduate curriculum in Politics, will be offered as seminars or as directed readings (Special Stud ies) courses during the next three to five years as needed. Students should also consult the list of Politics courses in the undergraduate section of this catalogue; with the consent ot the Department Chairman, some of these may be taken for graduate credit, although graduate students may be assigned additional work by the course instructor. 7370.

It offers degree programs for men and women who plan careers in teaching and research. Members of the faculty and students participate regularly in ecumenical theological tasks. The department benefits from cooperative arrangements with other universities.
Requirements for Admission The following requirements specify and complete the University's require ments for graduate degrees described earlier in this catalogue. Applicants for admission should possess: 1. A Bachelor's degree. 2. A sufficiently strong liberal arts background . 3. A satisfactory preparation · in un dergraduate philosophy, including both systematic philosophy, espe cially ontology, and history of phi losophy. 4.

Applicants who are deficient in any but the first of these requirements may be admitted conditionally, and may remedy deficiencies through a program of coursework and readings undertaken in consultation with the department.
Candidacy Students are admitted to candida cy for the master's degree after com pleting satisfactorily one semester of at least 9 hours of graduate work.
I. Master Of Arts In Theology The course of studies leading to the Master of Arts in Theology is de signed to impart to qualified students a deeper understanding of and grad uate-level professional competence in theology and thus prepare them ordi narily for careers in research and teaching or for further graduate studies.
The Master Of Arts Degree Requirements The M.A. Degree requires a mini mum of 24 hours earned in academic, theological courses plus the six cred its of the Thesis Seminar and a Mas ter Thesis (or the six credits of the two advanced seminars with one schol arly research paper in each). Further, it requires a reading knowledge of a foreign language and comprehensive examination. 195
1. The required 24 credit hours in academic courses must be taken from the following areas : Systematic The ology, Scripture, Moral Theology, and History of the Christian Doctrine. No more than four courses (12 credits) can be chosen from 5000-level, and courses that are primarily pastoral and practical are not eligible for this re quirement. Since the number of re quired courses is relatively small the student with the guidance and ap proval of the competent authority de scribed below has to plan carefully the selection and scheduling of courses to be taken. Regularly Sources and Methods should be taken in the first semester and at least one course should be selected from each of the four designated areas. In each course that the student takes for the M.A. Degree he has to write a brief re search paper. The student has to main tain throughout the program a grade point average of 3.0. 2.

196
While the Department requires only one foreign language, it strongly urges the student to learn other languages especially Greek, Latin , French , and German . Normally the language ex amination should be passed before the student may register for the The sis Seminar or the advanced semi nars. The language requirement may be fulfilled either by taking a lan guage examination administered by the Department or by completing (not earlier than four years before the lan guage requirement becomes appli cable) the second semester of a sec ond year level language course in an accredited college with a grade of B or better. 4. The comprehensive examination, written and oral, is to be taken usual ly at the completion of the required work. Written: The student is allowed eight hours to complete the written exami nations distributed as follows: three for Systematic Theology, two for Scrip ture, two for Moral Theology, and one for History of Christian Doctrine. In Systematic Theology the student will be given four to eight questions and will be required to write three essays.

The Doctoral Program in The Institute of Philosophic Studies Director and Associate Professor de Alvarez
The Institute of Philosophic Studies offers a program leading to the Ph .D. degree. The Institute has as its pur pose the renewal of the tradition of philosophic discourse and the recov ery of the Christian intellectual tradi tion. The student's course of study includes a set of core courses estab lished by the Institute and an area of concentration which the student de velops in consultation with a faculty adviser. The areas of concentration presently offered are in Literature, Phi losophy, or Politics. The Ph.D. degree, under the gen eral rules and procedures of the Braniff Graduate School, requires the suc cessful completion of 72 hours in the Institute, any independent study the faculty deems advisable for a given candidate, an acceptable performance on a qualifying and comprehensive examination, reading mastery in two foreign languages, and a dissertation of substance and originality. Applicants should write to the Grad uate Coordinator, Braniff Graduate School of Liberal Arts, University of Dallas, 1845 E. Northgate Drive, Irving, Tx. 75062-4799 ([214] 721-5388).
Courses of the Institute Students take 30 to 36 hours of courses in the Institute's core curricu lum, and 36 to 42 hours in their area of concentration. Course work is nor mally completed in three years. The student who does not have adequate
preparation in the area of concentra tion may be required, after consulta tion with the faculty, to take courses in the undergraduate college. The Institute core courses are meant to provide the student with a solid foundation in the Western tradition, poetic, philosophic and theological. These courses will concentrate on careful study of the significant texts of this tradition, including such au thors, for example, as Homer and Vergil, Dante and Shakespeare; Plato and Aristotle, Rousseau and Nietzsche; Augustine and Aquinas, Luther and Pascal; and the Bible. The area of concentration allows the student to read in a discipline in which he expects to teach and write. The specific requirements for each student will be worked out by the student in consultation with the facul ty adviser and with the approval of the Executive Committee. The descrip tion of each of the three areas of concentration presently offered in the Institute is given below.
Courses·of the Institute Courses designated as "Core Courses' of the Institute will be listed in the particular semester schedule with the prefix IPS (Institute of Philosophic Studies). Those of the area of concentration will carry the appropriate departmental designation. The courses will be similar to those described under the departmental listings of the Grad uate Liberal Arts section of the bulletin .

Areas of Concentration Literature. The philosophic character of liter ary study within the Institute is reflected in a concentration upon major au thors whose work can claim philo sophical scope and penetration. The approach to these works is also philo sophic. Students inquire into the is sues treated by great writers consid ering the literary treatment as one voice in a conversation within which philosophers, theologians, and politi cal thinkers also participate. The un derstanding is that the poet seeks to supplant opinion with knowledge by means of constructing a coherent vi sion of reality just as philosophers seek the same end through dialectic. The aim of study therefore is to share in the poet's wisdom concerning a reality already constituted before his imaginative activity but imperfectly known until illuminated and ordered by his art. Courses focus upon litera ture as a distinct way of knowing irreducible to other modes of knowl edge but best understood and as sessed when studied in company with other modes of discourse directed to common subjects. Institute students join teachers dedicated to grasping I~ what manner poetic art can pro Vide knowledge of reality and to dis cerning what that knowledge may be. Students learn to apprehend the
206
form of literary art by attending to the qualities of poetic speech and by ~tudyi.ng the kinds of poetry. They investigate such constants of the arts ~s myth, symbol, analogy and figure, Image, prosody, and style. In the pro cess they come to appreciate the notable congruence of particularity with generality that characterizes the poetic mode of being and that has led thinkers to define a poem as a "concrete universal." The kinds of poetry - the perennial gen res - need not be taken as prescriptions arbi trarily imposed, for they can be un derstood as the natural shapes litera ture displays when it envisions different human actions. Neither the constants of poetic speech nor the continuities of genre sufficiently specify the particular pur chase upon human issues offered by any great poem . To bring this mean ing into sharper resolution requires ~he final act of literary understanding, Interpretation of individual poems, an undertaking in which the comparison of poem with poem has its instructive part. Critical interpretation entails the most careful and sustained attentive ness to elucidating meaning and cul minates in critical judgment of the contribution of that meaning to one's grasp of the truth . The interpretive dimension of the program is reflected in courses that find their formal object sometimes in g~nre (Epic, Tragedy/Comedy, Me nlppean Satire), sometimes in a liter ary movement (Romantic/Victorian, A.ugustan Literature, Twentieth-Century Literature), most frequently in major authors (Dante, Chaucer, Spenser/ Milton, Shakespeare, Dostoevsky, Faulkner, Hawthorne/Melville/James, Goethe/Nietzsche/HQlderlin/Rilke). The student confronts the claims of clas sical, Christian, and modern poets . He thereby enters into the issues that cause the Western tradition to be a tradition of controversies.
Philosophy The aim of philosophy at the Uni versity of Dallas is to recover the possibility of a wisdom which deals with those "first things" grounded and located in human experience within the whole of being. Philosophy is im pelled by reference to the totality that is distinctive of human existence. It analyzes the frameworks within which other human endeavors occur and recommends ways in which they might be situated so as to throw light on the character of the totality. Such illumi nation, in turn, affects those other human endeavors by giving them per spective. By reason of its location in a Catholic institution, the department of philosophy is particularly interest ed in the ways revelation has led to development within a properly philo sophic wisdom available to believers and unbelievers alike. The major tool of philosophic re search lies in the careful study of classical texts from Plato and Aristot le to Heidegger and Wittgenstein. The CUltivation of competence in logic and facility in at least one classical and one modern language are viewed as indispensable auxiliaries in the proj ect. The underlying conviction is that texts which have continually drawn the readership of reflective minds throughout the centuries contain pro found insights into the fundamental issues of being and thought and that we neglect such insights at our own peril, especially since they have been instrumental in the formation of our own mental horizon. Hence polemical reaction takes second place to sym pathetic dialogue. Not "Where do they go wrong?" but "What did they see?" governs the approach. Such an ap proach does not aim at the indifferent cataloguing of historical positions. It rather aims at understanding "the things themselves" through dialogue with the masters. The aim is to see the same things in different ways and
thereby learn to assess the value and limitations of the differing ways with a view toward an ever-developing wis dom of the whole . The curriculum is divided between "historical" and "systematic" courses, the former dealing with an epoch or an individual thinker, the latter with an area or an issue. But both types of courses are, in different ways, histori cal and systematic. Though the sys tematic courses are ordered toward a given area or issue (ethics or meta physics or immortality or potentiality), they draw from the entire textual tra dition of discourse about the issues in question. Although the historical courses are situated in a given time frame, their intent is to engage the issues through the thinker or thinkers studied.
Politics The study of politics at the Univer sity of Dallas comprises all human things. If the polis is the association whose purpose is the complete hu man life, then politics includes all the activities whose end is the complete human life. In reflecting upon these activities, politics becomes philosoph ic. Indeed, it is only political philoso phy, whose founder was Socrates, that takes seriously the possibility of the best regime as the standard whereby every other polity is to be judged. Political philosophy, according to Aristotle, is an inquiry into the soul. For it is ultimately the proper order of the human soul which determines the proper order of constitutions. , The modern difficulty is that we no longer think of politics as concerned with all human things. The state has replaced the polis, and that means that we now understand politics as concerned only with the external con ditions for human life. The Institute politics program attempts to show the student that the great texts of political philosophy are not meant to be sys
207
tematic treatises with propositions to be memorized as true statements, but are instead ind ications, suggestions, openings, into existence. It is only in conversation - in the exchange be tween the texts, the student, and the teacher (who is a more experienced student) - that the texts come alive . These works do not so much state what the nature of things is as lead the soul on a journey towards seeing or intellecting both the principles and ends of existence . Thus a different kind of reading and scholarship is required, one which is able to repro duce this journey of the soul. The program also means to restore the importance of the rhetorical tradi tion . We wish to restore the under standing that the word has a power over the soul . The tendency in politi cal thought today is to interpret hu man actions as caused by some im personal force, whether of the mode of production, the market place, sex ual or biological forces, or the myste rious dispensations of History. Politi cal thought in this view becomes an epiphenomenon, a mere reflection or deceptive rationalization of hidden true causes. Thus not rhetoric but a sci ence of economics, of behavior, or of the history of being is said to be of primary importance. Courses in contemporary politics are an integral part of the program. Just
208
as Aristotle's Politics contains careful political analyses of the ancient Greek cities, so today the philosophic study of politics must provide an account of contemporary political life. In any pro gram focusing on great texts there is always a danger of self-forgetting im mersion in the past. The study of the present reminds us that political phi losophy is intended not merely to un derstand political life but also to guide it-in light of its ultimate goal, the good society. Through the program in politics, the Institute hopes to help form stu dents who will be able to bring to the sempiternal political questions, as well as to the contemporary world, an un derstanding shaped by the centuries of discourse on such questions. Stu dents are asked to read the works of the tradition with a seriousness which, in the past two centuries, has too often been lacking. Such seriousness requires not only native intelligence and good character, but also a great capacity for work and a willingness to acquire all the tools necessary for such a task. One of these tools is a knowledge of the languages in which these works are originally written. The student is required to obtain a work ing knowledge of at least two of the languages of the philosophic tradi tion, one ancient and one modern .
The Center for Contemplative Studies
Director: Emery; Advisory Group: Balas, DiLorenzo, Maddux, Sommerfeldt, Swietek.
The Center for Contemplative Studies The purpose of the Center for Con templative Studies is to make the rich spiritual tradition of the West more . widely known, and to integrate the wisdom of this tradition with the usual intellectual concerns of the university. The Center seeks to accomplish this purpose by encouraging the scholar ly study and teaching of significant texts and historical movements. On a regular basis the Center spon sors courses, taught by members of its affiliated faculty, in the undergrad uate and graduate programs of the University of Dallas. In cooperation with the graduate program of Theolo gy, the Center sponsors a series of courses in the History of Spirituality (Early Christian-Patristic, Medieval, Ear ly Modern, Contemporary). Through this cooperation the Center expresses its conviction that an authentic spiri tuality must be founded on a faith that seeks understanding. Further, in cooperation with the faculties of the Institute of Philosophic Studies, the Center offers a series of special top ics courses concerning Contempla tion, the Liberal Arts and Sciences.
These courses pursue topics such as Rhetoric and Theology in St. Augustine, Contemplative Systems of the Liberal Arts and Science, The Monastic Tra dition of Learning, Poetry, Myth, and Theology in the Twelfth Century. Each year the Center sponsors a series of lectures by visiting profes sors and members of the University faculty. These lectures are intended to illumine the authors and texts of the spiritual tradition through the dif ferent perspectives of the historian, literary critic, philosopher, and theolo gian . Indeed, the Center wishes to be an interdisciplinary forum for all those who study the history of spirituality. Through its semi-annual newsletter, Notes & Commentary, the Center re ports activities at the University, an nounces those occurring elsewhere, and offers reflective essays and book reviews. The Center for Contemplative Stud ies benefits from the Catholic, liberal arts tradition of the University of Dallas, the interdisciplinary ideal of its grad uate program, and its many faculty experts in the history of spirituality. Through these institutional means the Center wishes to make a modest con tribution to the sapientia christianorum. 209

II. The Graduate School of Management
Dean and Professor Gellerman
Faculty and Major Staff The Graduate School of Management Faculty and Senior Staff: Associate Dean Hughes; As sistant Dean for Administration Hum; Associ ate Professors Evans, Gordon, Lynch, Rodgers; Assistant Professors Cunningham, Goldstein, Hopkins, Kusewitt; Visiting Professor Covington; Visiting Associate Professor Ramasubramanian; Visiting Assistant Professors Ames, Dunikoski, Gregg, Marsh, Shoemaker, Stephenson.
Purposes of Management Education at GSM The Graduate School of Manage ment is a professional school whose primary purpose is to prepare its stu dents to become competent, respon sible practitioners in the profession of management. Unlike traditional busi ness schools, G8M is not primarily concerned with teaching its students about management; rather its main purpose is to teach students how to manage. While scholarly writings on managerial topics are carefully ex amined, the principal emphasis is on how to manage wisely and effectively. GSM is deeply concerned with the process of managerial decision mak ing . The premise is that all decisions worthy of being made by managers, rather than by their subordinates, are by definition dilemmas. That is, man agers are typically required to re solve problems that have no obvious or easy answers: some kind of penal ty or cost is attached to all of the
alternatives a manager might choose. Those costs can be economic, politi cal, psychological , or moral. In the act of deciding, a manager commits his or her organization to incur (or at least to risk) some or all of these costs: they are the unavoidable price of whatever the manager hopes to gain. Managerial decisions, also by defi nition, ramify. Their effects spread to other people and departments, even to other organizations and to people in remote places. Whole families, com munities and even nations can be affected by high-level managerial de cisions while decisions taken at lower levels can influence the welfare of individual human beings and their fami lies. In this sense, all managerial de cisions are potentially momentous. This does not mean that managers should hesitate to make decisions; but they do need methods which permit deci sions to be timely, balanced and far-sighted.
211
This is why GSM seeks to teach its students to approach managerial de cision-making with a full awareness of the positive and negative features of each alternative, and how the ef fects of each decision might ramify. The faculty does not seek to incul cate an ideology, or a preferred choice among competing alternatives; but it does urge students to examine all aspects of all alternatives. Students are encouraged to be aware of how their own values can affect their deci sions, and of the need for a balanced appreciation of other people's values especially those of people who could be affected by their decisions. The faculty's ultimate objective is that all managerial risks shall be knowingly taken and that all costs shall be consciously incurred. That is the best way, in the long run, to en sure that most decisions lead to fa vorable outcomes. This is also why all students are required to master a wide range of business disciplines, in addition to the specialized courses in their cho sen areas of concentration. Most man agerial decisions that are subsequently considered failures did not involve illogical deductions from the facts that were considered. Instead, they were the result of facts that were not con sidered: because they were unknown or thought to be unimportant. Thus, GSM students are required to master a core body of knowledge that in cludes such subjects as: manage ment theory, marketing, economics, information systems, accounting, fi nance, law, operations, analytical meth odology and human resources-in ad dition to the courses in their specialized fields of concentration . (See the course requirements of each program for details.) Given this view of management ed ucation, the curriculum at GSM pro vides students with a core body of knowledge in the areas of marketing, economics, systems, finance, quanti 212
tative methods, and human resource management, as well as specialized body of knowledge in the various fields of concentration. The Graduate School of Manage ment first opened its doors in Sep tember of 1966 with 16 students. Es sentially, but not exclusively, an evening school, GSM developed as an alter native to various daytime graduate programs in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex . GSM now enrolls approximately 1300 students. Over 3000 students have received degrees since 1966. The undergraduate educational back ground of GSM's student body is di verse: 25 percent of the students hold engineering degrees, 41 percent hold degrees in business or economics, 18 percent were science majors, four percent were liberal arts graduates, and the remaining 12 percent come from various backgrounds. Nine per cent of GSM's students hold gradu ate degrees in other disciplines. While the majority of GSM's students are Texas residents, 43 states are repre sented at the Graduate School of Man agement, as are 34 foreign countries. GSM offers several programs lead ing to the Master of Business Admini stration. Business Management Engineering Management Management Information Systems International Management Industrial Management Health Services Management Acquisition and Government Con tract Management The prog rams are appropriate for young students just starting their ca reers as well as for mature individu als desiring an early or mid-career change in professional direction. The content of each program provides a solid theoretical base, a rigorous cov erage of the applicable body of knowl edge; and a pragmatic approach, which encourages applied practice. With the exception of the broad
MBA in Business Management, these programs prepare the student in-depth in an area of professional specializa tion. The Business Management MBA prepares the student to be a man agement generalist able to interact with others to coordinate their activi ties. The program also provides an opportunity to interface directly with real-world projects through the use of a student consulting team methodol ogy. Since its inception, over 800 con sulting projects have been performed for local, national and international businesses, health organizations, aca demic institutions, and other organi zations. For complete details on admission and other aspects of the MBA pro grams please consult the GSM cata log or write to: Director of Admis sions, Graduate School of Manage ment, University of Dallas, Irving, TX 75061.
Through Plan The Through Plan provides a means by which a student can complete both the baccalaureate and the MBA in approximately a 5-year period. By mak ing wise use of electives, undergrad uate students in their senior year can have up to 12 hours credit accepted by the Graduate School of Manage ment, thus enabling them to com plete the usual 2-year program in three or four semesters. Consult the listing under Through Plan in the undergraduate section of the catalog for further information.
MBA Business Management Change and increasing complexity mark the modern business environ ment. There is a great need for pro fessional managers who are able to cope effectively with change and to coordinate skillfully the efforts of the
firm's specialists in such areas as accounting, finance, marketing, and production. The MBA program is de signed to educate well-rounded indi viduals who can direct the myriad of special functions toward the accom plishment of the goals and objectives of the enterprise. The program consists of a curricu lum of 48 semester hours plus one (1) one-hour Graduate School of Man agement Seminar (Mgt. 5199). Semester I 5199. Management Seminar 5384. Legal Environment 5362.

MBA International Management Department of Commerce figures put U.S. corporate assets overseas at well over $100 billion. Corporations with extensive foreign holdings turn to colleges and universities for man agement personnel trained to handle the special problems of multinational operations. Few individuals, however, are available with the qualifications and understanding of foreign opera tions so important to these firms. The Master of Business administra tion degree in International Manage 213
ment is designed to educate profes sional managers for multinational busi ness . Although it is not a prerequisite for this program the ability to speak a foreign language is a definite ad vantage. The program consists of a curricu lum of 48 semester hours plus one (1) one-hour Graduate School of Man agement Seminar (Mgt. 5199).

MBA Engineering Management Due to the technical complexity of today's modern business environment, there is a great need for engineering and technical managers. This need is found in almost every industry and in 214
small as well as large enterprises. The MBA in Engineering Manage ment is a program for individuals who have demonstrated records of pro fessional performance as well as academic achievement. It is designed for those individuals who wish to pur sue an intensive program of graduate study while continuing to meet their professional responsibilities. This course of study builds upon the stu dent's professional background in such a manner as to maximize the use of prior education, experience, and ex pertise.

tions, store data, and assist in deci sion-making. Yet, today, most functional line man agers and general managers do not have an adequate knowledge and un derstanding of computers and infor mation systems concepts. Likewise, most managers of computer systems and information processing operations do not have an adequate knowledge of skill in business and management. It is to serve such developing needs that the MBA in Information Systems has been developed. To satisfy both needs, needs which are expressly different in perspective, two separate and distinct "tracks" - or areas of emphasis-are required. Track I is designed for those individuals whose career interest is in other functional areas of management, while Track II is designed for those whose career interest is in the field of systems and information processing management.
Special Requirements MBA Management
Information Systems
The continuing explosion of com puter technology and of application of management information systems has created a continuing need for managers who understand informa tion systems and computer technolo gy, and also a need for system ana lysts and information processing managers who understand business and management. Even with the per vasive growth observed to date, most experienced practitioners agree that the "computer revolution" is barely out of its infancy. Thus, these needs will continue to increase. Further, with ever increasing frequency, managers in functional areas such as market ing, production, engineering, finance, and general management are required to use computers to process transac
Track I assumes a basic knowl edge of computers and algorithms. Such knowledge could have been ac quired through prior course work at the undergraduate level or through work experience. Lacking such knowl edge, the student must take Mgt. 5329, Computer Concepts & Programming as a prerequisite course. Track II assumes a knowledge of systems design and programming pro ficiency equivalent to Mgt. 6331, Com puter Systems & Programming I, and Mgt. 6375, Systems Analysis & De sign . Such knowledge must be sub stantiated by the successful comple tion of equivalent courses at an ac credited undergraduate or graduate institution, or through work experience. Lacking such knowledge, the student will be required to take both Mgt. 6331 and Mgt. 6375 as prerequisites for Track II. 215

Therefore, the purpose of this program is to equip the student to cope successfully with the manage ment challenges of today's ever changing industrial environment. The program consists of a curricu lum of 48 semester hours plus one (1) one-hour Graduate School of Man agement Seminar (Mgt. 5199). Electives available in this area of
