Exciting things happen when teachers become students. Now taking applications for our Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction.

This component also includes a biweekly seminar, which provides a forum for discussion of and reflection on critical issues related to students’ daily responsibilities as classroom teachers. Students entering the program will have the option of entering one of two areas of concentration, either elementary or secondary curriculum and instruction. Though the core courses will be the same, the research and capstone experiences will be structured for the specific grade range and subject area interest the students select upon entry into the program.

SCS Launches Languages Across the Curriculum

New courses focus on developing cross-cultural competency through language skills. Language Across the Curriculum (LAC) at SCS offers one semester hour, pass/fail courses in a variety of languages. LAC sections are small discussion groups led by a faculty member well versed in a second language.

hance the global aspect of their learning experience. Native-speakers may also enjoy this program. LAC provides them with opportunities to discuss and enhance what they’re learning in English, in their native languages.

LAC sections are offered in conjunction with a primary course, although enrollment in the primary course may not be required. With a teaching style that is more relaxed than regular classes, LAC sections will generally meet once a week for a roundtable discussion of assignments in a second language designed to enhance the international outlook of the primary course.

In essence, any student with a background in a second language will find LAC to be a useful and enjoyable program.

Although the use of a non-English language will be an essential aspect of the LAC sections, the use of the target language will emerge on the basis of the interest and the skill levels of the students involved, and the discussion will take place in English to the extent necessary for everyone to understand everything that is discussed. Some faculty teaching the primary courses might choose to provide students with the opportunity to complete research projects in a second language instead of the weekly meetings. The purpose of Language Across the Curriculum sections is to ensure that students acquire cross-cultural competency through the use of their language skills in the context of another discipline. The goal is ease of communication, not perfect grammar or syntax. While LAC students use foreign languages to discuss subjects of particular interest to them, they are improving their fluency, vocabulary and grasp of the primary course material. Programs like Richmond’s exist at forward-thinking universities across the country. Language Across the Curriculum can be used as a different kind of resource for SCS students of different needs but it’s especially useful for those wanting to en12

In Fall 2008, we’re offering three LAC options for SCS students: • LAC 250U–Human Resource Management: LAC Spanish • LAC 257U–Emergency Services Management: LAC Glosa (Online) • LAC 550U–Human Resource Management: LAC Spanish See page 28 for detailed course information. Contact your advisor with any questions.

Credit Hours: 3 Time: 7:00–9:40 p.m. Cost: $1,062

Once a student decides they are serious about transferring, we suggest attending an Information Session for Adult Students, which are held periodically throughout the year. You can also schedule a meeting with a student advisor for an unofficial audit of transfer work or to discuss degree options. You do not have to apply or be admitted to SCS to meet with a student advisor. Are you thinking about transferring at a later date? Our student advisors are also willing to speak to you before your current school’s registration begins to help choose courses that have a high likelihood of transferability and complete the general education requirements or your desired degree program. Students can transfer a maximum of 60 credit hours to an SCS undergraduate degree program.

Meet David Weaver SCS’07, Liberal Arts and Teacher Licensure Preparation

Recently named Hanover County’s Beginning Teacher of the Year, David Weaver just finished his first year as an 8th grade Civics and Economics teacher at Chickahominy Middle School. He’s not your typical first year teacher. After all, he’s almost 52 and a 25-year veteran of the architectural design industry. But he is a part of a growing trend in the Richmond area: professionals returning to school to become teachers. The Teacher Licensure Preparation program at the School of Continuing Studies has prepared hundreds of adults to transition from established careers into the field of education and meet the high demand for teachers in our region. David earned his Bachelor of Liberal Arts degree with a concentration in secondary education. Individuals who have already have a bachelor’s degree earn a Graduate Certificate in Teacher Licensure Preparation (TLP). Q: Why did you return to school? DW: I started my bachelor’s degree at JMU many years ago, but it wasn’t a priority for me at that point in my life. As I progressed in my professional career I came to realize I needed a degree, so I took classes here and there over the next several years. My wife, Terri, and I moved to Richmond about five years ago, and with our kids out of college and on their own, I finally ran out of excuses. Q: What made you want to pursue teaching? DW: Short answer: My wife, Terri. She’s been telling me for 30 years I would make a good teacher, and I finally listened to her. My children have also been an inspiration; through them, I understand the importance of a positive school experience, and I would like to provide the same positive experience to other kids. Q: What’s the best thing about teaching for you? DW: I really enjoy being around the kids. Despite what you see in the media, we’re still raising fine young people today. They’re honest, bright, enthusiastic, and they challenge me each day to be my best. Q: How would you describe your experience at University of Richmond? DW: Stimulating and engaging. The program at SCS allowed me to articulate ideas and principles that I have held for a long time but never had a forum to voice. The instructors introduced me to areas of literature, history, and the arts that truly expanded my world view. Q: What did you like best about the TLP program? DW: What I liked best about the TLP program was the quality of instruction. Every instructor in the program brought years of real-world experience into the classroom, and they shared their experiences honestly and generously. Q: What are your future plans? DW: I really enjoy what I’m doing and I want to get better at it, so I plan to spend some time this summer researching my subject and getting ready for next year. Q: You were just named the Beginning Teacher of the Year for Hanover County. How does that make you feel? DW: Incredibly lucky. I feel very fortunate to have landed where I did, surrounded by supportive administrators, seasoned professional educators, and dedicated staff.

FALL 2008 SCHEDULE OF CLASSES

Payment

PAYMENT IN FULL IS DUE BY THE END OF THE FIRST WEEK OF THE TERM WHETHER OR NOT AN INVOICE HAS BEEN RECEIVED. Students have the option of paying for classes with a check, cash or credit card (MasterCard, American Express or Discover). There is a fee for paying by credit card. You will still be responsible to meet all payment deadlines, even if you do not receive an invoice. You may also make payments using the Tuition Pay plan. For more information regarding payment of fees, contact the Office of Student Accounts at 289-8147. Failure to make satisfactory financial arrangements can result in delay of graduation, denial of registration, removal from classes, withholding of transcripts, and/or referral to a collection agency. If your student account is referred to a collection agency, you will be liable for all collection costs, including attorney fees and other charges necessary for collection of this debt. Accounts referred to collections are reported to credit bureau(s). By registering for classes you are acknowledging receipt of this information and your acceptance of the associated responsibilities.

Tuition Payments

Full payment or plan of payment is due to the Student Accounts office by the end of the first week of the term or you will be dropped from class. You will still be responsible to meet all payment deadlines even if you do not receive an invoice. You may pay using one of the following methods. 1. You can now pay your student account balance on-line by visiting BannerWeb (http://bannerweb.richmond.edu) and clicking on Student Services/Payment of Tuition and Fees/Payment of Tuition and Fees.

If you have a hold on your account, the hold will not be released until the next business day. 2. Check payable to the University of Richmond. 3. Cash 4. Tuition Pay Plan (arrangements must be made by August 10 for the fall semester and December 10 for the spring semester.) 48

Tuition and Fee Refund

Refund percentages are administered according to the following schedule: Withdrawal on or before the first day of class: 100% Withdrawal during the first week of classes: 100% Withdrawal during the second week of classes: 70% Withdrawal during third week of classes: 50% Withdrawal during the fourth week of classes: 25% Withdrawal during the fifth week of classes: 25% Withdrawal during the sixth week of classes: 25% Withdrawal after the sixth week of classes: None Tuition Payment Plan from Tuition Pay What is Tuition Pay? Tuition Pay by Sallie Mae is an educational financing company that provides families and students with a low cost plan for budgeting tuition and other education expenses. The Tuition Pay Monthly plan is NOT a loan program, therefore no debt is incurred. There is no interest or finance charge assessed by Tuition Pay on the unpaid balance due to the college. The only fee to budget payments through Tuition Pay is a $35.00 per semester nonrefundable enrollment fee. Payments made through Tuition Pay are considerably less expensive than the cost of obtaining loans, paying with credit cards, or budgeting through other interest or feecharging payment plans. There is no credit search or qualifications necessary to use Tuition Pay. One of the reasons why the cost to budget with Tuition Pay is so affordable is because payments through Tuition Pay are made by using automatic payments from your bank. The automatic payment helps you budget tuition payments in a convenient way which ensures that the college will receive dependable and consistent tuition payments. With Tuition Pay you never miss a payment and you save the time and expense of writing and mailing checks. How does the automatic payment work? Automatic payments are simply payments that you authorize your bank to make on your behalf on a specific date each month. The amount paid by your bank is a predetermined amount that you have authorized. Your bank will make these payments from either your checking or

savings account, according to the instructions you have provided on your agreement with Tuition Pay. Payments will be made until the total amount due to the college is paid in full. Automatic payments are used to pay mortgages, life insurance premiums, car payments, utilities, and other types of bills. When you use Tuition Pay to pay your school tuition, your bank sends your payment on the 5th of the month directly to the bank that Tuition Pay uses to collect tuition payments. Before any payment is made, Tuition Pay provides evidence of your authorization for tuition payments to your bank. Your bank will usually verify this authorization with you and then set up the payment schedule. It is important to remember that Tuition Pay and your college never see your bank account or have any direct access to your account. You never lose any control of your account. The automatic payment process is strictly controlled by state and federal laws. With Tuition Pay your payments are made on the 5th of each month. Budget Period To qualify for the 3-month payment plan, Tuition Pay must receive student applications by August 10th for the Fall semester or December 10th for the Spring semester. The budget period is August through October for the Fall semester and January through March for the Spring semester. The Tuition Pay payment plan is not available for courses offered during the Summer semester. How to apply for Tuition Pay To enroll in the Tuition Pay Monthly plan simply go to their website at www.tuitionpay.com and click on “enroll now”.

UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND School of Continuing Studies • scs.richmond.edu • (804) 289-8133


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

What if I have questions about my account? There is always an account representative who can answer questions about your Tuition Pay account once it has been established. You can call 1-800-635-0120 and speak to an account representative. You may also contact the Student Accounts Office at (804) 289-8147. Can changes be made to my account? Yes. Notify the Student Accounts Office at the University of changes resulting from additional Financial Aid, course additions, deletions, etc. Call (804) 289-8147.

General Fee Refund

Students are matriculated by semester. If a student withdraws from classes or is dropped from the University for whatever cause, a refund of fees for a fall or spring semester shall be made in accordance with the University’s refund policy, based on the following schedule. This schedule is adapted for summer terms. Students who withdraw from the University and who are receiving any financial assistance may be required to return such assistance per Public Law 668.22 and institutional policy. The University of Richmond complies with all federal regulations governing recipients of federal Title IV funds. Information regarding financial aid refund policies is available in the Financial Aid Office. The amount of the refund is based on the date that written withdrawal notification is received in the Office of the Dean. Any special fee is non-refundable after the first day of class. Appeals Process The University of Richmond has an appeal process for students and parents who believe individual circumstances warrant exceptions from published policy. All appeals must be in writing and directed to: Annemarie Weitzel, Bursar Box R University of Richmond, Virginia 23173 or bursar@richmond.edu

E-Bill and E-Payment FAQ What is an e-Bill and e-Payment? The e-Bill is an electronic system for all students to view, print and make payments on line. An electronic bill will be sent monthly to each student’s official UR email address. It can also be sent to any person that has been authorized by the student. What company has the University of Richmond partnered with to provide this service? The University has contracted with QuikPAY®, a hosted electronic bill and payment service. Our contract with them ensures that the processes are compliant with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. Is the QuikPAY® site secure? The technical architecture/security of the QuikPAY® product uses intrusion detection and firewall systems to protect the network. The University of Richmond believes that security is a very important factor in providing e-Billing and e-Payment services. Why did the University of Richmond transition to e-Billing and e-Payment? The University of Richmond decided to move to e-Billing and e-Payment for several reasons, among them time, convenience and cost. The QuikPAY® system is available worldwide, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. There are no checks, envelopes or stamps needed to make a payment. You will receive immediate confirmation of e-Payment. Additional benefits include viewable billing and payment history as well as convenient access for authorized payers who the student sets up. Will I still receive a paper bill? No, we will no longer mail paper bills to your home. How can I make an e-Payment? e-Payment is an optional feature. Checking and savings account information from a Bank within the United States can be entered at the QuikPAY® website and payments will be transferred electronically to the University of Richmond. You will have the option to have the site retain your bank account information or you may enter it each time you make and e-Payment. Authorized payers will only be able to view their own payment and bank information. Each authorized payer is assigned a separate PIN number for added security and privacy. Can I pay my e-Bill with a credit card? The University of Richmond accepts MasterCard, Discover and American Express. Visa is not currently accepted. A vendor fee of 2.75% (of the amount charged) will be charged to your card. I do not feel comfortable paying my bill on line. What other payment methods are available? Paying electronically is the preferred bill payment method, but it is optional. You may send payment by mail or in person at the Cashiers Office in Sarah Brunet Hall. To send a check or money order through the mail to our payment processing center, please print a copy of the PDF bill, detach the bottom portion of the statement and mail it with the payment (payable to the University of Richmond with your UR ID number printed clearly on the check) to: University of Richmond P.O. Box 791356 Baltimore, MD 21279-1356 How do students log in and view their bill? Students will receive a monthly email notification with the subject line “University of Richmond student account bill” with a link to the QuikPAY® website. The student’s University of Richmond ID number is used for authentication. Students can also access their account through BannerWeb (http://bannerweb.richmond.edu).

A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfilled his or her professional responsibility. 4) The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the University of Richmond to comply with the requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the office that administers FERPA is: Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20202-4605 The University of Richmond‘s complete FERPA Policy Statement is available as part of the Office of the University Registrar‘s Web page at www.richmond.edu/academics/registrar/ferpa.html or by contacting the Office of the University Registrar.
