Now that you have the University of Florida's undergraduate catalog, you might like help in using it. Ac-
cording to Webster, a catalog is a complete enumeration of things arranged systematically with descriptive
detail. But to find exactly what you want to know it helps to know the system.
This undergraduate catalog is organized into three main sections. The first explains the University ad-
ministration as it relates to the student; the second presents a description of the academic units, and the
third section lists the course descriptions. Other information is provided including a calendar of critical
dates at the front and a listing of faculty and administrators in the back. An index is placed at the end of
the catalog.
In addition to ge ;| it section has specific details
about admission, exp ,
A student at the University ; '. e.,csi ih ci n of 19 c(': ceg. iJr schools. The second section
of the catalog explains the program in each of these academic units. Major fields of study, degrees offered,
requirements for admission or graduation for this unit and other pertinent information are located here.
The second section should help the student determine an academic program for a bachelor's degree.
Here you learn about the individual departments of the colleges, something of the philosophy on which the
curriculum is based and the career or competence toward which this training is aimed.
The third section lists the actual courses and their descriptions. This part is set up alphabetically by de-
partments of instruction. It tells you which undergraduate courses will be taught in each of the semesters.
This section is partially in a code (course prefix and number) which identifies the statewide course number
and the University of Florida designation.
For example, ZOO 2014 is shorthand for the course Principles of Animal Biology. Following the title are
the letters F, S, SS meaning it is offered in each of the semesters-Fall, Spring and Summer. The course car-
ries four credit hours. It lists as prerequisites ZOO 2013C (Introductory Zoology Laboratory) and CHM 2042
and CHM 2042L (General Chemistry), meaning they must be completed satisfactorily before registration for
ZOO 2014. A separate schedule of courses is printed each semester and used in conjunction with the catalog
during registration.

section in general section and to your specific

UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA


FLORIDAS FIRST UNIVERSITY


A COMPLETE UNIVERSITY
Florida's first the University of Florida is also one of
America's truly distinctive universities. Along with Ohio
State and the University of Minnesota, the University of Flor-
ida offers more academic programs on a single campus than
any of the nation's other universities, private and public. It is
also among the nation's 25 largest universities; yet its
division into 20 colleges and schools, with their 140 depart-
ments, gives students the opportunity to know and work
closely'with most of their classmates and teachers. Its loca-
tion in Florida's University City Gainesville, dedicated
from its founding to serve as a home away from home for
college students adds immeasurably to the educational
and social opportunities for students.
In short, the University of Florida is a residential campus,
with rich resources available because of its size, that pro-
vides a learning and living environment for the whole per-
son: Daily contacts in class, in clubs, between classes and
in dormitories and apartments with other students from
every spectrum of society and with virtually every career
goal known to humanity .... Daily opportunities to attend
concerts, theater productions, art shows, seminars, athletic
contests, lectures, and a myriad of other events featuring na-
tionally and internationally known talents Daily com-
munications with a faculty that is comprised of some of the
nation's leading scholars in their fields, working in labora-
tories and libraries among the best in the nation. More than


1,400 faculty members and graduate students are awarded
research and training grants annually, ranking the University
of Florida among the nation's top 40 research universities.

UNDERGRADUATE OPPORTUNITIES
Because it is a complete university freshmen through
professional and postdoctoral the University of Florida of-
fers more for its undergraduate students.
Undergraduates aspiring for graduate or professional de-
grees can study in libraries and laboratories equipped for
almost every advanced degree offered anywhere in the
world. They study alongside advanced graduate and pro-
fessional students. They can begin their research as early as
they desire, even as freshmen. They can receive counseling
from a faculty that has been assembled from major univer-
sities in the nation and the world. The University of Florida
ranks among the nation's top 25 universities, whose
bachelor's degree holders move into graduate programs. Its
preparatory programs for admission to graduate and pro-
fessional schools are recognized by the world's leading uni-
versities.
Students desiring only bachelor's degrees can choose from
111 majors, almost all of them strengthened by correlative
graduate degree programs. This means students can enrich
their bachelor's degree programs with advanced courses de-
signed for both undergraduates and graduates. It also means










a wider selection of course opportunities outside a student's
major field of study. Above all, it means an undergraduate
student pursues his studies in a complete academic atmos-
phere.


COSMOPOLITAN STUDENT BODY
Students attending the University of Florida come from
every county in the state, every state in the nation, and last
year from 96 foreign countries. Eighty-five per cent of its en-
tering freshmen earned admission test scores above the na-
tional mean. Thirty-eight per cent of the undergraduates are
transfers from community and other colleges. They experi-
ence no difficulty competing academically with students
who begin their work at the University of Florida. The Uni-
versity of Florida ranks fifth among state universities and
14th among all universities in the nation in the number of
National Merit and Merit Achievement Scholars who choose
to attend. But the University of Florida is not an elitist uni-
versity. And it does not want to be. Students who do not
qualify academically for admission to a Florida state univer-
sity may be admitted under special programs. These stu-
dents, and any others who desire, are offered special instruc-
tional programs to help them progress scholastically. These
programs have the central goal of equipping students with
the ability to complete their degrees.


LEADERSHIP TRAINING
Perhaps above all else, the University of Florida offers its
students leadership training and experience. Its results are
proven. Half of Florida's Cabinet members, in addition to
the Governor, are UF graduates, as are approximately one-
third of the state senators, members of the state House of
Representatives, Floridians in the U.S. Congress and state Su-


preme Court justices. Half of ten persons named in 1978 as
Florida's most influential governmental, professional and
business persons had attended the University of Florida.
Thousands of other Florida graduates occupy key positions
in every known professional endeavor throughout the state,
in the nation and in many parts of the world.
There are reasons behind the University of Florida's lead-
ership training success. The contained campus in a larger
community whose principal focus is on the University -
provides thousands of leadership opportunities. Student
Government at the University of Florida is one of the
nation's most independent and influential. Every college has
its own student council. Almost every committee for gov-
ernance of the University as a whole and there are dozens
of them have student members. The University turns
many of its activities over to students to implement. Stu-
dents serve on advisory boards and councils in city and
county government. Hundreds of students are employed in
career-developing positions and serve internships in
Gainesville area institutions. More than 200 student organi-
zations, plus fraternities and sororities, require full slates of
officers. Virtually every academic offering provides oppor-
tunity for membership in chapters of national student organ-
izations. Churches and civic groups in the community pro-
vide special programs and opportunities just for University

HISTORY
Florida's oldest, the University of Florida traces its begin-
nings to the takeover of the private Kingsbury Academy in
Ocala by the state-funded East Florida Seminary in 1853. The
Seminary was moved to Gainesville following the Civil War.
It was consolidated with the state's land-grant Florida Agri-
cultural College, then in Lake City, to become the University
of Florida in Gainesville in 1906, with an initial enrollment of
102. Until 1947, UF was the men's school and one of only
three state colleges. Others were Florida State College for
Women (now FSU) and Florida A&M. Since 1947, when the
student body numbered 8,177 men and 601 women, UF has
grown to more than 33,000, largest in the state, alternating
years with the University of Tennessee as the South's largest,
18th largest in the nation.


SETTING AND ENVIRONMENT
The University of Florida is located in Gainesville, a city of
81,371 situated in north central Florida, midway between the
Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico. The city is known as an
agricultural and small industrial center.
In addition to a moderate climate, Gainesville offers many
other, advantages to students of the University. A golf course
is within easy reach of the campus, and swimming and boat-
ing accommodations are available at nearby springs and
rivers. The lakes in the vicinity abound in fresh water fish,
while the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico are within
a two hours' drive. As the seat of Alachua County, the city is
the focal pojnt of diversified industrial and farming ac-
tivities.
Practically every religious denomination is represented in
the Gainesville area including: Presbyterian, Baptist, Luther-
an, Methodist, Catholic, Episcopal, Christian, Seventh Day


Adventist, Church of Christ Scientist, Church of Christ,
Christian and Missionary Alliance, Advent Christian, Jewish,
Church of Latter Day Saints, Church of the Nazarene, As-
sembly of God, Apostolic Church of Christ, Church of God,
Disciples of Christ, Pentecostal Holiness, United Church of
Christ, and Unitarian-Universalists. Several of these de-
nominations maintain chapels adjacent to the campus.
These include St. Augustine Chapel (Catholic Student Cen-
ter), the Baptist Student Union, Wesley Foundation (Meth-
odist Student Center), Chapel of the Incarnation (Episcopal
Student Center), Church of Christ, B'nai B'rith Hillel Founda-
tion (Jewish), the Lutheran Student Association, the Latter
Day Saints (Mormon), Disciples-Presbyterian Student Cen-
ter and the Society of Friends (Quaker). All the chapels carry
on extensive programs of vital interest to University stu-
dents.


TRANSPORTATION
A schedule of daily bus service, with connections to all
points of the United States, is maintained by Southeastern
Greyhound Lines and Trailways Bus System. The Regional
Transit system serves the city of Gainesville. Eastern Airlines
has daily flights with connections to all parts of the U.S.
Charter Air and Air Florida serve all major areas of the state.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONAL
UNITS SERVING ALL
COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS
THE INTERCOLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER AND
INFORMATION SCIENCES. During the last three decades
electronic information processing machines with capability
many orders of magnitude beyond their predecessors have
come into being. Though still in their infancy they are al-.
ready extending man's capability to solve problems in every
field of human activity. Against this background, the organi-
zation of a curriculum dedicated to a broad sector of human
endeavor was necessary. Toward this end the Intercollege
Department of Computer and Information Sciences was
created in 1971.,The department currently offers degree pro-
grams in the Colleges of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Business
Administration, Engineering and an area of specialization in
the technical communications degree program in the Col-
lege of journalism and Communications. Degree programs
within other colleges are under study.


Subject areas found within the CIS curricula include pro-
gramming, systems analysis, software development tech-
niques, information representation and transformation, lan-
guage translators, operating systems, computer organization,
and applications.
This background prepares the student for a v;ide range of
careers in the business, industrial, scientific, civic and aca-
demic worlds wherein information flow and analysis is of
critical importance to decision making.
In addition to the degree programs, several service courses
are available for those who need experience in computer ap-
plications for proper career preparation. For further informa-
tion, contact the CIS department office in 512 Weil Hall.
THE CENTER FOR LATIN AMERICAN STUDIES is the Uni-
versity unit responsible for directing or coordinating in-
terdisciplinary instructional and research programs related
to the Latin.American and Caribbean area. It is a budgeted
unit within the University and is administered by a Director
immediately responsible to the Vice President for. Academic
Affairs.
The Center sponsors conferences, publishes the results of
scholarly research related to Latin America, and cooperates
with other University units in overseas development and
training programs. It administers a program with Univer-
sidad de los Andes, Bogota, Colombia and a program in Bra-
zil for the State University System and offers programs in
Latin American Studies leading to a B.A. degree, and B.S.,
M.A. and Ph.D. Certificates in Latin American Studies; and
an interdisciplinary Master of Arts in Latin American Studies.
The Center also administers specialized research and train-
ing programs in Caribbean migration and the Amazon.
The DEPARTMENT OF MILITARY SCIENCE offers the four
year program and the two year program of Army ROTC.
Completion of either of these programs by a student leads to
a commission in one of the branches of the United States
Army, U.S. Army Reserve or the Army National Guard.
Freshman/Sophomore AROTC carries no service obligation.
Two, three and four year scholarships are available to in-
terested students who can qualify.
THE DEPARTMENT OF NAVAL SCIENCE offers a two-year
and a four-year program of Navy-Marine ROTC. Upon suc-
cessful completion of this officer training program, the grad-
uate receives a commission in the U.S. Navy or U.S. Marine
Corps and is immediately assigned to active duty. Scholar-
ships covering two, three, or four full years of study are avail-
able to male and female students who can qualify.
THE DEPARTMENT OF AEROSPACE STUDIES offers male
and female students both two-year and four-year programs
in Air Force ROTC. Completion of either of these officer ed-
ucation programs leads to a commission in the United States

Music, (6) Music Education, (7) Opera Workshop and (8) En-
sembles.
THE DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL PHYSICAL EDUCATION
OFFERS a wide variety of physical activity courses to all stu-
dents enrolled at the University. The Department operates
on the premise that although all people need physical ac-
tivity, all do not need or care for the same kind. Conse-
uently, the department offers many avenues for the stu-
ent to enhance physical health and understand its relation
to total health.
It is hoped that by developing competencies in at least
one physical activity, students will be able to make self-de-
termining decisions concerning the role that exercise' will
play in their personal lives.
Students may elect to take any course under the
satisfactory-unsatisfactory option. For further information

THE FLORIDA STATE MUSEUM
The Florida State Museum was created by an act of the
Legislature in 1917 as a department of the University of Flor-
ida. Through its affiliation with the University it carries the
dual responsibility as the State Museum of Florida and the
University Museum.
The Museum operates as a center of research in the natu-
ral sciences and anthropology. Its functions as an educa-
tional arm of the University are carried forward through in-
terpretive displays and scientific and popular publications.
Under the administrative control of the Director are the
three departments of the Museum: Natural Sciences is con-
cerned with the study and expansion of the research collec-
tions as well as research in a variety of areas in functional
and evolutionary biology, sociobiology and ecology; Social
Sciences is concerned with the study of human variation and
cultures, both historic and prehistoric; Interpretation is con-
cerned with the interpretation of knowledge through
museum education and exhibit techniques. Members of the
scientific and educational staff of the Museum hold dual ap-
pointments in appropriate teaching departments. Through
these appointments they participate in both the under-
graduate and graduate teaching programs and supervision of
graduate students.
Scientific reports are published in the Bulletin of the Flor-
ida State Museum, Biological Sciences, the Ripley P. Bullen
Monographs in Anthropology and History, and in the Con-
tributions of the Florida State Museum, Anthropology and
History.
The research collections are under the care of curators
who encourage the scientific study of the Museum's hold-
ings. Materials are constantly being added to the collections
both through gifts from friends and as the result of research
activities of the Museum staff. The archaeological and
ethnological collections are noteworthy. There are extensive
study collections of birds, mammals, mollusks, reptiles, am-
phibians, fish, invertebrate and vertebrate fossils, as well as
archives of animal sounds associated with the bioacoustics
laboratory.
The Allyn Museum of Entomology, Sarasota, Florida, is a
unit of the Department of Natural Sciences, Florida State
Museum. The combined Sarasota and Gainesville holdings
in Lepidoptera rank the Allyn Museum of Entomology as the
largest in the western hemisphere and the premier Lepidop-
tera research center in the world. The Allyn Museum of En-
tomology publishes the Bulletin of the Allyn Museum of En-
tomology and sponsors the Karl Jordan Medal..The Allyn
Collection serves as a major source for taxonomic and
biogeographic research by a number of Florida State
Museum and Department of Zoology faculty and students,
as well as a great many visiting entomologists from around
the world.
, The Florida State Herbarium is a unit of the Department of
Natural Sciences, Florida State Museum. It is an important
scientific resource in which some 250,000 specimens are
curated.. Largest in the state and one of the largest in the
Southeast, the herbarium contains the most complete col-
lections in existence of Florida vascular plants and fungi. It
also contains important collections of tropical American

bryophytes and Florida lichens. In addition, there is a partic-
ularly complete, collection of seeds. The portfolio of
botanical illustrations and the growing botanical library
complement the ever-expanding collections of plant spec-
imens.
Opportunities are provided for students, staff, and visiting
scientists to use the collections. Research and fieldwork are
presently sponsored in the anthropological, paleontological
and zoological fields. Students interested in these specialties
should make application to the appropriate teaching depart-
ment.
Graduate assistantships are available in the Museum in
areas of specialization emphasized in its research programs.
Facilities are available for graduate students.
The Museum is located at the corner of Museum Road and
Newell Drive in a modern facility completed in 1970. The
public halls are open from nine until five each weekday, in-
cluding Saturday, and from one to five on Sundays, and
holidays (closed Christmas Day). There is no admission
charge. The Museum is frequently used by University and
public school classes. Classes for children and special public
programs are also offered for members of the University
community and the general public.


GENERAL STATE AND
UNIVERSITY AGENCIES
THE FLORIDA COOPERATIVE EXTENSION SERVICE.
The transfer and application of knowledge through non-
resident educational programs is the primary purpose of the
Florida Cooperative Extension Service, a component of the
Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences. The educational
programs are tailored to fit the needs of many audiences in
areas of agricultural production including energy manage-
ment, marketing and utilization; home economics; com-
munity resource development; natural resource manage-
ment, 4-H youth development, energy and marine sciences.
Audiences include adults and youth, rural and urban
citizens, minorities and people from all economic levels. The
Cooperative Extension Service is administered by the Uni-
versity of Florida under a memorandum of understanding
with USDA. There is also a cooperative program funded
through federal grants with Florida A&M University. The
basic legislative authority makes provision for cooperation
with local government. In Florida, county programs are car-
ried out jointly between the University and respective
county governments in the 67 counties. The Extension Serv-
ice along with Resident Instruction and Research in IFAS
form a functional model typifying the tripartite organiza-
tional structure envisioned in the Morrill Act for the Land
Grant College system.
The OFFICE OF UNIVERSITY RELATIONS is responsible
for the development of public relations, including visitor re-
ception, cooperating with all campus agencies and organiza-
tions in the planning and implementation of their public re-
lations activities and serving as the University representative
with civic organizations which work with the University and
are not professionally related to a particular school or col-
lege. University Relations coordinates with all campus agen-
cies dealing with off-campus publics in a continuing effort
to develop two-way communications with the public and to
encourage public support and understanding of the Univer-
sity, its programs and higher education.
The DIVISION OF INFORMATION AND PUBLICATIONS
SERVICES serves University central administration and Uni-
versity Educational and General budgeted academic units,
departments, service offices and other campus-related or-
ganizations by distributing information through mass media
outlets, and providing communication services for the cam-
pus community. It interprets the University's programs, poli-
cies and objectives through newspapers and magazines, ra-
dio and television broadcasts, publications, photographs,
audio-visual presentations, special displays and exhibits, and
community relations projects. The Division produces the
University Digest printed in the Independent Alligator, and
has complete video tape production facilities used to de-


velop television programming for both commercial and pub-
lic broadcasting stations. It assists other units by coordi-
nating copy content, design and preliminary production for
booklets, folders, brochures, and other printed material, and
assists in preparing bid specifications for printing.
The OFFICE OF DEVELOPMENT AND ALUMNI AFFAIRS is
the campus headquarters for the University of Florida Na-
tional Alumni Association, Inc. and the University of Florida
Foundation, Inc.
The University of Florida National Alumni Association,
Inc. brings together the organized efforts of alumni and the
promotion of the interests and needs of the University and
strives to encourage continuous participation by alumni in
the life of the University.
The University of Florida Foundation exists to encourage
support from the private sector to the University for both
operating and capital purposes. It is a private corporation or-
ganized to hold funds for the benefit of the University, to in-
vest them and to insure the maximum value of the
University's private support.
THE UNIVERSITY GALLERY is an integral part of the Fine
Arts college. The Gallery is located on the campus facing
Southwest 13th Street (or U.S. 441). An atrium and a contem-
porary sculptural fountain are two pleasing features of the
Gallery's distinctive architecture style. The Gallery, with 3000
square feet of display space, is completely modern, air-con-
ditioned and maintains a varied exhibition schedule of the
visual arts during the year. The content of exhibitions dis-
played in the University Gallery'range from the creations by
traditional masters through to the latest and most ex-
perimental works by the modern avant garde. The minor arts
of yesterday and today along with the creations of oriental
and primitive cultures form topics for exhibitions scheduled.
Besides its regularly scheduled exhibitions, which show for
approximately four to six weeks, the Gallery originates sever-
al unique exhibitions from its own and other museums' col-
lections each year. The Gallery's hours are from 9 A.M. to 5
P.M. daily except Sunday when they are 1 P.M. to 5 P.M. The
Gallery is closed on Saturdays and holidays.
ART DEPARTMENT GALLERY, the teaching gallery, is lo-
cated adjacent to the Department's office area on the third
floor of the Classroom Building in the Artchitecture and Fine
Arts complex. As a direct and physical adjunct to the Art
Department's teaching program, this Gallery displays smaller
traveling exhibitions of .merit as well as one man shows by
the faculty artists and student exhibitions. The Gallery is
open Monday through Friday from 8 A.M. to noon and from
1 P.M. to 5 P.M. It is closed Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
THE CENTER FOR LATIN AMERICAN AND TROPICAL
ARTS is an interdisciplinary Center that provides coordi-
nation, direction, and focus to strengthen existing programs
related to the Fine Arts within the College of Fine Arts. The
Center's faculty is bound together by a desire to relate their
research and teaching activities to the broader concepts con-
cerned with the fine arts of various world cultures. The Cen-
ter broadens and strengthens existing interdepartmental re-
lations and provides additional stimuli and mechanisms for
translating results of research into more viable forms that re-
late directly to societal needs. It also establishes more effec-
tive lines for the training of able students at the under-
graduate, graduate, and adult education levels in various
aspects of the fine arts.
THE UNIVERSITY BROADCAST FACILITY is operated by
the College of journalism and Communications It includes
WUFT, Channel 5, a public broadcasting television station
(PBS), WUFT-FM, a non-commercial radio station (NPR) 89.1
MHz, WRUF-AM, a commercial radio station (CBS) 850 KHz,
and WRUF-FM, a commercial FM station, (CBS) stereo, 103.7
MHz.
Approximately 100 students are employed in these broad-
casting operations. Thus, in addition to the broad academic
background provided in the university's classrooms and lab-
oratories, these work opportunities provide a valuable expe-
rience in day-to-day operations typical of the industry. Stu-
dents perform such functions as reporter, anchor-person,
news producer, recording engineer, director, cameraman,
and announcer, all under the guidance of professional

broadcasters. The college has earned a nationwide reputa-
tion for the demonstrated effectiveness of this academic and
work experience training.
WUFT-TV operates at the maximum power authorized for
a television station of its classification; 100,000 watts visual
and 20,000 watts aural. The over-air broadcast signal encom-
passes a 65-mile radius from the station's transmitter site
northwest of Gainesville, and reaches 16 counties in North
Central Florida. WUFT-TV's signal is carried by more than 20
cable companies in the state, expanding the coverage area
even beyond these broadcast boundaries. The station's pro-
gramming is a mixture of programs acquired through the
Public Broadcasting Service (PBS), Florida Public Broad-
casting, Inc. (FPB), various public broadcasting consortium,
independent distributors and locally produced programs. Of
the latter category WUFT-TV produces an evening newscast
and a television magazine program, both aired on week-
nights, in addition to specially produced features and
documentaries. The station has won numerous local, re-
gional and national awards for outstanding promotion and
advertising campaigns it has conducted in support of pro-
grams and activities, and WUFT-TV consistently ranks at or
near the top in percentage of viewership compared to other
public TV stations in the nation.
SWUFT-FM, with 100,000 watts of power, reaches 16 North
Central Florida counties. The only public radio station in that
area, WUFT-FM broadcasts on a 24 hour a day schedule, year
round. The station presents classical, jazz and folk music, in
addition to news and public affairs information. The station
provides a variety of on-air, production and reporting expe-
rience for broadcast majors of the College of Journalism and
Communications. These students are under the direct gui-
dance of professional public radio broadcasters. With a
strong emphasis on local production and programming,
'WUFT-FM is a satellite member station of the National Pub-
lic Radio and Florida Public Radio Networks and aims to
serve and reflect the diverse needs of the communities of
North Central Florida.
WRUF-FM serves the contemporary music audience with
album rock, while WRUF-AM's music is of a more adult na-
ture, featuring adult middle-of-the-road music from the 40's,
50's, and 60's. Student communicators produce and broad-
cast regular news programs over both stations under faculty
supervision.
The student's proximity to, and participation in, this di-
verse broadcast operation brings a greater understanding of
the opportunities and obligations that exist in the field of
broadcasting.
THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA PRESS
The Univerity of Florida is host to the state university
system's scholarly publishing facility, University Presses of
Florida. The goals of the systemwide publishing program im-
plemented by University Presses of Florida are expressed in
Board of Regents' policy:
". to publish books, monographs, journals, and other
types of scholarly or creative works. The Press shall give
special attention to works of distinguished scholarship in
academic areas of particular interest and usefulness to
the citizens of Florida. The Press 'shall publish original
works by state university faculty members, but it may
also publish meritorious works originating elsewhere and
may republish out-of-print works."
Each university's faculty publishing committee is inde-
pendently responsible for selecting works for publication
through the facilities of University Presses of Florida. At the
University of Florida, the University Press Board of Managers
oversees the locally determined publishing program.
The purpose of the University of Florida Press is to en-
courage, seek out, and publish original and scholarly man-
uscripts which will aid in developing the University as a rec-
ognized center of research and scholarship.
The Press Board of Managers, including the director and
fifteen faculty experts appointed by the President of the
University, determines policies of publication relating to the
acceptance or rejection of manuscripts and the issuance of
author contracts. Each year the board examines numerous
manuscripts submitted not only by the University faculty


but by authors from all over the United States, Europe, and
Latin America.
University Presses of Florida is a member of the Associa-
tion of American University Presses and of the Association of
American Publishers, Inc.


ORGANIZED RESEARCH
THE DIVISION OF SPONSORED RESEARCH was estab-
lished by an act of the legislature to support and to foster
sponsored research and training as a resource essential to ex-
cellence in education and to provide maximum service to
the State. The Division is a development arm of the Univer-
sity, coordinating its efforts closely with the Office of Aca-
demic Affairs. The Division of Sponsored Research is
directed by the Dean for Graduate Studies and Research.
All proposals for sponsorship of research, grants-in-aid,
and training grants are approved by the director. Nego-
tiations on administrative matters with potential contracting
agencies or sponsors of research and training projects are
carried out by the Division.
The activities of the Division of Sponsored Research are
intended to stimulate growth and to assist in expanding a
balanced research and training program throughout the Uni-
versity. These activities are intimately related to the support
of the graduate and professional program. The services pro-
vided are designed to relieve the principal investigators in
many departments of detailed administrative and reporting
duties connected with some sponsored programs. The
duties and responsibilities of the Division, of course, do not
supplant the prerogative of the principal investigator who
seeks sponsors for his own project nor the responsibility of
the investigator for the scientific integrity of the project. In
direct contacts between a principal investigator and a poten-
tial sponsor, however, coordination with the Division is nec-
essary to insure uniformity in contract requirements and to
avoid duplication of negotiations with the same sponsor.
The Division of Sponsored Research is administratively re-
sponsible to the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Policies
and procedures for the Division are developed by a board of
directors working with the director within the general
framework of the administrative policies and procedures of
the University.
THE AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT .STATION, the re-
search function unit of the Institute of Food and Agricultural
Sciences (IFAS), has the responsibility of developing new
knowledge and technology toward solution of agricultural
problems in the State. Research is administered through the
office of the Dean for Research located on the University of
Florida campus. IFAS research is conducted throughout the
State. Twenty-one departments are located on campus-Ag-
ricultural Engineering, Agricultural and Extension Education,
Agronomy, Animal Science, Botany, Dairy Science, En-
tomology and Nematology, Food and Resource Economics,
Food Science and Human Nutrition, 4-H and Other Youth
Programs,. School of Forest Resources and Conservation,
Fruit Crops, Home Economics, Microbiology and Cell Sci-
ence, Ornamental Horticulture, Plant Pathology, Poultry Sci-
ence, Soil Science, Statistics, Vegetable Crops, and Preven-
tive Medicine (College of Veterinary Medicine). In addition,
six units vital to its research programs, namely: Editorial, Li-
brary, Business Service, and Centers for Rural Development,
Environmental Programs, and Biomass are located on cam-
pus.
In order to best serve the varied needs of Florida's diver-
sified agriculture, Agricultural Research and Education Cen-
ters are located at numerous locations having different
climatic conditions, soil types and crops. Intensive research
is conducted in all fields of agriculture such as citrus, vegeta-
ble, field crops, livestock, pastures, and many others. Agri-
culture Research and Education Centers are located in
Homestead, Belle Glade, Bradenton, Lake Alfred, Quincy,
Sanford, and Tallahassee (Florida A & M University). A Re-
search and Education Center is also located at Welaka, Flor-
ida and is concerned largely with biological research pro-
gams and youth programs, Agricultural Research Centers are







GENERAL INFORMATION


located in Monticello, Ft. Pierce, Immokalee, Dover, Ft.
Lauderdale, Hastings, Ona, Apopka, Marianna, Live Oak,
Leesburg, and Jay. Cooperative research is conducted with
the Brooksville Beef Cattle Research Station, Brooksville, a
USDA field laboratory, in its beef cattle and pasture produc-
tion and management programs, with the National Weather
Service, Ruskin, in the Federal Frost Warning Service for fruit
and vegetable producers and shippers, and with numerous
Florida agricultural agencies and organizations.
Results of IFAS research are published in scientific jour-
nals, bulletins, monographs, circulars, and mimeograph re-
ports which are available to Florida residents usually without
charge upon request to the Editorial Department of the Agri-
cultural Experiment Station in Gainesville. The Agricultural
Experiment Station cooperates closely with the Cooperative
Extension Service in providing research findings for prompt
dissemination.
THE FLORIDA ENGINEERING AND INDUSTRIAL EXPERI-
MENT STATION (EIES) developed from early research ac-
tivities of the engineering faculty and was officially estab-
lished in 1941 by the Legislature as an integral part of the
College of Engineering. Its mandate is "to organize and pro-
mote the prosecution of research projects of engineering
and related sciences, with special reference to such of these
problems as are important to the industries of Florida."
The College and the Station form a close interlocking rela-
tionship with the EIES serving as the research arm of the Col-
lege. In this capacity the EIES fulfills its function of conduct-
ing research on many of Florida's most significant problems
ranging from energy to water resources, environmental is-
sues to health-related activities. Of course many of these
problems transcend the State and are also of national con-
cern. The Station has developed a national and international
reputation in many areas and the faculty are at the forefront
of their fields. This has a major positive impact on the Col-
lege since it makes good teaching possible, exposes students
to many important engineering problems normally not en-
countered in a college program, and helps the faculty better
instill students with the qualifications necessary for the suc-
cessful practice of their profession. Moreover, both under-
graduate and graduate students frequently find em-
ployment on research projects.
The Station receives a small but important portion of its
operating funds from the State; this funding base results in a
near 10 for 1 return from contracts and grants with govern-
ment agencies, foundations and industrial organizations.
The Station has excellent facilities and faculty in many di-
verse fields; a few such examples are; solar energy,
bioengineering, energy conservation and conversion,
ceramics, new materials development, device physics, robot-
ics, geotechnics, transportation research, coastal and
oceanographic engineering, microelectronics, air and water
pollution control, nuclear pumped lasers, systems analysis,
fluid dynamics and hydrology, technology for enhanced oil
recovery, lightning research.
THE FLORIDA-ARCHITECTURE & BUILDING RESEARCH
CENTER is a unit of the College of Architecture established
to foster and encourage research related to the disciplines
represented in the college. These include architecture, build-
ing construction, landscape architecture, interior design, and
urban and regional planning. The Center also provides as-
sistance to faculty and graduate students in establishing co-
operative efforts with other units of the University.
THE BUREAU OF ECONOMIC AND BUSINESS RESEARCH
is the research arm of the College of Business Adminis-
tration. Through its four programs-forecasting, population,
survey, and publications-the Bureau generates and dis-
seminates demographic, economic and business informa-
tion about Florida. Major sources of this information are the
annual Florida Statistical Abstract and the biennial Older
People in Florida published by the Bureau. Reports of Bu-
reau research are published in the monthly Economic
Leaflets and Florida Economic Indicators, both free to Flor-
ida residents, and Florida Building Permits; in the quarterly
Business and Economic Dimensions, Population Studies,
and The Florida Outlook; in the annual Florida Estimates of
Population for state, counties and municipalities; and spe-
cial reports. The Bureau makes it possible for teaching pro-


fessors to engage in organized research and provides re-
search training for undergraduate and graduate students.
THE PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION CLEARING SERVICE is a
research, publication, and service adjunct of the Depart-
ment of Political Science in the College of Liberal Arts and
Sciences. It carries on a continuous program of research on
public administration and public policy in Florida; it pub-
lishes research and surveys of governmental and adminis-
trative problems in both scientific and popular monograph
form. In addition, the Public Administration Clearing Service
coordinates the programs of instruction and public service
training in cooperation with other units of the University.
THE COMMUNICATION RESEARCH CENTER, the re-
search arm of the College of Journalism and Communica-.
tions, conducts pure and applied research in a variety of
fields of mass communication, including advertising, broad-
casting, journalism and public relations. It also serves as a re-
source for college faculty and students in their own research,
assists the media and other organizations in their research
pursuits, and sponsors programs related to the mass com-
munication needs of the many communities served by the
University. The Center is also headquarters for the Florida
Opinion Poll.
THE DIVISION OF BUDGET AND ANALYSIS is the prima-
ry unit responsible for financial and budgetary planning and
control, for the University. The Division is, instrumental in
,seeking the resources necessary to achieve the goals of the
University and works with the Vice Presidents to achieve the
most effective allocation of these resources. Data Adminis-
tration for the University is coordinated by the staff, who
also conduct extensive institutional research.
FACILITIES PLANNING performs the analysis and plan-
ning required to ensure that available fixed capital outlay re-
sources are used in providing adequate facilities for the
many and diverse programs of the University of Florida at
minimum long-range cost. Work is carried out by the pro-
fessional staff and related committees in the areas of campus
planning, space assignment, coordination of architectural
design and construction of facilities.
THE FLORIDA WATER RESOURCES RESEARCH CENTER,
which is funded by the Department of the Interior, was es-
tablished in 1964 at the University of Florida as the result of
the passage of P.L. 88-379--The Water Resources Research
Act of 1964-"to stimulate, sponsor, provide for, and supple-
ment present programs for conduct of research, investiga-
tion, experiments, and the training of scientists in the fields
of water and of resources which affect water." The Center's
Director operates under the general policy guidance of an
advisory committee appointed by the President of the Uni-
versity. Research projects administered by the Center and
pertaining to the achievement of adequate statewide water
resource management, water quality and water quantity are
being conducted by professors in various departments at the
University of Florida, and other colleges and universities in
-the State. Graduate assistants may be employed on these
projects or other activities of the Center.

INSTITUTE OF FOOD AND
AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES
THE INSTITUTE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURAL SCI-
ENCES is the University of Florida's statewide agricultural re-
search and educational organization. IFAS programs extend
into every county, and reach people in virtually every com-
munity in Florida.
The primary mission of IFAS is to help Florida realize its
maximum potential for agricultural development, and to
contribute to the solution of many social, economic, envi-
ronmental and cultural problems of concern to the people
of the state. This vital developmental mission is carried out
through the three functions of resident instruction, research,
and extension. These are carefully interrelated to provide a
highly coordinated effort for the benefit of Florida its
citizens and its industry. This effort is guided by the Vice
President for Agricultural Affairs.
The offices of the Vice President, as well as the Deans for
Resident Instruction, Research and Extension are located
near the center of campus in McCarty Hall. Administrative
offices of the School of Forest Resources and Conservation
are located in Newins-Ziegler Hall. The Hume Agricultural
Library is located in the McCarty Hall complex.
The resident instruction programs conducted through the
College of Agriculture and the School of Forest Resources
and Conservation, are concerned with educating young men
and women for the nation's growing and increasingly com-
plex agricultural industry. The curricula for the different
fields of study are structured to provide the business, tech-
nological and science education necessary for graduates to
meet the ever changing needs of a diverse and highly spe-
cialized agriculture, as well as related business and industry.
All academic departments offer an undergraduate program
leading to a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture. The School
of Forest Resources and Conservation offers an under-
graduate program which leads to the Bachelor of Science in
Forest Resources and Conservation. Graduate programs at
the masters level are offered by all academic units. The Doc-
tor of Philosophy degree is offered in 12 specialties.
The mission of the IFAS research programs is one of devel-
opment, as well as improving existing technology to enable
Florida's agricultural industry to become more efficient, par-
ticularly in reducing dependence on consumption of fossil
fuels; to improve consumer health and nutrition and to im-
prove the social and economic well-being of producers and
consumers of agricultural commodities and resources.
Through the network of 23 research and education centers,
located in various areas of the state, applied as well as basic
research efforts develop new and improved technology to
meet the agricultural needs of Florida. Additional IFAS re-
search information is contained under THE AGRICULTURAL
EXPERIMENT STATION of the Organized Research section.
The Florida Cooperative Extension Service is administered
by IFAS in cooperation with the several Boards of County
Commissioners in the state and the U.S. Department of Agri-
culture. Extension offices in all 67 counties are responsible
for the transfer and application of knowledge through non-
resident educational programs. These programs are tailored
to fit the needs of the many audiences in agricultural pro-
duction, marketing and utilization; home economics; com-
munity resource development, marine sciences and energy.
Audiences include adults and youth, rural and urban
citizens, minorities and people from all economics levels.
In 1972, the Center for Community and Rural Develop-
ment was established to provide statewide coordination of
education programs in community development for rural
and non-rural .metropolitan areas. This center is concerned
with improving the economic conditiontio's in these areas so
that people have better employment opportunities. Through
support of undergraduate and graduate education the Cen-
ter is assisting in the training of young people to provide
leadership in planning and developing local programs.
Courses of study in the economics of environmental quality,
natural resource planning and development, rural income
and employment, and regional economic planning help
them make definite contributions toward improving the ec-







GENERAL INFORMATION


onomic and social conditions of non-urban areas.
The Center for Environmental and Natural Resources Pro-
grams was created in October, 1973, to provide statewide co-
ordination for the IFAS research and education programs
concerned with solving some of the serious environmental
and natural resources problems related to agriculture
throughout Florida. The Center is involved in developing
ways to protect managed agriculture ecosystems from envi-
ronmental damage, integrating environmental practices into
agricultural production technology and protecting and
enhancing the quality of all of Florida's environment.
In 1980, IFAS received approval for the establishment of
the Center for Biomass Energy Systems. The center coordi-
nates planning, development and implementation of re-
search related to production of various types of plant
biomass, methods of converting biomass to practical forms
of fuel and systems for utilizing bio-fuels and their co- and
by-products.
The creation of an Office of International Programs in
1966, formalized the international commitment of IFAS. The
Office of International Programs is responsible for adminis-
tration, coordination and development of all activities which
build or strengthen the international dimension of IFAS. This
includes participation in the determination of contract and
grant policy, development of outside funding sources for in-
ternational research and training projects, and assistance in
the initiation of new education programs. Integration of in-
ternational programs into each department is a specific ob-
jective. This provides a unique opportunity for focusing
maximum resources available on the project. Both faculty in
the state and those overseas benefit by the interchange of
ideas. Education and research is handled under the same of-
fice by the Center for Tropical Agriculture established in
1965.


THE J. HILLIS MILLER'HEALTH CENTER
Outreach to people through patient care, education,
research and community service has been the guiding
rule of the University of Florida's J. Hillis Miller Health Cen-
ter since its founding in 1956.
Today, these services emanate from a modern institution


that encompasses six colleges medicine, nursing, pharma-
cy, health related professions, dentistry and veterinary medi-
cine and two teaching hospitals Shands for human pa-
tients and the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital for
animals.
Shands Hospital, recently granted official status as a
private non-profit corporation, serves as a major referral cen-
ter for modern patient care and clinical training of students
in the health professions. The Veterinary Medical Teaching
Hospital serves the state's practicing veterinarians by provid-
ing a modern, well-equipped facility for referring animal pa-
tients with rare or complicated diseases.
The state's first college of dentistry became operational at
the Health Center in 1975, followed by the first college of
veterinary medicine in late 1977.
Both the care of patients and the education of health prac-
titioners are strengthened by the Health Center's affiliations
with the nearby Veterans Administration Medical Center,
plus a well-developed, cooperative education program with
11 urban hospitals-and three colleges in Jacksonville, and an
educational affiliation with four hospitals in Pensacola.
Presently, some 3,500 students are receiving training at the
Health Center through 42 different health professions pro-
grams. These academic programs help'the students to un-
derstand that health care involves the health team: the phy-
sician; the nurse; the dentist; the pharmacist; persons in
health related professions; the researcher; the educator; the
counselor. Students learn that by training together, and later
by working together, they will contribute more effectively to
the patient's well being.
In addition, the Health Center's extensive involvement in
research (a multi-million dollar enterprise of its own) brings
the students and health care practitioners in touch with
some of the latest information regarding diagnosis, treat-
ment and prevention of illness.
Since the opening of its first units the Colleges of Medi-
cine and Nursing -the Health Center has become a leading
center for health care, education and research in the South-
east. The institution is located on the southern edge of the
University of Florida campus and is named for the late presi-
dent of the university, Dr. J. Hillis Miller. Dr. Miller's vision
and determination helped formulate the early planning of
the health complex as an integral part of the university.










ADMISSIONS



APPLICATION FOR ADMISSIONS
Application for admission to any undergraduate College,
School or Division of the University must be made to the
Admissions Section of the Office of the Registrar on the
forms prescribed and by the dates indicated below. It is
quite proper to correspond with Deans, Directors or Depart-
ment Chairmen, but such contact with University officers
does not in any way eliminate the necessity for filing a
formal application in the Office of the Registrar by the dates
specified.
How to Apply: An applicant should address a request to
the Admissions Section, Office of the Registrar, University of
Florida asking for application forms. Forms and directions for
completion of applications vary with the level of entry at the
University and the applicant should indicate that forms are
being requested for admission as a Freshman, Under-
graduate Transfer, Postbaccalaureate, Graduate, Dental,
Law, Medical, Veterinary Medicine, or Special student, as the
case might be.
IMPORTANT NOTE: An application for admission must be
filed for the specific term that the studeht wishes to enter
the University and will be considered for entrance in that,
term ONLY. Applicants wishing to change their planned en-
try date should contact the Admissions Office for applica-
tion instructions. An approval for admission is valid ONLY
for entrance in the term specified in the admission notice
and does not in any way imply that approval would also be
given for entrance in any other term.


GENERAL STATEMENT
The University encourages applications from qualified ap-
plicants of both sexes from all cultural, racial, religious, and
ethnic groups. The University does not discriminate on the
basis of handicap in admission or access to its programs and
activities. Both the Educational Testing Service (SAT) and
The American College Testing Program (ACT) have
brochures describing special testing arrangements for handi-
capped applicants and there are alternate admissions pro-
cedures for handicapped applicants who are unable to take
the required tests.
A brief summary of the general requirements for admis-
sion or readmission to any college or division of the Univer-
sity is given below:
1. A satisfactory academic record. Each applicant must
furnish a complete chronological record of educational in-
stitutions previously attended. Official transcripts must be
submitted in accordance with instructions which accom-
pany the application form. '
2. Satisfactory.scores on achievement tests or aptitude
tests as noted in the application instructions.
3. A satisfactory conduct record.
NOTE: Board of Regents regulations provide that
furnishing false or fraudulent statements or information in
connection with an application for admission or residence
affidavit may result in disciplinary action, denial of admis-
sion, and invalidation of credits or degrees earned.
The specific requirements for readmission (at the same or
a different level) of a student previously enrolled at the Uni-
versity of Florida are given in the STUDENT REGULATIONS
section of this catalog. Consult the index for page number.
The specific requirements for admission to the University
of Florida for the first time as a Freshman, Undergraduate
Transfer, Postbaccalaureate, Graduate, Dental, Law, Medi-
cal, Veterinary Medicine, or Special student may be found in
the appropriate sections which follow. It should be under-
stood, however, that minimum requirements are given and
that admission to the University is a selective process. The
satisfaction of minimum requirements does not auto-
matically guarantee admission. Under Board of Regents pol-


icy up to ten per cent of the students admitted during the
academic year at any level may be admitted as exceptions to
the minimum requirements. The University Admissions
Committee is the agency at the University of Florida that is
responsible for the admission of undergraduate students un-
der this exception policy. For additional information regard-
ing this policy, contact the Minority and Disadvantaged Ad-
missions Officer, Office of the Registrar.
The admission requirements have been arrived at after a
very careful study of the experiences of thousands of stu-
dents over a long period of years. In every case minimum re-
quirements have evolved from studies of student per-
formance at the University of Florida. These studies have
had as a primary objective the identification of factors that
would indicate a reasonable chance for successful comple-
tion of University of Florida work.
The University Admissions Committee is responsible for
administering all admissions to the University and its various
components including applicants approved as exceptions to
the minimum admission requirements set forth in this
catalog.
Students who are planning to enter the University of Flor-
ida for the first time will be considered for admission as fol-
lows:
1. Beginning Freshmen: students who have never at-
tended college. (See following section, ADMISSION AS A
FRESHMAN).
2. Undergraduate Transfers: students who have previously
attended any college or university, regardless of amount
of time spent in attendance or credit earned, but who
have not received a bachelor's degree. (See following sec-
tion, ADMISSION AS A TRANSFER STUDENT TO UNDER-
GRADUATE SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES).
3. Postbaccalaureate Students: students who have re-
ceived a bachelor's degree but do not wish to be admitted
to graduate study. (See following section, ADMISSION AS
A POSTBACCALAUREATE STUDENT.)
4. Graduate Students: candidates for Master's or Doctor's
degrees. (See following section, ADMISSION TO GRADU-
ATE SCHOOL).
5. Dental Students: candidates for admission to the Col-
lege of Dentistry. (See following section, ADMISSION TO
THE COLLEGE OF DENTISTRY).
6. Law Students: candidates for admission to the College
of Law. (See following section, ADMISSION TO THE COL-
LEGE OF LAW).
7. Medical Students: candidates for admission to the Col-
lege of Medicine. (See following section, ADMISSION TO
THE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE).
8. Veterinary Medicine Students: candidates for admission
to the College of Veterinary Medicine. (See following sec-
tion, ADMISSION TO THE COLLEGE OF VETERINARY
MEDICINE).
9. Special Students: applicants who do not fall in one of
the above categories. (See following section, ADMISSION
AS A SPECIAL STUDENT).
10. Transient Students: applicants who wish to enroll for
one term only in order to complete work for transfer back
to parent institution. (See following section, ADMISSION
AS A TRANSIENT STUDENT).



TRAVELING SCHOLAR PROGRAM
The Traveling Scholar Program affords graduate students
at State University System institutions an opportunity to take
course work or Conduct research activities at any of the other
institutions in the System. Course work taken under the aus-
pices of the Traveling Scholar Program at another university
in the System will apply for graduate credit at the student's
home institution. The deans of the graduate schools of the
State universities are the coordinators of the Program. For
details regarding the Traveling Scholar Program and ap-
proval to participate in it, a student must apply to the dean
of the graduate school on his home campus.







ADMISSIONS


UNDERGRADUATE
INTERINSTITUTIONAL
REGISTRATION PROGRAM
The Undergraduate Interinstitutional Registration Pro-
gram enables students at State University System institutions
to take advantage of special resources and programs avail-
able on another campus in the System but not available at
their home institution, e.g., special course offerings, research
opportunities, unique laboratories, overseas study programs,
and library collections. Course work taken under the Under-
graduate Interinstitutional Registration Program will be ac-
cepted for credit at the student's home institution. A student
must be recommended to participate in the Program by his
own academic dean, who will initiate a visiting arrangement
with the appropriate dean at the host institution.


PERSONAL HEALTH
HISTORY REQUIREMENT
A personal healthhistory completed by you and reported
on forms supplied by the University Physician are required
prior to initial enrollment at the University of Florida. If your
application for admission is approved, the health history
form will be forwarded to you for you to complete and re-
turn to the University Physician. Your form should be re-
ceived by the University Physician at least two weeks prior to
your planned date of entrance.


ADMISSION AS A FRESHMAN
(APPLICANTS WHO HAVE NEVER ATTENDED COLLEGE)
When to'Apply: No application will be considered for the
Freshman Class more than one year in advance of the term
for which entrance is sought. The best time to apply is the
early part of the Senior year in Secondary School. Priority in
admission to the Fall class will be given to qualified appli-
cants whose applications and supporting records are re-
ceived in the Admissions Office prior to March 1st. Applica-
tions for the Fall class received after March 1st will be con-
sidered on a "space available" basis only. The deadlines for
receipt of applications for other terms are listed in the Uni-
versity Calendar.
Admission of students is on a selective basis. The avail-
ability of community junior colleges and other state univer-
sities in Florida has caused the Board of Regents to assign to
the University of Florida a role in the total state system of
higher education which demands that the entering
Freshman Class be limited in number. Such limitation does
not prevent students from subsequently applying for admis-
sion to upper division and professional schools of the Uni-
versity since they may attend junior colleges or other univer-
sities and if qualified, then transfer to the University's upper
division colleges in accordance with rules printed elsewhere
in this Catalog.
The requirements for admission set forth below are desig-
nated to give priority to those applicants whose potential on
the basis of their record indicates the greatest likelihood of
success and the obtaining of maximum benefits from the
Lower Division program at the University of Florida.
A. Requirements for admission Florida students
For consideration a student must meet the following mini-
mums:
1. Graduation from an accredited secondary school.
2. Twelve academic units in college preparatory courses.
The following distribution of the required twelve aca-
demic units is recommended.
English (2 of which include substantial writing
requirements.) .............................. .................... 3
Math (At the Algebra I and above levels) .................... 2
Natural Science (1 of which includes substan-
tial laboratory require ents) ...................................... 2


Electives ....................... ......................................... 5
(From the areas of English, Mathematics,
Foreign Languages, Natural Sciences,
Social Sciences.)
3. An overall "C" average as computed by the University
of Florida in academic courses.
4. A total score of at least 840 on the Scholastic Aptitude
Test (SAT) or a composite score of 17 or above on the
American College Testing Program (ACT).
5. A record of good conduct. Major or continuing dif-
ficulty with school or other officials may make an appli-
cant ineligible regardless of academic qualifications.
Any Florida student who meets the above minimum ad-
mission requirements and is interested in attending the Uni-
versity of Florida is urged to submit an application. The Uni-
versity will do everything possible to accept all qualified ap-
plicants who apply before the application deadline date. If
the number of qualified applicants exceeds the number that
the University is permitted to enroll, admission will be on a
selective basis. An applicant's total high school record in-
cluding grades, test scores, educational objective and pat-
tern of courses completed, rank in class, school recommen-
dation and personal record will be considered in the selec-
tion process.
Composite pictures of the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT)
results of recent Freshmen classes at the University of Florida
indicate that more than 50 percent score 500 or above on the
Verbal section and more than 75 percent score 500 or above
on the Math section. In addition, more than 50 percent of
each entering class has earned a "B" or better average in
high school academic subjects. While there is no minimum
grade average or test score which in itself assures a student
of admission or success in college, prospective applicants are
urged to discuss the meaning and implication of these data
with their school counselors when considering the Univer-
sity of Florida.
B. Requirements for admission- Non-Florida Students.
Because of a limited entering Freshman class each Fall,
only a small number of highly qualified students from states
other than Florida may be admitted. The minimum require-
ments for consideration are essentially the same as for Flor-
ida students except that priority in consideration for admis-
sion will be given to those applicants who present scores of
at least 600 on each section of the Scholastic Aptitude Test of
the College Entrance Examination Board and, an academic
average of "B" or better.
C. Admission by examination alone
All freshman applicants must submit a transcript of their
high school record and scores on either the SCholastic Ap-
titude Test (SAT) or the American College Test (ACT) as in-
dicated in the application instructions. Applicants who be-
lieve their preparation for college is not accurately reflected
by their high school grades and/or aptitude test scores are
encouraged to also submit their scores on the College Board
Achievement Tests.
A student can qualify for admission as an entering
freshman on the basis of College Board Achievement Tests
.alone. Scores must be submitted on at least three tests in-
cluding: (1) English Composition, (2) Mathematics, and (3)
one test from among the sciences or social studies. A Florida
student must present a total score on the three tests of at
least 1500 with a minimum score of at least 500 on each test.
A non-Florida student must present a total score of at least
1600 with a minimum score of at least 500 on each test. This
option is not available to students who take college courses
in the above subject areas prior to completing the College
Board Achievement Tests.
A student can also qualify for admission as an entering
freshman on the basis of College Board Advanced Place-
ment Tests alone. Scores must be submitted on at least three
tests including: (1) English-Language Composition, (2) Cal-
culus AB or Calculus BC, and (3) one test from among the
sciences or social sciences. A Florida student must present a
total score on the three tests of at least 9 with a minimum

11





General

ADMISSIONS


score of at least 3 on each test. A non-Florida student must
present a total score of at least 10 on the three tests with a
minimum score of at least 3 on each test. Advanced place-
ment credit will be awarded for each test in which the stu-
dent achieves a score of 3 or higher. This option is not avail-
able to students who take college courses in the above sub-
ject areas prior to completing the College Board Advanced
Placement Tests.



OTHER INFORMATION OF
INTEREST TO PROSPECTIVE
FRESHMAN APPLICANTS
Early Admission
Applications for Early Admission (i.e. admission following
completion of the Junior year in high school) from superior
students are encouraged and will be considered on an indi-
vidual basis by the University's Admissions Committee. Ap-
plications should be submitted in accordance with dead-
ines published in the University Catalog.
In addition to the application, the following items are
needed for processing Early Admission applicants.
1. A written statement by the student setting forth reasons
for requesting early admission.
2. An official transcript of the applicant's secondary school
record covering the 9th, 10th and 11th years. Generally, an
overall academic average of B+ is expected.
3. Results of either the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or
the American College Testing Program (ACT). Generally, a
score of approximately 600 on each section of the SAT or
a composite score of 28 on the ACT is expected.
4. A letter of recommendation from the student's high
school principal or guidance counselor. The letter should
give specific reasons as to why the applicant would profit
more from Early Admission than by completion of the Sen-
ior year in high school.
An applicant for Early Admission may be required to come
to the campus for interviews by members of the Admissions
Committee before a decision is made on the application.
The Admissions Office will advise the applicant if interviews
will be required after all-of the above items have been re-
ceived and evaluated. IMPORTANT: Please note that an ap-
plicant should NOT report for interviews until advised by
the Admissions Office.
The University of Florida provides numerous op-
portunities other than Early Admission by which a student
may accelerate graduation. For additional information,
please refer to the section of this catalog entitled Time
Shortened Degree Opportunities.
Candidates' Reply Date. Applicants accepted for admis-
sion to the Fall Freshman class must indicate their en-
rollment plans within 30 days after acceptance.
Advance Housing Payment. Entering freshmen are re-,
quired to make a housing deposit within 30 days after accep-
tance if they desire to live in University housing. The hous-
ing deposit, less a $10.00 service charge, is refundable until
May 1st for applicants accepted for admission to the Fall
Freshman Class.
Admission with Advanced Standing. The University of
Florida is a participant in the Advanced Placement Program
(APP) and in the College Level Examination Program (CLEP)
of the College Entrance Examination Board. Under. the Ad-
vanced Placement Program a student entering the University
offers a nationally graded examination as evidence of com-
pletion of a college level course taken in high school. De-
pending on the results of the examination, the student may
receive University credit for courses covering similar materi-
al or exemption from such courses without credit. Under the
College Level Examination Program, the University grants
credits for satisfactory scores in each of the five areas of the
CLEP General Examinations. For further information, please
refer to the section of the Catalog entitled Time Shortened
Degree Opportunities.


Early Decision for Superior Students. Students with supe-
rior secondary school records (academic average at least 3.5)
and Junior year high school SAT test scores (approximately
600 each on the verbal and mathematics sections) may apply
for early decision. The student must certify that this is his
only application and this statement must be supported by
the signatures of his parents and appropriate school official.
The completed application must be received by November
*1, and, if admitted, the student must make his commitment
to attend the University of Florida, accompanied by his
housing payment, by December 1.


ADMISSION AS A TRANSFER
STUDENT TO UNDERGRADUATE
SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES
(APPLICANTS WHO HAVE ATTENDED ANY COLLEGE OR
UNIVERSITY, REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT OF. TIME
SPENT IN ATTENDANCE OR CREDIT EARNED, ARE CON-
SIDERED AS TRANSFER STUDENTS.)
When to Apply: Applications may be submitted not more
than one year i(i advance and applicants are strongly urged
to apply at least six months prior to the date they plan to
enter. Applicants should refer to the DEADLINES FOR AP-
PLYING section of the University Calendar published in this
catalog as well as consult the portion of this catalog per-
taining to the individual college to which they intend to ap-
ply for specific .information regarding application deadlines.
(NOTE: In a number of undergraduate programs, the se-
quence of professional courses begins ONLY in the Fall Term
of the junior year.) An applicant who waits until the last pos-
sible date to file an application may find that it is impossible
to furnish the necessary supporting records in time to permit
a decision for the term that admission is desired.
In this section are listed the general requirements for ad-
mission of undergraduate transfer students. It should be ob-
served however, that ADMISSION TO THE UNIVERSITY IS A
SELECTIVE PROCESS AND SATISFYING THESE GENERAL RE-
QUIREMENTS DOES NOT GUARANTEE ACCEPTANCE. At-
tention is also directed to the fact that Upper Division col-
leges of the University have established enrollment quotas
because of limitations of space and facilities. Transfer appli-
cants who meet the minimum admission requirements will
be referred to the selection committee of the appropriate
college for consideration of their enrollment within the
college's established quotas.
A transfer applicant should refer to the General Informa-
tion and Colleges sections of this catalog for an explanation
of the academic organization of the University.
If an applicant is accepted for admission, courses which
reasonably parallel the curriculum of the University of Flor-
ida that were completed with grades of "D" or higher at oth-
er accredited institutions are acceptable for transfer credit. It
is the prerogative of the college (within the University) that
administers the work for the degree being sought to de-
termine how transfer credit may be used in satisfying that
degree's specific course requirements. Not more than 64
semester hours (or 96 quarter hours) of credit transferred
from or through a junior college may be applied toward the
total credit hours requirement for a University of Florida de-
gree. Courses completed at a junior college in excess of a to-
tal of 64 semester hours may serve to meet specific course re-
quirements for a University of Florida degree but the credit
hours represented by those courses will not reduce the
number of credit hours to be completed at the University.

A. FLORIDA PUBLIC JUNIOR COLLEGE GRADUATES
This section applies ONLY to students seeking to transfer
directly from a Florida public junior college with the As-
sociate in Arts degree in a university parallel program. All
other junior college applicants and undergraduate transfer
applicants from four-year or upper division colleges and
universities should consult Section B which follows.
The University of Florida subscribes to the Articulation
Agreement between the State Universities and Public Junior







ADMISSIONS


Colleges of Florida. Under this agreement, any graduate of a
State approved Florida public junior college is eligible for
admission to non limited access programs at the University if
the student has completed the university parallel program
and received the Associate in Arts degree, provided the de-
gree has been awarded on the basis of the following:
1. At least 60 semester hours of academic work exclusive of
occupational courses;
2. An approved general education program of at least 36
semester hours;
3. A grade point average of at least 2.0 on a 4.0 system on
all college level academic courses attempted.
By law, all applicants seeking admission to a program in
teacher education must submit scores on the Scholastic Ap-
titude Test (SAT) or the American College Test (ACT). These
scores should be forwarded to the Admissions Office as
soon as possible after an application for admission has been
submitted. Some colleges with enrollment quotas may re-
quire applicants to submit test scores as a part of their selec-
tion process. When test scores are required by an Upper
Division college, the applicant will be advised directly by
that college.
An undergraduate transfer applicant who will enter the
University of Florida with junior class standing (AA degree
from a Florida public community college or 60 semester
hours of acceptable transfer credit) in the 1982-83 Spring
Term or later must have completed the College Level Aca-
demic Skills Project (CLASP) test in order to be admitted in
a degree-seeking status.
Within space and fiscal limitations, applicants who have
satisfied the above minimum requirements will be con-
sidered for admission at the junior level to an Upper
Division college. Such students may be required to take ad-
ditional preprofessional courses not completed at the junior
college. However, such courses will not reduce the number
of credits required in the Upper Division for a degree.

B. TRANSFER APPLICANTS OTHER THAN GRADUATES
FROM A FLORIDA PUBLIC JUNIOR COLLEGE
This section applies to students seeking to transfer from a
Florida public junior college without an Associate in Arts de-
gree in a university parallel program and to all under-
graduate transfer applicants from other colleges or univer-
sities.
I. Requirements for admission to the Lower Division
1. Eligible for admission as a beginning Freshman: An ap-
plicant must have been eligible for admission to the Uni-
versity of Florida as a beginning Freshman in order to be
considered for admission to the Lower Division as a
transfer student. (See section, ADMISSION AS A
FRESHMAN.)
2. Good standing: An applicant must be in good standing
and eligible to return to any institution previously at-
tended. A student who for any reason will not be allowed
to return to an institution previously attended cannot be
considered for admission to the University of Florida.
3. Satisfactory record: An applicant must have an average
of "C" or higher (as computed by the University of Flor-
ida) on all work attempted at each institution previously
attended. No application can be considered until com-
plete official transcripts of all the applicant's under-
graduate work are in the possession of the Admissions Of-
fice. An official transcript must be furnished from each in-
stitution attended regardless of length of attendance or
credit earned. Official supplementary transcripts are re-
quired, as soon as they are available, for any work com-
pleted after making application. Since an average of "C"
or higher is required for graduation from the University of
Florida, one who has failed to maintain this average at an-
other institution is not eligible for admission. Regardless
of the.average earned, courses completed at other institu-
tions must reasonably parallel the curriculum at the Uni-
versity of Florida.
4. Satisfactory test scores: An applicant who will present
less than 60 semester hours (or 90 quarter hours) of accep-
table college courses (including not more than 4 semester


hours in Military Science and/or basic required Physical
Education) as credit for advanced standing must present
satisfactory scores on an acceptable general ability test.
Any of the following tests may satisfy this requirement. If
taken prior to first enrollment in college: the Florida
Twelfth Grade Placement Test, the Scholastic Aptitude
Test (SAT) of the College Entrance Examination Board, or
the American College Testing Program (ACT). Otherwise,
the applicant should furnish scores on the School and Col-
lege Ability Test, College Level (SCAT). The minimum ac-
ceptable score on these tests will vary with the amount
and quality of academic study the applicant will have
completed prior to transfer.
5. Satisfactory conduct record: An applicant must present
a satisfactory conduct record. Regardless of other quali-
fications, an applicant who has experienced serious or
continuing difficulty with school or other authorities be-
cause of improper conduct may find his application disap-
proved.
II. Requirements for admission to an Upper Division
College.
With the exception of items 1 and 4, an applicant for ad-
mission to an Upper Division College must satisfy the re-
quirements listed above for admission to the Lower Division.
By law, all applicants seeking admission to a program in
teacher education must submit scores on the Scholastic Ap-
titude Test (SAT) or the American College Test (ACT). These
scores should be forwarded to the Admissions Office as
soon as possible after an application for admission has been
submitted. Some colleges with enrollment quotas may re-
quire applicants to submit test scores as a part of their selec-
tion process. When test scores are required by an Upper
Division college, the applicant will be advised directly by
that college. In addition, the following requirements must
also be satisfied.
1. Advanced Standing credit. An applicant must present a
minimum of 60 semester hours (or 90 quarter hours) of ac-
ceptable college courses, not more than four semester
hours of which are in Military Science and/or basic re-
quired Physical Education as credit for advanced standing.
2. Specific course requirements. An applicant must pres-
ent the courses listed as required for admission by the Up-
per Division college of his choice, or acceptable sub-
stitutes, as part of the courses offered for advanced stand-
ing credit. (See appropriate college section of this catalog).
Upon recommendation by the Upper Division college, an
applicant lacking some of the specific course require-
ments may be permitted to enroll in that college and com-
plete them if he meets all other requirements for admis-
sion; however, such Lower Division courses will not re-
duce the number of credits required in the Upper Division
for a degree.
3. College Level Academic Skills Project Test. By law, all
applicants admitted in a degree-seeking status to an upper
division college at an institution in the State University
System of Florida must have satisfactorily completed the
College Level Academic Skills Project Test (CLASP).
C. TRANSFER CREDIT POLICY
If an applicant is accepted for undergraduate transfer ad-
mission, courses completed at other regionally accredited
institutions of higher education with grades of "D" or higher
which reasonably parallel the curriculum at the University of
Florida will be accepted for transfer credit. The determina-
tion of how transfer credit may be used to satisfy the specific
course requirements for a degree is the prerogative of the
College within the University that administers the work for
the degree sought.
Substantially equivalent courses applicable to the
student's degree program at the University of Florida com-
pleted at non-regionally accredited institutions of higher ed-
ucation may be accepted for transfer credit on an individual
basis subject to validation by the student's subsequent per-
formance at the University of Florida.
Credit hours for work completed at a community or junior
college after the student has earned a total of 64 semester

hours (or 96 quarter hours) of acceptable transfer credit at all
institutions attended will not be accepted for transfer credit
at the University of Florida. The courses represented by such
credit hours will be recorded on the student's University of
Florida record and may be used to satisfy experience re-
quirements but such courses will not reduce the number of
credit hours to be completed in the upper division at the
University of Florida in order to earn a degree.

year in advance and applicants are urged to apply as early as
possible. Applications. MUST BE SUBMITTED by the dead-
line established for the term. Some departments have found

Application for admission to the Graduate School must be
made to the Admissions Section, Office of the Registrar, on
forms supplied by that office and at the times stipulated in
the University Calendar. Applications which meet minimum


standards for admission are referred to the graduate selec-

tion,and no transcript will be accepted as official unless it is
received directly from the Registrar of the institution in
which the work was done. Official supplementary tran-
scripts are required, as soon as they are available, for any

credited institution will be considered for graduate study in
any unit of the University.
All foreign students whose native tongue is. not English
making application for admission to the Graduate School of
the University of Florida must present their scores on TOEFL
(Testing of English as a Foreign Language). Each applicant is
asked to write TOEFL Educational Testing Service, Princeton,
New jersey, U.S.A., requesting a Bulletin of Information and
registration form. It is important to remember that final con-
sideration can not be granted a foreign student's application
for admission until his scores on this test are received by: Ad-
mission Section, Office of The Registrar, Uniersity of Flor-
ida, Gainesville, Florida, U.S.A.
Undergraduate Record: Unqualified admission to the
Graduate School is dependent upon the presentation of a
baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or univer-
sity with an average of B for the Junior and Senior years. In
some units of the Graduate School and on the more ad-
vanced levels of graduate study, an undergraduate average
considerably above B may be required. In some units admis-
sion may be considered with an undergraduate average
slightly below B. College graduate admission selection com-
mittees take into account not only the general grade aver-
age, but the distribution of the course work and the quality
and extent of preparation for the graduate program which
the student proposes to undertake.
While the general admissions requirements described
above apply to both master's and doctoral candidates, it
should be noted that doctoral candidates must meet certain
additional requirements, which vary according to the pro-
grams established by the departments and colleges.
Furthermore, it is desirable for students planning to enter
certain colleges and departments to have a reading knowl-
edge of one foreign language.
Graduate Record Examination: A satisfactory average score
on the Graduate Record Examination is required for admis-
sion. Each applicant for admission must submit scores on the
aptitude test of the GRE, but either at the request of the de-
partment concerned or on his own volition, the applicant is
encouraged to submit in addition the score on one or more
advanced subject-matter tests of the GRE. The scores on all
tests taken will be weighed in regard to admission.
The GRE is given six times a year in October, December,
January, February, April and June at a great many loca-
tions in the United States, including Gainesville, Florida. To
determine exact dates and the most convenient locations,
students should write to the Educational Testing Service,
Princeton, New Jersey. Applications are required several
weeks prior to the examination, and scores are received
about a month after the examination. Hence, it is necessary
to apply to take the GRE in early September for admission to
the University in January; in early January for admission in
May or June; and in early March for admission in August.
Other GRE examinations are given for which application
must be made in November, December or May, but the GRE
examinations indicated above are the ones best correlated
with the University's admission deadlines.

applying for admission to the Graduate School for study in
the College of Business Administration may substitute satis-
factory scores on the Graduate Management Admission Test
(GMAT) for the Graduate Record Examination. Students ap-
plying for admission to the Master of Business Adminis-
tration (MBA) program must submit satisfactory scores on
the GMAT. Applicants are requested to contact the Educa-







ADMISSIONS


tioral Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey, for additional

ADMISSION TO
THE COLLEGE OF DENTISTRY
When to Apply: The Application Request Card for the
American Association of Dental Schools Application Service
(AADSAS) may be obtained after May 15, from the Office of
Admissions, College of Dentistry. The request card should
be sent directly to the AADSAS, P. O. Box 1003, Iowa City,
Iowa 52240. Upon receiving the application materials from
the AADSAS, the completed forms and supporting docu-
ments must be returned directly to the AADSAS no later
than October 15 of the year prior to anticipated enrollment
in dental school. Failure to meet this deadline will prevent
the Dental Admissions Committee from evaluating your re-
cord.
The data compiled by the AADSAS will be carefully eval-
uated by the Dental Admissions Committee and promising
applicants will be sent Formal Application forms which re-
quest additional information. The submission of a pre-
professional committee evaluation or letters of recommen-
dation from people in academics will not be necessary until
the Formal Application forms are filed. The Formal Applica-
tion forms and supporting materials should be submitted as
early as possible, but no later than November 15 of each ap-
plication year.
The College of Dentistry aspires to attract students of the
highest caliber into its various programs. High standards of
scholastic achievement, moral character, and motivation are
expected of the applicant. The student of dentistry must
possess a high basic aptitude supplemented by an academic
preparation of the highest order because of the vast area of
science which must be mastered by the dentist. The highly
personal relationship between patient and dentist places the
latter in a position of trust, which demands maturity, integ-
rity, intellectual honesty, and a sense of responsibility. A
broad representation of the ethnic mixture of the State is
sought in the student body through an active recruitment
program. The College strictly adheres to the principle of
ethnic, racial, religious and social equality among its student
body and faculty.
Generally, students applying for admission should plan to
complete the requirements for a bachelor's degree. How-
ever, qualified students may be accepted without fulfilling
the degree requirements, provided they show evidence of
sufficient preparation for the study of dentistry. Applicants
with an overall "B" average as a minimum will receive
strongest consideration for admission to the College of Den-
tistry.
Every applicant must take the Dental Admission Test,
preferably in the Spring preceding the submission of his In-
itial Application or, at the latest, the Fall testing period. The
test is given twice a year at many college and university test-
ing centers. Following a review of all application materials
and Dental Admission Test scores by the Dental Admissions
Committee, interviews with members of this Committee will
be arranged for competitive applicants.
(See also more detailed description in the College of Den-
tistry bulletin.)

tant that a candidate make application as early as possible
during the Summer or Fall of the year preceding his in-
tended date of entry.
Personal qualities of high order-character, responsibility
and maturity are the primary requirements for admission.
The student must have demonstrated superior intellectual
achievement. A bachelor's degree is strongly recommended.
The quality of the academic background as well as the per-
formance of the student in relation to the load attempted,
will be weighed. A genuine interest in human welfare is im-
portant. Efficient methods of study and effective powers of
reasoning are essential.
The College admits both men and women. A limited
number of out-of-state students, in proportion to the
number in the University as a whole, may be admitted. Stu-
dents who have failed academically or are ineligible to con-
tinue in another medical school will not be admitted.
Applications from students who are presently enrolled in
another medical school will be considered provided (1) the
student is eligible to continue in his present medical school,
(2) the school he is now attending is a member of the As-
sociation of American Medical Colleges, and (3) space is
available.
Prospective applicants must take the Medical College Ad-
missions Test, preferably, by the Spring preceding the sub-

General

ADMISSIONS


ADMISSION AS
A SPECIAL STUDENT
When to Apply: Each application for admission as a spe-
cial student must be reviewed by the University Admissions
Committee. Applications cannot be considered if they are
received after the dates specified in the Catalog; and it
would be desirable for a person considering application as a
special student to initiate such an application at least three
months in advance of the term he wishes to enter, in order
to allow time for additional evidence to be presented if it
should be requested by the Admissions Committee.
Special students may be admitted to the various schools
and colleges of the Upper Division only by approval of the
University Admissions Committee. Each case will be con-
sidered on an individual basis. Applications for admission as
a special student must include: (1) records of previous edu-
cational experience (high school or college transcripts); (2) a
statement as to the type of studies to be pursued; (3) a brief
statement of the reason or reasons for selecting a special
program other than a regular one; (4) satisfactory evidence
of ability to pursue these studies for example, a student to
enroll as a special student for some technical courses and
who feels qualified to do so by reason of employment or
other experience; (5) satisfactory scores on such ability or
achievement tests as may be prescribed in individual cases
by the University Admissions Committee.


ADMISSION AS
A TRANSIENT STUDENT
Subject to availability of faculty, space and facilities, a reg-
ular undergraduate student in good standing at another ac-
credited collegiate institution may be permitted to enroll at
the University of Florida as a transient student in order to
complete work to transfer back to the parent institution. No
evaluation will be made of work previously completed and
it is the student's responsibility to secure such approval as
the parent institution may require.
Transient students are registered as NON-DEGREE stu-
dents and no application for admission is required. The ap-
propriate forms for enrolling as a NON-DEGREE student
should be requested from the Office of the Registrar. Since
registration is subject to the availability of space, approval to
enroll as a non-degree student cannot be given prior to the
first day of classes in the term for which the student wishes
to enroll.
Credit earned in a NON-DEGREE status is not auto-
matically applicable to a University of Florida degree should
the student later be admitted in a regular status. Admission
as a NON-DEGREE student in no way implies future admis-
sion as a regular student to the University of Florida.


ADMISSION INFORMATION FOR

ACADEMIC RECORDS
Consideration of an application for admission cannot be
given until ALL required credentials as indicated in the sec-
tion APPLYING FOR ADMISSION are received by the Ad-
missions Office. All documents must be accompanied by
Certified English translations and become the property of the
University. Credentials of applicants who do not enroll will
be destroyed and cannot be returned or forwarded

Admissions Office, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida
32611, U.S.A.
NOTICE OF ADMISSION
If a student's application for admission to the University
of Florida is approved, an official notice of acceptance will
be sent by the University. Admission is for a SPECIFIC term.
If the student is unable to enroll for the term indicated in the
notice of acceptance, the Admissions Office should be in-
formed immediately. If the student wishes to be considered
for entrance to a different term, the Admissions Office must
be advised. Under no circumstances should an applicant
make definite plans to depart for Gainesville until officially
notified by the University that approval has been given to
the application for admission. A student who comes to the
campus without first receiving an official notice of accep-
tance does so entirely at his own risk. The student's presence
on the campus will not influence the decision on an applica-
tion for admission. Because of the limited resources avail-
able in terms of faculty, staff and physical facilities, only
those international students who submit superior academic
records can be approved for admission.

CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS-
FLORIDA OR NON-FLORIDA
(Section 6C-7.05, Florida Administrative Code)
(1) For the purpose of assessing registration and tuition
fees, a student shall be classified as a "Florida" or "non-
Florida" student.
(a) A "Florida student" is a person who has domicile in
and who shall have resided in the state of Florida for at
least twelve (12) consecutive months immediately pre-
ceding the first day of classes of the academic term in
which the student enrolls. In determining residency,
the university may require evidence such as voter regis-
tration, driver's license, automobile registration, loca-
tion of bank account, rent receipts or any other relevant
materials as evidence that the applicant has maintained
continuous residency. Physical presence for the entire
twelve-month period need not be required so long as
the conduct of the student, taken in total, manifests an
intention to make Florida his or her permanent dwell-
ing place. If such a student is a minor, it shall mean that
the parent or parents, or legal guardian of the student
shall have domicile in and have resided in the state of
Florida for the period stated above. "Florida student"
classification shall also be construed to include stu-
dents who hold an Immigration and Naturalization
Form 1-151, Resident Alien Registration Receipt Card,
or Cuban Nationals or Vietnamese Refugees who are
considered as Resident Aliens, provided such students
meet the residency requirement stated above and com-
ply with subsection (2) below. The burden of establish-
ing facts which justify classification of a student as a
resident and domiciliary entitled to "Florida student"
registration rates is on the applicant for such classifica-
tion.
(b) In applying this policy:
1. "Student" shall mean a person admitted to the in-
stitution or a person allowed to register at the institu-
tion on a space available basis.
2. "Minor" shall mean a person who has not attained
the age of 18 years, and whose disabilities of minority
have not been removed by reason of marriage or by a.
court of competent jurisdiction.
3. "Domicile" for fee paying purposes shall denote a
person's true, fixed, and permanent home and place
of, habitation. It is the place where the applicant lives
and remains and to which he expects to return when
he leaves, without intent to establish domicile,
elsewhere.
4. "Parent" shall mean a minor's father or mother, or
if one parent has custody of a minor applicant, it is
the parent having court assigned financial responsi-
bility for the education of the student; or if there is a
court appointed guardian or legal custodian of the
minor applicant, it shall mean the guardian or legal
custodian.
5. The term "dependent student," as used in this rule


is the same as a dependent as defined in sections
151(e)(1)(2)(3) and (4) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1954. A copy of these provisions in the Internal
Revenue Code of 1954 is incorporated in this rule by
reference.
6. A "non-Florida" student is a person not meeting
the requirements of subsection (a) above.
(2) In all applications for admission or registration at the
institution on a space available basis, a Florida applicant,
or if a minor, the parent or legal guardian of the minor ap-
plicant, shall make and file with such application a written
statement, under oath, that the applicant is a bonafide
citizen, resident, and domiciliary of the state of Florida,
entitled as such to classification as a "Florida student" un-
der the terms and conditions prescribed for citizens, resi-
dents, and domiciliaries of the state of Florida. All claims
to "Florida student" classification must be supported by
evidence as stated in 6C-7.05(1) if requested by the regis-
tering authority.
(3) A "non-Florida student" or, if a minor, his parent or
guardian, after having been a resident and domiciliary of
Florida for twelve (12) consecutive months, may apply for
and be granted reclassification prior to the first day of
classes of any subsequent term, provided, however, that
those students who are non-resident aliens or who are in
the United States on a non-immigration visa will not be
entitled to reclassification. An application for reclass-
ification.as a "Florida student" shall comply with pro-
visions, of subsection (2) above. An applicant who has
been classified as a "non-Florida" student at time of ori-
ginal enrollment shall furnish evidence as stated in
6C-7.05(1) to the satisfaction of the registering authority
that the applicant has maintained continuous residency in
the state for the twelve months required to establish resi-
dence for tuition purposes. In the absence of such evi-
dence, the applicant shall not be reclassified as a "Florida
student." In addition, the application for reclassification
must be accompanied by a certified copy of a declaration
of intent to establish legal domicile in the state, which in-
tent must have been filed with the Clerk of the Circuit
Court, as provided by Section 222.17, Florida Statutes. If
the request for reclassification and the necessary docu-
mentation is not received by the registrar prior to the last
day of registration for the term in which the student in-
tends to be reclassified, the student will not be reclassified
for that term.
(4) Unless evidence to the contrary appears, it shall be
presumed by the registering authority of the institution at
which a student is registering that:
(a) The spouse of any person who is classified or is
eligible for classification as a "Florida student" is like-
wise entitled to classification as a "Florida student."
This provision will not apply in the case of students
who are non-resident aliens or who are in the United
States on a non-immigration visa.
(b) If an applicant's eligibility for classification as a
"Florida student" is based on the residency of the
spouse, the spouse shall make and file with the applica-
tion written statement under oath, that said person is
the spouse of the applicant and a bonafide citizen, resi-
dent and domiciliary of the state of Florida, entitled as
such to classification as a "Florida student."
(c) No person over the age of 18 years shall be deemed
to have gained residence while attending any educa-
tional institution in this state as a full-time student, as
such status is defined by the Board of Regents, in the
absence of a clear demonstration that he has estab-
lished domicile and residency in the state, as provided
under subsection (3) above.
(d) Any "Florida student" who remains in the state, af-
ter his parent previously domiciled in Florida or sta-
tioned in Florida on military orders removes from this
state, shall be entitled to remain classified as a "Florida
student" so long as his or her attendance at a school or
schools in Florida shall be deemed "continuous." How-
ever, such student claiming continuous attendance

study habits in a new and sometimes perplexing environ-
ment. Special services are provided related to foreign educa-
tioral and cultural backgrounds; language, legal, em-
ployment, academic, and personal matters; U.S. immigration
and other government agency responsibilities as aliens; and
currency exchange. The focus is on helping international
students achieve their educational goals, while providing an
insight into the culture of the United States through a pro-
gram of social activities, orientation seminars, and com-
munity visits.
INSTITUTE OF BLACK CULTURE
The Institute of Black Culture is an educational tool for
students at the University of Florida. It is a facility for en-
lightment and black awareness where Afro-Americans can
focus on their history, literature, art, culture, and lifestyle. It
is also a place where all ethnic groups can develop a better
understanding of blacks and an appreciation of black con-
tributions to American society. The center sponsors pro-
grams, exhibits and related activities.

ing aids, and assistance in general University activities. Stu-
dents with disabilities are encouraged to contact this office
to obtain any needed assistance.


STUDENT HOUSING
The University of Florida offers its resident students a
unique and exciting residence hall program. It is our belief
that living on campus is a profitable educational experience
that the students will long remember. Our desire is to pro-
vide accommodations and programs to meet the needs of
our students while promoting the overall educational goals
and objectives of the University.
The University of Florida has a large resident population
Composed of both in-state and out-of-state students, as well
as students from 90 different foreign countries. Since our
students come from differing environmental backgrounds
and social experiences, they bring with them varying needs
and expectations. Because of this diversity in our student
body, we feel it would be a disservice to our students to take
a unilateral approach in developing our residence hall pro-
gram. Therefore, we have developed a program based upon
alternatives and choices. Our students may select from vari-
ous housing accommodations and environments that best fit
their needs.


GENERAL INFORMATION
All freshmen who apply for admission to the University
will receive a Housing Application Card with their formal
letter of admission from the Admissions Office.
The University of Florida has no residency requirement for
freshmen attending the University for the first time during
the Fall Semester. Freshmen entering the University during

21




General -

STUDENT AFFAIRS


the Summer Term(s) must live on campus to be eligible for
Fall Semester on-campus housing. Entering students are free
to choose either on-campus or off-campus accommoda-
tions. Students who voluntarily contract for on-campus
housing normally must do so for the entire academic year
(August to May) if enrolled. However, residents must be
full-time students to be eligible to reside in the residence
halls. Full-time enrollment for residence is defined as being
enrolled in 12 credit hours if an undergraduate and 9 credit
hours if a graduate student.
All students other than beginning freshmen must initiate
their own arrangements for housing either by (1) applying to
the Division of Housing, Assignments Office for assignment
to University Housing facilities, or (2) obtaining accom-
modations in private housing (see Off Campus Housing)..
All correspondence concerning application for University
housing should be addressed to the Division of Housing, As-
signments Office, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida,
32611. An application for residence hall space for students
other than freshmen may be filed at any time after an appli-
cation for admission to the University has been approved.
Prospective students are urged to apply as early as possible
because of the demand for housing.
For all students other than beginning freshmen, applica-
tion requests are considered first-come, first-served, on a
space-available basis.
Roommate requests shall be considered if the individuals
wishing to room together submit their Housing Agreements
on the same date, clearly indicate their desire to room to-
gether on their respective Agreements, elect the same visita-
tion choice and assignment option, and are within similar
academic classification.
Disabled students are also offered housing on a first-
come, first-served, space-available basis. Accessible housing
is available for handicapped students once they are offered
housing. Students with special needs should indicate these
needs on their Housing Agreement.
ROOM STYLES
There are several room styles to fit the individual student's
preference. The most prevalent is the double room, accom-
modating two students, with central floor bath facilities.
Doubles are found in every area except Beaty Towers and
range from air-conditioned units with phones in Hume Hall,
to rooms with bay windows in Murphree.
All rooms have individual closets, storage space, dresser,
,bed and mattress, study desk and chairs.
Room rates vary, depending on such features as air condi-
tioning, phone service, and floor space. See rental rate chart
for specific charges.
Beaty Towers provide apartment living on campus. These
two-bedroom apartments are fully contained with their own
bathroom, study, kitchen, and two separate bedrooms for
four students. Each apartment is fully carpeted, air condi-
tioned, and has a telephone.
The Murphree Residential Area offers suites for two stu-
dents. These non-air-conditioned facilities offer the student
more individual living space. Each suite is made up of two
rooms one designed as a study and living area, the other
as a bedroom with a lavatory.
THE RESIDENCE HALL STAFF
AND STUDENT GOVERNMENT
A full complement of professional and para-professional
staff members is available to assist students in becoming a
part of campus life. The staff in residence act as referral
agents in acquainting students with the many resources of
the University. Our staff are also involved in a range of'ac-
tivities, from initiating social and intramural athletic pro-
grams to supplementing the various academic and develop-
mental programs. In addition, staff members supervise and
enforce policies designed to create an atmosphere con-
ducive to learning and growth.
Each floor or section is supervised by an undergraduate
Resident Assistant, the RA. Working in close conjunction
with the RA is a graduate student, the Hall Director, who co-


ordinates the area activities and insures, through the RAs, an
environment for learning. The Assistant Director of Housing
for Residence Life is a professional staff member and is re-
sponsible for the overall administrative and educational
functions within the residence area. The entire housing staff
is committed to servicing our students in the most effective
and responsible way possible. The student is why the staff
exists, and his/her development is our primary goal.

INTER RESIDENCE HALL ASSOCIATION
All students in the residence halls are encouraged to par-
ticipate in organizational activities which can play a signifi-
cant part in their educational, cultural, social, and recrea-
tional life. The Inter Residence Hall Association was estab-
lished to help stimulate this participation. IRHA represents
the collective interests of all resident students. The organiza-
tion also serves as a channel of communication between res-
idence area government councils, the University com-
munity, and other outside interests. This self-government
program at both the hall and area levels offers residents the
opportunity to help establish guidelines for group living and
to assist in the planning of social and educational activities
for their fellow students.

GENERAL SERVICES
TELEPHONES. Telephone services offered to students are
presently under review. Students will be notified of changes
in telephone service if they occur. Currently, a telephone is
conveniently located in each student room except in Buck-
man Co-op. Each room telephone provides 24-hour service
on campus and within the Gainesville area; cost of local serv-
ice is included in the rental rate. Charges for long-distance
calls are billed monthly to each room by Southern Bell, and
each student is responsible for paying directly to the tele-
phone company.
FOOD SERVICE. Gator Dining Service, a private food serv-
ice operation, maintains cafeterias and snackbars on campus
and offers meal plans. Hume Hall and Broward Hall have
cafeterias, Snackbars are located in Tolbert Hall and Graham
Hall. Cafeterias are also located in Johnson Hall, the Reitz
Student Union, and the Medical Center. It is the policy of
the University to provide well-prepared food at the lowest
possible price.
REFRIGERATOR RENTAL. The cost of refrigerators is not
included in the room rent (except Beaty Towers, apartments,
and selected suites for four). In most cases; it is best to make
arrangements for a refrigerator after arriving on campus
when roommates can share the cost and decide on available
space in the room. Upon check-in, the resident may opt to
rent a refrigerator for the room by contracting for a refrig-
erator at the Area Office. Presently, EMD Services, a privately
owned rental company, and authorized University service
(Phone: 373-3985) provides refrigerators to students. If stu-
dents bring their own refrigerators, they must make arrange-
ments for installation and removal. No refund will be
granted if a student brings a refrigerator to a hall already
furnishing such units.
CUSTODIAL SERVICE. Each residence hall (except co-ops)
has a staff of experienced custodians assigned to do general
cleaning of public areas, bathrooms, lounges, and hallways.
Other specific tasks are done in order to maintain good
housekeeping throughout the halls. Student room cleaning
is the responsibility of each resident.
INTERNAL SECURITY. Residence hall security is
monitored by the residence hall staff; external building se-
curity generally is the responsibility of the University Police
Department. Trained Housing Division Security Assistants
patrol the areas immediately adjacent to the residence halls.
VENDING. Various vending machines are conveniently lo-
cated in all residence halls for the comfort and pleasure of
students desiring such services.
LAUNDRY FACILITIES. Coin-operated washers and dryers
are provided in each residence area. Most students provide
their own irons; however, some area governments provide
irons on a check-out basis.






STUDENT AFFAIRS


SPECIAL HOUSING AREAS: HONORS, FAMILY
Recognizing the diversity of students' needs, the Division
of Housing offers several different living environments.
New students are assigned primarily to double or per-
manent triple rooms when first applying to the University,
but once on campus they may qualify for specialized areas.
Qualifying freshmen may be invited to live in the "Honors
Hall"(East Hall) with other selected freshmen and partici-
pate in an accelerated academic program. For more informa-
tion as to your eligibility to qualify for the "honors" program
and the Honors Hall, contact the Admissions Advisor for Su-
perior Students, (telephone (904) 392-1365).
Family Housing apartments are reserved for married stu-
dents and their children (if any), and student parents with-
out spouses who have dependent minor children under
their legal care or who qualify under the provisions of Feder-
al Regulations, Title IX.
A student must have applied for admission to the Univer-
sity of Florida prior to applying for on-campus family stu-
dent housing. He/she must be registered as a full-time stu-
dent as defined by his/her college or school during the
semester in which housing is desired in order to qualify for
a family housing apartment assignment. In order to maintain
occupancy, the student must make normal progress toward
a degree as determined by his/her college or school. As ap-
plicable, proof of marriage will be required, or the necessary
documents to support that a minor children) is in the legal
care of a student parent without a spouse.
Family housing facilities consist of one- and two-bedroom
apartments, a few townhouses and efficiencies. These units
come furnished, unfurnished, air conditioned and non-air
conditioned. Most all Family Housing villages are located on
campus or within a mile and a half of the University's main
campus.
Family income limits are set by the Department of Hous-
ing and Urban Development For Maguire Village only. There
are no income limits for Corry, Diamond, Tanglewood, or
University Village South.
For additional information, write or call Division of Hous-
ing, Family Housing Office, University of Florida,
Gainesville, 32611, telephone (904) 392-2176.

OFF CAMPUS HOUSING
The Housing Office functions as a listing and referral
agency for privately owned rental housing of all types listed
with the University for referral to students, faculty, and staff.
This office maintains extensive listings of apartments,
houses, and rooming units offered for rent to students, fac-
ulty, and staff. Each spring, the office compiles a com-
prehensive list of major apartment and rooming unit devel-
opments. This list is available to anyone who requests it in
person or by mail from the Off Campus Housing Office.
It is recommended that the student make a personal in-
spection of the rental facility and have a conference with the
owner (or agent) prior to making a deposit or signing a lease
agreement. Persons seeking off-campus housing should plan
to arrive in Gainesville well in advance of the semester in
which housing is needed. For example, Fall Semester ar-
rangements are possible as early as April, Spring Semester af-
ter mid-November, etc. For best results, visit during the
week-not week-ends-after preliminary information on
available rentals has been obtained.
Landlord/tenant problems are handled by Student
Government's attorney, Room 302, Reitz Union, telephone
(904) 392-1623..
Inquiries about off-campus housing should be directed to
the Division of Housing, Off Campus Housing Office, Uni-
versity of Florida, Gainesville, 32611, telephone (904)
392-2181.

available. Qualifications for membership are scholastic abili-
ty, and reference of good character. Inquiries should be ad-
dressed to: Collegiate Living Organization (Co-ed), 117 NW
15th St., and Georgia Seagle Hall (men), 1002 W. University
Avenue.


STUDENT FINANCIAL AFFAIRS
The Office for Student Financial Affairs (SFA) in Anderson
Hall provides financial assistance and counseling to Univer-
sity of Florida students who need help paying college ex-
penses, administering more than 100 federal, state and in-
stitutional student aid programs. Awards to eligible students
may include scholarships, grants, loans or part-time em-
ployment, singly or as a package. The University adheres to
the national philosophy that students and their parents have
the primary responsibility to pay for college expenses. When
family resources are insufficient to meet the full cost of edu-
cation, financial aid is available to help meet the deficit.
The amount and types of aid for which a student may be
eligible depend on the individual's need in relation tb col-
lege costs. For financial aid purposes, need is defined as the
difference between college costs and the amount students
and their families can reasonably afford to contribute. A na-
tional needs analysis service, the College Scholarship Service
(CSS) in Princeton, New Jersey, evaluates financial need for
University of Florida students from information they and
their families supply on the CSS Financial Aid Form.
When To Apply
January 1 through March 1 of each year is the primary ap-
plication period for aid awarded by the University for the
next academic year. Students who apply by March 1 have
priority for available financial aid and applications sub-
mitted after March 1 are considered only if funds remain,
Several major aid programs, including the federal Pell Grant
program, Guaranteed Student Loans, OPS and off-campus
jobs, are open for application throughout the year. But to be
considered for all possible aid programs, students should BE
SURE TO MEET THE MARCH 1 DEADLINE.
SFA cannot make official financial aid awards to students
until they have been admitted to the University. However,
students should not wait for official acceptance to the Uni-
versity to apply for financial aid; they should apply as soon
after January 1 as possible.
How To Apply
To apply for aid, students must complete two forms (three
for transfer students). First, they must fill out the University
of Florida Statement of Educational Purpose and return it to
SFA before March 1 of each year. Second, they must com-
plete and mail the College Scholarship Service Financial Aid
Form (FAF) to the Princeton, New Jersey, address listed on
the form. Transfer students who have received aid at another
postsecondary institution must submit a third form, the Fi-
nancial Aid Transcript (FAT). Students who fill out and sub-
mit these forms by the March 1 deadline are considered au-
tomatically for all programs administered by SFA, except in-
sured loan programs, which have separate applications.
Students can request financial aid applications by writing
to Student Financial Affairs, 111 Anderson Hall, UF,

STUDENT AFFAIRS


Student Employment Office
The SFA Student Employment Office is a clearinghouse for
part-time employment, maintaining a current list of jobs
available through the federal College Work Study Program
and the state-funded Other Personnel Services program, and
through off-campus jobs. Student Employment updates job
lists weekly and posts them on bulletin boards at these loca-
tions: Anderson Hall, Weil Hall, the Reitz Union, McCarty
Hall, Norman Hall and Tigert Hall.
Types of Aid
SCHOLARSHIPS are awards based on academic 'per-
formance and financial need; they do not have to be repaid.
SFA awards approximately 400 scholarships annually to the
most outstanding undergraduates showing financial need as
determined by the College Scholarship Service. Some schol-
arships are'available to incoming freshmen through the Of-
fice of Admissions, and individual colleges also offer schol-
arships to undergraduates. Many private donors offer schol-
arships to students, selecting the recipient directly. Students
should consult the resources of their home community, civic
clubs, service organizations and private corporations.
GRANTS are gift aid available to undergraduates. No re-
payment is necessary. The three largest grant programs avail-
able at UF are the federally funded Pell Grant and Sup-
plemental Educational Opportunity Grant programs and
state-funded Florida Student Assistant Grants.
LOANS for UF students are long-term or short-term. Long-
term loans are low-interest (5 percent to 14 percent) with
payment deferred until the borrower graduates, withdraws
or drops to below half-time (six hours) status. Short-term
loans are emergency loans for temporary needs and must be
repaid by the first day of the last month of the semester in
which the loan is borrowed. Through this program students
can borrow up to $200 or the amount of in-state fees.
PART-TIME EMPLOYMENT through the University is of-
fered'to approximately 4,500 UF students each year. In addi-
tion, many students work off-campus in the Gainesville
community. Normally students work a total of 15-20 hours, 3
or 4 days a week, and wages range from minimum wage up,
depending on skill and experience.
Mini-Courses: How to Apply for Aid
Each year, during the January 1 through March 1 applica-
tion period, SFA conducts mini-courses on how to apply for
aid. These workshops, held on the University campus several
times a week, are conducted by a financial aid professional
and are open to students and their families.
Another resource for financial aid information is the
NEXUS telephone tape series. Tapes 402-A through 402-L
contain current information on financial aid programs at the
University of Florida. The telephone number for the NEXUS
system is 392-1683.
Student Financial Affairs is open daily from 9:00-12:00 and
from 12:30-4:00, Monday through Friday. For financial aid in-
formation, applications and counseling, students can go to
the Anderson Hall offices or call 392-1275.

shops, and a career library. The Center also provides referral

Student Life


STUDENT ACTIVITIES AND
ORGANIZATIONS
Student Government: Student Government at the Univer-
sity of Florida is a cooperative organization for advancing
student interests and is based on mutual confidence among
and between the student body, the faculty, and the adminis-
tration. Considerable authority has been granted the student
body for the regulation and conduct of student affairs. The
criterion in granting authority to the Student Government
has been the disposition of UF students to accept responsi-
bility commensurate with the.authority granted them. Stu-
dent Government has several resources at its disposal to
fulfill its mission, including the allocation of approximately
three million dollars per year in student activity and service
fees, substantial authority in the regulation pf co-curricular
activities, and administration of the Student Court. The Uni-
versity of Florida faculty and staff feel that training in accep-
tance of responsibility for the conduct of student affairs at
the University is a valuable part of the educational growth
and development of the individual student.
Student Government is a body politic, occupying its
franchise under grant from the Board of Regents and subject
to its continued approval. Student Government is patterned
on the state and national form of government but adapted
to the local needs of the Student Body. Powers are dis-
tributed into the three branches: (1) legislative, which is em-
bodied in the Student Senate; (2) judicial, which is em-
bodied in the Student Honor Court and the Traffic Court; (3)
executive, embodied in the President and the Treasurer of
the Student Body. Members of all three branches are elected
directly by the Student Body, of which all UF students are
members. In addition to elected offices, many appointed
positions have been established, in Student Government, in-
cluding Cabinet and sub-Cabinet, Student Court, and the
Traffic Court posts.
Student Government, recognizing its limitations as a true
"government," attempts to exercise influence on govern-
ments at all levels through conferences, lobbying, research,
and the advancement of proposals for change.
Students may apply for various positions within the stu-
dent government structure by contacting the Student Gov-
ernment offices on the third floor of the J. Wayne Reitz Un-
ion.
Student Senate: The Student Senate is composed of repre-
sentatives elected from the colleges and living areas on the
campus and, in general, acts as the Legislative Branch of Stu-
dent Government.
Religious Activities: The University of Florida welcomes
the contributions of religious traditions to the campus com-
munity. The churches, centers, and organizations associated
with the University offer a rich variety of programs and min-
istries. There are also interdenominational and non-
denominational activities fostered by the Department of Re-
ligion and the Campus Ministries Cooperative.
Social Fraternities: Thirty national social fraternities have
established chapters at the University in addition to one na-
tional colony. The general work of the fraternities is super-
vised by the Interfraternity Council, composed of the Presi-
dent of each fraternity. The national fraternities at the Uni-
versity of Florida are Alpha Epsilon Pi, Alpha Gamma Rho,
Alpha Phi Alpha, Alpha Tau Omega, Beta Theta Pi, Chi Phi,
Delta Chi, Delta Sigma Phi, Delta Tau Delta, Delta Upsilon,
Kappa Alpha, Kappa Alpha Psi, Kappa Sigma, Lambda Chi
Alpha, Omega Psi Phi, Phi Beta Sigma, Phi Gamma Delta, Phi
Delta Theta, Phi Kappa Psi, Phi Kappa Tau, Pi Kappa Alpha,
Pi Kappa Phi, Pi Lambda Phi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Sigma
Chi, Sigma Nu, Sigma Phi Epsilon, Tau Epsilon Phi, Theta Chi,
and Zeta Beta Tau. The national colony is Delta Sigma Phi.
Nineteen women's sororities have established chapters at
the University. Sixteen have built chapter houses and four
live in other housing arrangements. These living quarters
serve as the center of the activities of the individual


sororities; Primary jurisdiction in sorority matters is vested in
the Panhellenic Council. The chapters at the University of
Florida are Alpha Chi Omega, Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Xi Delta,
Alpha Epsilon Phi, Alpha Kappa Alpha, Alpha Omicron Pi,
Chi Omega, Delta Delta Delta, Delta Gamma, Delta Phi
Epsilon, Delta Sigma Theta, Kappa Alpha Theta, Kappa Del-
ta, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Phi Mu, Sigma Delta Tau, Sigma
Kappa, Zeta Phi Beta, and Zeta Tau Alpha.

ACADEMIC HONESTY
The University of Florida expects students to be honest in
all of their University class work. Therefore, students are re-
quired to commit themselves to academic honesty by sign-
ing the following statement as part of the admissions pro-
cess, and again each semester on their course request regis-
tration form.
"I understand that the University of Florida expects its stu-
dents to be honest in all of their academic work. I agree to
adhere to this commitment to academic honesty, and under-
stand that my failure to comply with this commitment may
result in disciplinary action, up to and including expulsion
from the University."
This statement serves to remind students of the obligation
they assume as students at the University of Florida. Matters
of violations, of academic honesty are adjudicated by the
Student Honor Court.


STUDENT CONDUCT CODE
I. Introduction: Students enjoy the rights and privileges
that accrue to membership in a university community and
are subject to the responsibilities which accompany that
membership. In order to have a system of effective campus
governance, it is incumbent upon all members of the cam-
pus community to notify appropriate officials of any vio-
lations of regulations and to assist in theirenforcement. All
conduct regulations of the University are printed and made,
available to all students and are applicable upon publication


in the Independent Florida Alligator, the University Catalog,
the UF Student Guide, or other reasonable means of
notification.
II. Authority: The President is charged with the responsi-
bility for establishing and enforcing regulations governing
student life. Regulations are designed to enable the Univer-
sity to protect against the conduct of those who, by their ac-
tions, impair or infringe on the rights of others or interfere
with the orderly operations of the University. Discipline may
be imposed for offenses against the Code occurring at any of
the following locations or activities:
A. University campus;
B. University owned or controlled property;
C. Property or housing units assigned for responsibility to

against him/her with sufficient detail and time to pre-
pare for the hearing;

olation. If a student is suspended under this policy without
a hearing, he/she shall, upon request, be entitled to a pre-
liminary hearing at the earliest practical time. Such hearing
shall be solely to determine if the suspending official acted
within the scope of his/her authority and that there is.proba-
ble cause to believe that the student has violated a Univer-
sity policy. The hearing board shall be appointed by the Pres-
ident and shall report its determinations to the President.
This presidential action shall be interim until the Student
Conduct Committee shall hear the matter and make recom-
mendations to the President.

otherwise interferes with the implementation or en-
forcement of the Student Conduct Code.
14. Failure to appear before the Committee on Stu-
dent Conduct or the Director of Student judicial Af-
fairs and to testify as a witness when reasonably

pulsion or any lesser penalty for academic dishonesty as
defined by the Student Body Constitution. The Student

Student Body Constitution for other offenses against the
student body as provided for in the Student Code of
Conduct. Conflicts in jurisdiction will be resolved by the
Director of Student judicial Affairs.

forth by the University Housing Committee for violation

D. Student Traffic Court may impose authorized penal-
ties for violation of University traffic, parking, and vehi-
cle registration regulations.
E. Other judicial bodies may be established and vested
with jurisdiction by appropriate authority.
VI. Off-Campus Conduct: When a student violates Section
V-A-15 of this Student Conduct Code by an offense com-
mitted off the campus and which is not associated with a
University-connected activity, the disciplinary authority of
the University will not be used merely to duplicate the pen-
alty awarded for such an act under applicable ordinances
and laws. The University will take disciplinary action against
a student for such an off-campus offense only when it is re-
quired by law to do so or when the nature of the offense is
such that in the judgment of the Director of Student judicial
Affairs, the continued presence of the student on campus is
likely to interfere with the educational process and the or-
derly operation of the University; the continued presence of
the student on campus is likely to endanger the health, safe-
ty, or welfare of the University Community or its property; or
the offense committed by the student is of such a serious na-
ture as to adversely affect the student's suitability as a mem-
ber of the university community.
If the Director of Student judicial Affairs determines the
offense affects the University as stated above, then the Com-
mittee on Student Conduct shall hold a prompt hearing to
consider whether the offense is of such nature as set out
above; whether or not the student committed the offense;
and recommend appropriate action. The action of the Com-
mittee on Student Conduct shall be made independent of
any off-campus authority.
VII. Postponement of Hearing Due to Pending or Possible
Criminal or Civil Charges: If the student charged with a vio-
lation of the Student Conduct Code, regardless of which pri-
mary judicial body may hear the matter, wishes to have the
hearing postponed because there is pending or possible civil
or criminal litigation which he/she feels might be prejudiced


by the findings of the hearing, such postponement may be
granted provided the student agrees to accept conduct pro-
bation or suspension, depending upon the gravity of the of-
fense. Such probation or suspension will be determined and
activated by the Director of Student judicial Affairs and will
remain in force until such time as the student requests a
hearing before the appropriate primary judicial body and
the hearing is held. The student shall be informed whether
hshe would be placed on probation or suspended prior to
making a decision to postpone the hearing.
VIII. Student Waiver of Right to Hearing: In the event a
student charged with an offense under paragraph V-A
wishes to waive in writing the right to a hearing by the ap-
propriate official or hearing body and the Director of Stu-
dent Judicial Affairs wishes to accept jurisdiction, the Direc-
tor of Student Judicial Affairs may make a determination of
fact and make a recommendation of appropriate action.
IX. Summary Hearing: When' a student is accused of a vio-
lation of paragraph V-A of this Code, which in the opinion of
the Director of Student Judicial Affairs, if proven, would not

credit for work taken subsequently at a lower level.
14. Pending Charge of Academic Dishonesty or Code of Stu-
dent Conduct Violation: No degree will be conferred upon a
student against whom there is pending an unresolved
charge of either Academic Dishonesty or Code of Student
Conduct violation where the penalty for such violation
would likely be:
a. Suspension
b. Expulsion
c. Failing Grade
d. Any combination of the above until such time as the
charge is resolved and degree requirements are met.
15. College Level Academic Skills Test: Effective with the
1982 Fall term, students seeking admission to the upper
division must take the College Level Academic Skills Test
(see page 33).


MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM LOAD
Some colleges have a maximum load which is stated in the
catalog. In the absence of such a statement, the general Uni-
versity regulation applies. This regulation allows a maximum
load of 15 credits for a student who earned an average below
a "C" the preceding semester of attendance. The minimum
load for all undergraduate students is 12 hours. The mini-
mum load for a six-week summer term is 6, and for the
twelve-week term 12.
Simultaneous enrollment in correspondence courses, ex-
tension work at another college or university is counted in
computing the maximum, but not the minimum load.
At the time of registration, a student, upon the approval of
his or her dean, may register for less than the minimum or
more than the maximum load. After the late registration pe-
riod has closed, no student attending under the above con-
ditions will be permitted to drop below the minimum load
unless the student successfully petitions the college in
which he or she is enrolled. The minimum load for fulltime
benefits from the VA or Social Security is 12- hours per
semester for undergraduate students.


DUAL ENROLLMENT
-1. Definition: Dual Enrollment, as used in this regulation, re-
fers to a student taking on-campus courses simultaneously
at BOTH the University of Florida and another institution.
2. Dual Enrollment will be permitted ONLY under the fol-
lowing conditions:
a. Approval in writing for the dual enrollment must have
been secured by the student from the appropriate official
at EACH institution. A copy of such approval must be
furnished at the time of registration to the registrar at the
University of Florida.
b. A student will not be permitted to register at the Uni-
versity of Florida for a course which is a part of the cur-
riculum at the student's parent institution. This require-
ment also applies if courses are available at the parent in-
stitution which might be evaluated as equivalent or


acceptable substitutes for the University of Florida course.
The converse of these statements also applies to Univer-
sity of Florida students registering for courses at another
institution. I
,c. Priority in assignment to classes at the University of Flor-
ida will be given to regularly enrolled students.
d. A student taking courses at the University of Florida will
be required to register and attend classes under the Uni-
versity of Florida calendar.
e. The, student will pay appropriate fees at the University
of Florida based on the number of credit hours for which
he or she is registered at this institution.

It is the student's responsibility to insure that an official
transcript of work completed under a dual registration is
forwarded to the parent institution. Certification to social se-
curity and veterans administration programs is also the re-
sponsibility of the individual student who must request each
individual institution to furnish records as might be neces-
sary.


NON-DEGREE REGISTRATION
A student not previously registered at the University of
Florida may, with college approval, register for one semester
only as a non-degree student. Members of the faculty and
staff and those with special permission from their college
may be permitted to register as non-degree students for
more than one semester. Registration will be on a space
available basis. Procedures for registering are available from
the Registrar's Office.


GRADES
Results of student's work are recorded in the Registrar's
Office as follows:
1. Undergraduate Students: Passing grades are A, B+, B,
C+, C, D+, D, in order of excellence, and S-Satisfactory.
Failing grades are E Failure, I Incomplete, U Un-
satisfactory, X Absent from examination, EW -
Dropped for nonattendance or unsatisfactory work; and
WF Withdrew failing. The grade of EW is not a valid
grade after 1979-80.
Grades of I and X are considered as failing grades. They
must be changed to passing grades in accordance with the
dates set in the University Calendar, or be converted to
grades of E.
In special situations where it is not possible to assign
regular grades at the end of the term, a deferred grade may
be assigned. The symbol for a deferred grade is a grade of
H. This grade may be assigned only in special cases, such
as modular courses, confined to infirmary, and similar cir-
cumstances. A grade of H will not be computed in a
Student's grade point average.
A,symbol of W will be assigned for any course dropped
through the college after the end of the official drop/add
period and prior to the date for assigning a WF grade. The
W symbol is an official notation of an action taken in a
course, and will appear on the student's transcript.
The degree-granting college may require a minimum
grade of C in a particular course or courses.
2. Graduate students: Passing grades for graduate students
are A, B+, B, C+, C and S. Grades of "C+," and "C" in
courses below 5000-level are acceptable for credit toward
graduate degrees only if the total program meets the B-av-
erage requirement. C+ and C,grades in 5000-level courses
and above count toward p graduate degree only if an
equal number of credit hours in courses numbered 5000 or
above have been earned with grades of B+ and A, respec-
tively.
SATISFACTORY-UNSATISFACTORY GRADE OPTION
It is the University's desire to allow students to receive as
broad an education as possible. Therefore, students are en-






General

STUDENT ACADEMIC REGULATIONS


courage to take courses in disciplines in which they may
not have the proper background. They may take such course
work as electives and receive a grade of S satisfactory or
U unsatisfactory. These grades become a part of a
student's record, but do not count in the grade point aver-
age as computed by the University of Florida. NOTE: Other
agencies or institutions might count the grade of U as a fail-
ing grade in their grade point average computation.
To be eligible to enroll under the S-U option, a student
must 1) be in good standing -- may not be on any type of
probation, or warning, 2) be classified as an undergraduate
student, and 3) have approval from proper university of-
ficials.
Only one course will ordinarily be approved in any one
term. Approvals for exception to this policy must be ob-
tained from the dean of the college in which the student is
registered.
The deadline for electing the S-U option is the last day for
dropping or adding a course as published in the calendar. In
addition, students who elect the S-U option may subse-
quently request that their instructors assign a standard
grade, but the converse is not permitted.


AVERAGES
1. Definitions: The term "average," as used in any univer-
sity regulations concerning probation or suspension,
always refers to the average on work attempted at the Uni-
versity of Florida. Grades received at other institutions are
not averaged with grades received at the University of
Florida for the purpose of meeting any University average
requirement. Most honorary societies take into considera-
tion the quality of the work done at other institutions in
meeting any average requirements they may have.
2. How computed: Averages are determined by computing
the ratio of grade points to semester hours recorded as at-
tempted. Grade points are established by equating each
semester hour as follows: A with 4.0, B+ with 3.5, B with
3.0, C+ with 2.5, C with 2.0, D+'with 1.5, D with 1.0, and
E, WF, EW, I, and X with 0.0. The grade of EW is not a valid
grade after 1979-80. In computing averages, a course re-
peated is counted as many times as grades for it are re-
corded. Hours for grades of S, U, and H are not computed
in the University of Florida grade point average.
3. Grade Point Averages: Students' grade point averages
will be based on their overall work at the University of
Florida. That is, when students are admitted to the Univer-
sity of Florida their grade point averages begin and their
academic averages will be based upon work taken at the
University of Florida. While work transferred from other
institutions toward a degree program at the University of
Florida will count in total hours earned, such hours will
not be a part of the University of Florida grade point aver-
age.


PROBATION, SUSPENSION, AND
EXCLUSION FOR
ACADEMIC REASONS
The University of Florida is responsible for providing the
best possible education in an economical and efficient
manner. In order to discharge this responsibility, the Univer-
sity expects and requires reasonable academic progress from
its students. Continuation of students who have demon-
strated a lack of the necessary ability, preparation, industry,
or maturity to benefit reasonably from a program of univer-
sity study is inconsistent with the University's responsibility
as,a tax supported institution.
The University of Florida Senate has enacted regulations
covering probation, suspension, and exclusion. These regu-
lations are directed toward enforcing the academic stan-
dards of the University. The academic standards of the Uni-
versity require both the maintenance of grade point aver-
ages consistent with a reasonable chance of satisfactory


completion of the University programs and reasonable con-
formance to the catalog description of the program of study
in'which the student is engaged. Any college of the Univer-
sity may specify additional academic standards and students
are responsible for observing the regulations pertaining to
such standards.


PROBATION BECAUSE OF
UNSATISFACTORY
ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT
The purpose of academic probation is to recognize
formally the fact that a student may not be making satisfac-
tory progress.
The conditions of academic probation are intended to: (1)
relate to quality of achievement below standards required
ultimately to graduate; (2) recognize unsatisfactory work at
an early date; (3) be sufficiently significant to make clear to
the student, and the administration, the short-comings of
the student's performance; (4) provide occasion for counsel-
ing; (5) give students whose ultimate success is doubtful
further opportunity to demonstrate adequate performance.
All undergraduate students:
A student with less than a 2.0 grade point average overall
for University of Florida work shall be placed on scholarship
warning if he or she has a grade point deficit which is less
than ten.
A student with less than a 2.0 grade point average overall
for University of Florida work shall be placed on scholarship
probation if he or she has a grade point deficit of ten or
more, but less than twenty.
Any student who is eligible to return to the University af-
ter a suspension because of academic reasons will be placed
on final scholarship probation for his or her next term. t
In addition to University probation, students may be
placed on probation by the colleges in which they are regis-
tered if they do not maintain normal academic progress in
the program of study in which they are engaged.


CONTINUATION OF PROBATION
All Undergraduate Students:
A student's scholarship warning shall be continued as
long as he or she has a grade point deficit of less than ten. A
student's scholarship probation shall be continued as long
as he or she has a grade point deficit of ten but less than
twenty. If the grade point deficit places him or her in anoth-
er probation category, the student shall be subject to the
provisions of that category.


REMOVAL OF PROBATION
All Undergraduate Students:
Scholarship probation or scholarship warning will be re-
moved when a student's grade point deficit has been re-
duced to zero.
Removal of college probation:
A student will be removed from college probation when it
is deemed by his or her college that the student is making
satisfactory academic progress in the program of study in
which he or she is engaged.


SUSPENSION
The purpose of suspension from the University for aca-
demic reasons is to remove from the University community
any student who would not ultimately meet requirements
for graduation if he or she continued at his or her current
level of progress.
The conditions of academic suspensions are intended to
(1) select any student whose performance indicates that he







STUDENT ACADEMIC REGULATIONS


or she will not fulfill the requirements for graduation; (2) en-
courage a student to leave the University as soon as a high
probability of failure is evident.
All undergraduate students:
A student with a grade point deficit of twenty or more in
his or her University of Florida work shall be suspended
from the University for one semester.
A student re-enrolling after a one semester suspension
will be on final scholarship probation. If the grade point def-
icit is twenty or more at the end of the term the student re-
enrolls, he or she will be suspended without the possibility
of re-registering except by committee action.



EARNING CREDIT
WHILE SUSPENDED
, A student under any kind of academic suspension at the
University of Florida may not earn credit toward a degree at
the University of Florida by taking work in residence at an-
other institution or through extension or correspondence
courses.
Howeyer,a student who was suspended for academic rea-
sons and who has not yet earned the Associate of Arts Cer-
tificate who subsequently graduates from an accredited Flor-
ida community college may appeal to the Petitions Commit-
tee for reinstatement. The Petitions Committee may then,
upon the recommendation of the college in which the stu-
dent wishes to enter, admit the student on academicproba-
tion to that college or school. Credits earned by such stu-
dents while under suspension from the University of Florida
may be transferred in accordance with other rules and regu- -
lations of the University of Florida.



COLLEGE LEVEL ACADEMIC SKILLS
TEST
The State of Florida has developed a test of college-level
communication and computation skills. The test is called the
College Level Academic Skills Test (CLAST).
The CLAST is designed to test the communication and
computation skills that are judged by state university and
community college faculty to be generally associated with
successful performance and progression through the bacca-
laureate level. The test is required by Florida statutes and
rules of the State Board of Education.
The CLAST is administered toward the end of the
sophomore year to university students as well as to com-
munity college students who are completing Associate of
Arts degree programs and to community college students
who are completing Associate of Science degree programs
and are seeking admission to upper division programs in
state universities in Florida. Students who do not take the
test will not be awarded the Associate of Arts, nor will they
be admitted to upper division status in state universities in
Florida. The CLAST requirements also apply to students
transferring to state universities in Florida from private col-
leges in Florida and from out-of-state colleges.
Effective August 1, 1984, the State Board of Education will
establish minimum CLAST score standards for the award of
the Associate of Arts and for admission to upper division sta-
tus in state universities in Florida. Prior to August 1, 1984, the
use of CLAST scores is limited to student counseling and to
curriculum improvement.
The Office of Instructional Resources located at 1012 GPA,
phone 392-1715 can tell you how and when to apply to take
the CLAST.
The Academic Advisement Center located at 358 Little
Hall, phone 392-1521 can provide you with a list of CLAST
skills and can tell you where the communication and com-
putation skills are taught in the curriculum.


EXCLUSION
Freshman and Sophomore students:
A student classified UF who has attempted 80 semester
hours (this includes all work accepted by transfer and all
work attempted at the University of Florida) shall be in-
eligible for further registration at the University unless he or
she applies for a change of classification and is formally ad-
mitted to a degree program. In addition, a student who does
not take CLAST by the end of her or his last sophomore term
is not eligible to be admitted to the upper division.
All undergraduate students:
A student may be excluded from a program of study by
the College responsible for the program if the student fails
or refuses to maintain normal academic progress. Such ex-
clusion does not prohibit the student from enrolling in other
programs or colleges if he or she meets the requirements.
Graduate students:
A graduate student may be denied further registration in
the University or in his or her graduate major when the
student's progress toward completion of his or her planned
graduate program becomes unsatisfactory. Unsatisfactory
progress has been defined by the Graduate Council to in-
clude failure to maintain an accumulative grade average of B
in all work attempted in the Graduate School.


DROPPING COURSES
No student will be allowed to drop a course during the
last two weeks of regularly scheduled classes without receiv-
ing failing grades. A proportionate date will be established
for shortened terms. Any student seeking an exception to
this policy must petition the University Petitions Committee.


WITHDRAWALS
All undergraduate students:
It is the responsibility of each student to make every effort
to complete the full semester at the University. If any stu-
dent withdraws after the date published in the calendar, he
or she shall be assigned grades of WF (withdrew failing) in
all courses, and will be subject to the suspension and ex-
clusion regulations.
A student on scholarship probation who withdraws from
the University prior to the final date published in the calen-
dar will be continued on scholarship probation for the next,
semester.
A student on University Senate Committee probation
must meet the terms of probation specified by the Commit-
tee.


ABSENCES OR
UNSATISFACTORY WORK
Students are responsible for satisfying the entire range of
academic objectives as they are defined by the instructor in
any course. For students whose names appear on the initial
class roll, absences count from the first meeting of the class.
Any student who has not attended at least one of the first
two class meetings of a course or laboratory in which he or
she is registered and has not contacted the department
which offers the course to indicate intent to remain in the
course may be dropped by the chairman of the department
Which offers the course if the chairman deems this action
necessary to provide space for other students who wish to
add the course. Students dropped from courses or labora-
tories through this procedure will be notified by 'notice
posted in the department office. Such students may be re-
instated in the course or laboratory on a space available
basis if documented evidence excusing the absences is pres-
ented to the department chairman.
NOTE: Students must not assume that they are auto-
matically dropped if they fail to attend the first few days of

STUDENT ACADEMIC REGULATIONS


class since these actions may not necessarily be taken in all
courses and laboratories.
TWELVE-DAY RULE: No student shall absent himself or
herself from the University for more than 12 scholastic days
per semester in order to participate in athletic or in extracur-
ricular activities. (A scholastic day is any day on which regu-
lar class work is scheduled.)
The 12-day rule applies to individual members of the
group rather than to the group as a whole. Consequently, a
schedule of more than 12 days for any group should be ro-
tated so that no student is absent from the campus for more
than 12 scholastic days.
A student who has been warned for absences or un-
satisfactory work in any class should not incur additional
absences in that course, even though he or she has not been
absent from the University for 12 scholastic days. It is the re-
sponsibility of the student to see that his or her class work
and attendance are satisfactory.
Student Responsibility: Students, themselves, remain fully
responsible for satisfying the entire range of academic objec-
tives as they are defined by the instructor in any course.
Under University policy, students are not authorized to at-
tend class unless they are on the class roll or have been ap-
proved to audit and have paid the audit fees.


POST BACCALAUREATE STUDENTS
-The probation, suspension, and exclusion regulations that
apply to undergraduate students also apply to post-bacca-:
laureate students.


CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS
Students will be classified by the Registrar each semester
as follows:
0. Special transient or other non-degree students who have
been permitted to register at the University of Florida will be
classified as 0.
1. A student with less than 30 hours credit will be classified
as 1.
2. A student who has earned 30 semester hours or more, but
less than 60, will be classified as 2.
3. A student who has earned 60 semester hours or more, but
less than 90, will be classified as 3.
4. A student who has'earned 90 semester hours or more will
be classified as 4.
5. A student who is a candidate for a degree in a program
which normally requires 10 semesters and has earned 120
semester hours or more will be classified as 5.
6. Post-Baccalaureate students: Degree-holding students
who have been admitted to post-baccalaureate status will
be classified as 6.
7. A graduate student who is seeking a Master's degree will
be classified as 7.
8. A graduate student who has earned a Master's degree, or
has earned 36 or more hours while seeking a degree beyond
the Master's degree (but has not been admitted to doctoral
candidacy), will be classified as 8.
9. A graduate student who has been admitted to doctoral
candidacy will be classified as 9.

PETITIONS AND APPEALS
In case the operation of a student academic regulation ap-


pears to result in an undue hardship on an individual stu-
dent, he or she may petition for waiver of the regulation.
Petitions requesting permission to drop/add should be
presented to the school or college in which the student is
enrolled until the date specified in the calendar. After that
date all drop/add petitions must be presented to the com-
mittee on Student Petitions. Exceptions to the minimum-
maximum load regulation are presented to the school or col-
lege for a decision. Petitions approved by the school or col-
lege must be reported to the Registrar's Office before the ac-
tion becomes official.
All other petitions should be presented to the Registrar
who will refer them to the University Senate Committee on
Student Petitions. No petition for readmission may be filed
after regular registration has started for the term.
The student seeking waiver of regulation through petition
must remember that no committee on petitions can direct
an instructor to change a student's grade, nor can the Senate
'Committee require any college or school to grant a degree
by waiving any of these regulations.


ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS
All actions taken under these regulations shall be reflected
by appropriate notations on the student's record.,


MAINTENANCE OF
STUDENT RECORDS
The Registrar's Office maintains students' academic re-
Sords. A progress report is sent to each student at the end of
the term indicating his or her grades, cumulative hours and
grade points, probationary status, if any, and degrees
awarded, if any.


CONFIDENTIALITY OF
STUDENT RECORDS
The University of Florida assures the confidentiality of stu-
dent educational records in accordance with State Univer-
sity System rules, state statutes, and the Family Educational
Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, known as the Buckley
Amendment.
In general, a present or former student has the right to
personally review his or her own educational records for in-
formation and to determine the accuracy of these records.
Parents of dependent students, as defined by the Internal
Revenue Service, have these same rights. A photo I.D. or oth-
er equivalent documentation, or personal recognition by
custodian for record will be required before access is
granted.



AUDITING COURSES
Auditing may be approved on a space-available basis. The
approval of the instructor and Dean is required, in addition
to payment of course fees. Florida residents who are sixty
years of age or older may apply for a waiver of payment of
auditor's course fees. Procedures for auditing ,courses are
available at the Registrar's Office.











Time Shortened

Degree Opportunities
The University of Florida provides numerous op-
portonities by which students may accelerate their academic
careers and reduce the overall length of time spent in com-
pleting degree requirements. These opportunities are ex-
plained below:
1. Early Admission: The Early Admission program allows,
superior students to be admitted to the University follow-
ing completion of the junior year in high school. Applica.,
tions are encouraged and,will be considered on an indi-
vidual basis by the Admissions Committee. For additional
information, refer to the Admissions section of the
catalog.
2. Dual Enrollment: Dual Enrollment refers to a student
taking on-campus courses simultaneously at both the Uni-
versity of Florida and another institution. For example, a
high school student could register at the University as a
non-degree student. The credits earned prior to high
school graduation could then be accepted for advanced
standing placement and degree-credit when the student is
admitted to the University. For more information, high
school students may refer to the description of non-de-
gree registration within the Student Academic Regulations
section.
University of Florida students may also earn additional
credit through the dual enrollment program. For more in-
formation, refer to the discussion of dual enrollment
within the Student Academic Regulations section.
3. Increased Course Load: Capable students who register
for more than the normal 15 hours per semester may com-
plete the traditional four-year span within three years.
4. Year-Round Attendance: Students attending the Uni-
versity every semester, including Summer sessions, may
advance their graduation date by as much as two
semesters.
5. Credit by Examination: A student may participate in a
variety of credit by examination programs in order to earn
credit toward a degree awarded by the University of Flor-
ida. Credit received from one examination program may
not be duplicated by another. The various credit by exami-
nation programs are explained below:
Advanced Placement Program: This credit by examination
opportunity is sponsored by the College Entrance Examina-
tion Board. Under this program, a student entering the Uni-
versity offers a nationally graded examination as evidence of
completion of a college level course taken in high school. If
the results of the examination meet the minimum require-
ments listed below, the student may receive University cred-
it for courses covering similar material.

***Credit allowed for Physics B or Physics C exams only
College Level Examination Program (CLEP): The College
Level Examination Program is another type of credit by ex-
amination opportunity sponsored by the College Entrance
Examination Board. By presenting appropriate scores, stu-
dents may receive as many as 30 semester hours credit
toward completion of general education requirements. Their
scores on the CLEP general examinations must meet the min-
imums established by the State University System. In addi-
tion, students who plan to apply for credit must do so before
enrolling or, at the latest, prior to the end of their first term
aat the University. CLEP testing is periodically available on the
campus and is administered by the Office of Instructional
Resources.
In accordance with the Articulation Agreement (agree-
ment between public community colleges and public state
universities on the acceptance of credit by transfer), the Uni-
versity of Florida awards credit for CLEP examinations based
on the following scaled scores:
Maximum
CLEP Minimum Score Semester
General Required for Hours
Examination Credit Credit
#English Comp. with Essay Scale Score 610 6
Social Sciences Scale Score 488 6
Biology Sub Score 50 3
Physical Sciences Sub Score 49 3
Humanities Scale Score 489 6
Mathematics Scale Score 497 6
#Students should seriously consider their decision about
taking the CLEP general examination in English. Experience
has shown that those who score below the 75th percentile
are often handicapped because they have not had college
courses in composition. However, those students who do
decide to take the CLEP English examination are required to
take the option that includes an essay examination so that
their scores will be at least partially based on a writing sam-
ple.
Additional credit may be awarded for satisfactory scores
on certain CLEP subject area examinations. The maximum
amount of credit that may be earned or transferred under
the CLEP program, both general and subject examinations
combined, is 45 semester hours or 67.5 quarter hours. If Eng-
lish Subject Examinations (Freshman English or English Com-
position) are taken, it is imperative that the essay option be
taken if credit is to be received for English. A minimum score
insures that the essay portion of the exam is eligible for re-
view by UF staff evaluators. This score in itself does not guar-
antee that credit will be received for English. A favorable re-
view must be received on the essay portion of the exam. A
minimum score of 47 is required for College Composition
and a minimum score of 47 is required for freshman English.
The maximum credit allowed for English credit, if the mini-
mum score is achieved and the essay is acceptable, equals 6
semester hours.
Departmental Examinations: Departments may, at their
option, permit a student to receive credit through the
challenge of departmental course examinations. For specific
information, contact the relevant department.





Colleges


The School of

Accounting


GENERAL STATEMENT
The School of Accounting of the University of Florida was
established July 1, 1977. The objective of the School of Ac-
counting is to provide the technical and general education
for graduates to assimilate the proficiency necessary to enter
the accounting profession and progress rapidly through
levels of increasing responsibility. The field of accounting
offers outstanding opportunities in such areas as public ac-
counting, industrial accounting, nonprofit accounting, and
tax accounting.
The accountant deals with complex problems in the busi-
ness world. This requires a thorough knowledge of business
operations and the environment of business as well as ac-
counting knowledge. In addition to the demanding techni-
cals skills, an ability to communicate clearly in both verbal
and written form is essential. Interpersonal skills and pro-
fessional judgement are important elements in the practice
of accounting. Although accounting is unusually demanding
and requires a high achievement motivation in order to suc-
ceed, the rewards are high.


SCHOLARSHIPS AND
ASSISTANTSHIPS
Information about general financial aid can be obtained
from the Director of Student Financial Aid, University of
Florida, Gainesville, Florida 32611. To be considered for
scholarships awarded to fourth and fifth year accounting
students, application forms (available at the School of Ac-
counting offices) should be completed early in the Spring
term.


HONORARY AND PROFESSIONAL
ORGANIZATIONS
Beta Alpha Psi
This honorary accounting fraternity has 115 chapters na-
tionally. Upsilon Chapter was the 18th chapter to be
founded (in 1938) and is recognized as one of the best chap-
ters in the country. An active professional program is con-
ducted each year including guest speakers, panel discus-
sions, field trips, and other activities designed to promote
professional awareness. Beta Alpha Psi cosponsors the Grad-
uate Accounting Conference which annually attracts more
than 100 accounting practitioners. Membership require-
ments include high ethical standards and a minimum grade
point average. Additional information concerning.these re-
quirements may be obtained from the School of Accounting.
Beta Gamma Sigma
Election to this national business honorary society is based
on scholarship and character. For additional information ap-
ply to the Office of the Dean, College of Business Adminis-
tration.
Florida Accounting Association
The FAA is a professional/social organization that is open
to all accounting students. Its aims are to facilitate com-
munication between accounting students and the account-
ing profession, and to encourage greater interaction be-
tween students and faculty.
School of Accounting Student Council
Members of the School of Accounting Student Council are
elected by the students of the School. The Council performs
a leadership role in a variety of School activities (student
newsletter, Business'Day, Teacher of the Year Award, orien-


station sessions) and provides student representation on fac-
ulty committees.


ACCOUNTING RESEARCH CENTER
The Accounting Research Center was organized in 1976 to
sponsor and encourage both frontier-seeking research and
research that has immediate benefit to the profession. The
Center provides an opportunity for graduate students to be-
come involved in specific research projects on a regular
basis. Occasionally research projects provide a similar op-
portunity for undergraduate students. The Center publishes
research results in a working paper series. For information
contact the Director of the Accounting Research Center,
School of Accounting, University of Florida, Gainesville,
Florida 32611.


PROGRAM OF STUDY
The recommended curriculum to prepare for a pro-
fessional career in accounting is the five-year program lead-
ing to the Master of Accounting degree. The five-year pro-
gram allows the student to concentrate in an accounting
specialty in addition to providing knowledge of both the
basic accounting framework and the underlying business
and related disciplines. Details concerning the five year pro-
gram including the specialization areas of financial/audit-
ing, managerial/cost, systems and tax are included in the
Graduate School Catalog which can be obtained by writing
the Director of Admissions, University of Florida,
Gainesville, Florida 32611. Additional information can also
be obtained by contacting the School of Accounting, Uni-
versity of Florida, Gainesville, Florida 32611.
Students who successfully complete the first four years of
the five-year program will receive the Bachelor of Science in
Accounting degree. Graduates will have the requisite ac-
counting, business, and general education to pursue a varie-
ty of career opportunities in accounting and business and to
apply to graduate and professional degree programs in ac-
counting, business or law. Students wishing to specialize in
professional accounting should plan to complete the final
year of the five-year program.
Prospective students are cautioned to become familiar
with the pending change to a five year requirement to sit for
the Certified Public Accountants Examination.

Level Academic Skills Test (see page 33). Information on cur-
rent minimum standards may be obtained from the School
of Accounting office.
Transfer Students:' The applicant should complete, as far
as possible, the courses required for the desired curriculum.
Completion of these courses and receipt of the AA degree
does not guarantee acceptance to the School of Accounting.
The eligibility standards for admission for students classified
UF (see above) apply equally to transfer students.
A. Students attending four year colleges, who wish to
transfer after two years, should follow a program of gener-
al education and preprofessional courses similar to the
Basic Curriculum for the Freshman and Sophomore years
for students desiring to enter the School of Accounting.
Courses should not be taken during the first two years
which are offered only at the upper division level at the
University of Florida.
B. Junior College and Community College students
should:
1. Complete the general education requirements estab-
lished for the junior college.
2. Complete, insofar as possible, all of the pre-
professional courses.
3. Avoid professional coursework that is available at the
University of Florida only as 3rd and 4th year courses.
TRANSFER STUDENTS ARE ADVISED TO AVOID SUCH
COURSES AS BUSINESS LAW, PRINCIPLES OF MAR-
KETING, PRINCIPLES OF FINANCE, PRINCIPLES OF
MANAGEMENT, PRINCIPLES OF INSURANCE, PRIN-
CIPLES OF REAL ESTATE, PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT,
AND COMPUTER MANAGEMENT COURSES. A max-
imum of four semester credits may be allowed for
courses taken during the first two years which are avail-
able only as third and fourth year professional courses
in the College of Business Administration at the Uni-
versity of Florida. Any credit granted for such work will
be in the form of undistributed elective credit without
reference to specific courses taken. IN NO CASE MAY
SUCH COURSES BE IN ACCOUNTING. In the case
where a student wishes to waive an upper division core
course and substitute a community college course,
waivers may be granted on an individual basis but the
student will be required to take another course in the
area being waived. The course will be specified by the
Department Chairman of the area.


GENERAL REGULATIONS
STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY: The student must assume full
responsibility for registering for the proper courses and for
fulfilling all requirements for the degree. The student is also
responsible for completing all courses for which he or she is
registered.
Seniors must file formal application for a degree in the Of-
fice of the Registrar early in the semester in which they ex-
pect to receive the degree. The official calendar shows the
latest date on which this can be done.
Seniors should make an appointment for a graduation
check with the School of Accounting at the beginning of
their senior year.
NORMAL LOADS: The normal course load in the School
of Accounting is 15 credit hours per semester. A student may
be permitted to register for additional hours if in the opinion!
of the academic adviser, his or her academic record justifies
it. Students who wish to take a lower course load should be
aware that certain university privileges and benefits require
a minimum registration. It is the student's responsibility to
verify the minimum registration necessary for these benefits.
RESIDENCE: The last 30 semester hours to be applied
toward the degree must be completed in residence in the
School of Accounting. A student may not take more than six
semester credit hours by extension or correspondence
among the 60 semester credits of upper-division work re-
quired for the baccalaureate degree and such work must
have prior approval from the Associate Director of the
School. REQUIRED ACCOUNTING COURSES TAKEN BY EX-


TENSION, BY CORRESPONDENCE, OR AT ANOTHER UNI-
VERSITY MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED AND APPLIED
TOWARD REQUIREMENTS FOR THE B.S. DEGREE.
SATISFACTORY-UNSATISFACTORY GRADE OPTION: An
undergraduate student in the School of Accounting may
take on the S-U basis only those courses which will be
counted as free electives in fulfilling degree requirements.
PROBATION AND SUSPENSION: Students who do not
make satisfactory academic progress will be excluded from
further registration. More than one grade below C in upper
division accounting course work is considered unsatisfactory
progress.
DROP POLICY: Courses may be dropped during the
drop/add period without penalty. After the drop/add pe-
riod, a course may be dropped up to the date established as
the School deadline. All such drops are subject to the follow-
ing restrictions:
(1) No more than two drops after the University drop/add
period will be permitted in a student's upper-division aca-
demic career, for any reason.
(2) After the deadline, students may petition the
University's Committee on Student Petitions to drop a
course.
(3) Students dropping their full courseload must contact
the Office of the Registrar as this constitutes withdrawal
from the University.
(4) Students dropping an Accounting course for which
there was a waiting list at the end of the drop/add period
will have the lowest priority for enrolling in that course
during the next academic term.

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS: To receive the degree
Bachelor of Science in Accounting a student must satisfac-
torily complete the following:
1. 64 semester credit hours of lower division requirements.
2. An approved program in accounting.
3. Upper division core courses.
4. Elective requirements.
A minimum of 124 semester credit hours is required for
graduation including 60 semester hours in upper division
courses. The waiving of any required course does not reduce
the hours required for graduation. A student must maintain
an overall average of 2.0 and a 2.0 average on all courses
which count toward his or her upper-division degree re-
quirements. A 2.0 average must also be maintained for all
upper-division accounting courses. Courses that have been
repeated are included in these averages, but do not carry de-
gree credit.
DEAN'S LIST AND GRADUATION
WITH HONORS OR HIGH HONORS:
A student who carries 14 hours per semester with a grade
point average of 3.5 will be placed on the Dean's list for that
semester.
To graduate With Honors, a student must make at least a
3.2 average on all course work accepted as Upper Division
credit and all course work (except as noted below) at-
tempted while registered in the Upper Division. To graduate
With High Honors, a student must make at least a 3.6 aver-
age on all work accepted as Upper Division credit and all
course work (except as noted below) attempted while regis-
tered in the Upper Division. In calculating requirements for
graduating With Honors or With High, Honors, the following
policies are followed: the student must have completed at
the University of Florida at least 40 semester hours for Upper
Division credit toward a degree in Accounting; transfer cred-
its and S-U grade credits will be excluded; and credits for
Lower Division courses taken while registered in the Upper
Division will be excluded.

COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE


College of Agriculture
The aim of the College of Agriculture is to provide stu-
dents with the best education possible for service in agricul-
tural business, technology, and science.
The departments in the College are: Agricultural and Ex-
tension Education, Agricultural Engineering, Agronomy,
Animal Science, Dairy Science, Entomology and Nematolo-
gy, Food and Resource Economics, Food Science and Human
Nutrition, Fruit Crops, Microbiology and Cell Science, Or-
namental Horticulture, Plant Pathology, Poultry Science, Soil
Science, Vegetable Crops, and Veterinary Science. Degree
programs are available through the College of Agriculture in
Botany and Statistics departments administered in the Col-
lege of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The School of Forest Re-
sources and Conservation is a specialized faculty within the
College of Agriculture.


REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSIONS
The University of Florida and the College of Agriculture
encourage applications from qualified students from all cul-
tural, racial, religious, and ethnic groups. Listed below are
the specific requirements for admission to this college.
Any student with a UF classification who has finalized his
decision to study Agriculture may apply for admission to the
College of Agriculture after completing one semester in the
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
To be eligible for admission students must have a mini-
mum of a C average on all work completed, have demon-
strated by selection of preprofessional courses their intent to
pursue a program in agriculture, and have taken the College
Level Academic Skills Test (see page 33).
Transfer Students: To be eligible for admission to the Col-
lege of Agriculture, a transfer student must satisfy the mini-
mum requirements for admission to an Upper Division Col-
lege that are set forth in the ADMISSIONS Section of this
catalog. Additionally, the applicant must satisfy the follow-
ing specific requirements for consideration by the College of
Agriculture: (1) Complete the courses required for the de-
sired curriculum as indicated in the program for the
Freshman and Sophomore years at the University of Florida
and, (2) pass all required preprofessional courses with a min-
imum grade of C. The following conditions will serve as a
guide in expediting transfer to the College of Agriculture in
compliance with the above requirements. In the event en-
rollment quotas become necessary because of limited space
or teaching resources, selection of those admitted will be on
the basis of past academic performance.
A. Students attending four-year colleges, who wish to
transfer after two years, should follow a program of gener-
al education and preprofessional courses similar to the
Basic Curriculum for the Freshman and Sophomore years
for students planning to enter the College of Agriculture
as outlined in the Lower Division section of this catalog.
B. Junior College students should:
1. Complete the two-year college parallel program at
the junior college.
2. Satisfy the general education requirements estab-
lished for the junior college.
3. Complete a program of chemistry through qualitative
analysis and mathematics through college algebra and
trigonometry.

4. Complete basic courses in biology or botany and
zoology.
5. Complete a course in general economics.
6. Complete a coury in general physics.
7. Choose elective courses in fulfilling the required total
hours in the college-parallel program from the areas of


speech, journalism, English, and the basic sciences.
Speech and journalism are considered preprofessional
requirements for students majoring in Agricultural and
Extension Education.
8. Avoid specialized professional courses. Professional
courses can be taken to much better advantage after the
student has acquired the appropriate background in
general education and basic science courses.
Special post-baccalaureate student (6AG): A student who
has received a baccalaureate degree but who is not seeking
admission to Graduate School may be admitted under cer-
tain circumstances as a special student. Examples of these
circumstances are:
a) to receive a second baccalaureate degree
b) satisfy requirements for a second major
c) take basic requirements for admission to Graduate School
and
d) to complete courses for information only.
Admission requirements are the same as for transfer stu-
dents. In addition, post-baccalaureate students must comply
.with College and University rules and regulations and meet
all deadlines as printed in the catalog for undergraduate stu-
dents.,


GENERAL REGULATIONS
STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY: The student must assume full
responsibility for registering for the proper courses and for
fulfilling all requirements for the degree. The student should
also visit with the college counselor for advisement and sig-
nature for course approval (Form 1). Seniors must file a
formal application for a degree in the Office of the Registrar
early in the semester in which they expect to receive the de-
gree. The official calendar shows the. latest date on which
this can be done.
NORMAL LOADS: The suggested average course load in
the College of Agriculture is 15 credit hours. A student may
be permitted to register for additional hours if, in the opin-
ion of the academic adviser and the Dean, the student's aca-
demic record justifies this. Students may register for less
than 12 hours, but should be aware that certain university
privileges and benefits require the minimum of 12 hours. It
is the student's responsibility to verify the minimum course
load for these benefits.
RESIDENCE: The last 30 semester hours to be applied
toward a degree must be completed in residence in the Col-
lege of Agriculture. In special cases this requirement may be
waived by the Dean's office. Students may complete 12
semester credit hours 'by extension or correspondence
among the 30 semester credits of residence work required
for the baccalaureate degree; and such work must have prior
approval for each individual student by the major depart-
ment and the College Dean. Credit for work by correspon-
dence will not be accepted by the College unless a student
has a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 or higher in all
work attempted in residence.
SATISFACTORY-UNSATISFACTORY GRADE OPTION: An
undergraduate student in the College of Agriculture may
take on the S-U basis only those courses which will be
counted as free electives in fulfilling the requirements for
the degree.
'PROBATION AND SUSPENSION: Students who do not
make satisfactory academic progress and drop 20 honor
points below a 2.0 average will be suspended for one term
and then may return for a term but must lower their deficit
below 20 points or face final suspension.
DROP POLICY: Courses may be dropped during the
drop/add period without penalty. After the drop/add pe-
riod, a course may be dropped based on the date established
by the College deadline. All drops are subject to the follow-
ing restrictions:
(1) One free drop after the University drop/add period
will be permitted for a student classified as 1AG or 2AG.
Students classified as 3AG, 4AG, 6AG and OAG are allowed
one free drop. These drops will be processed according to






Colleges

COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE


his/her classification. Records of free drops will be main-
tained in the Dean's office; therefore all drops must be
processed through that office.
(2) After the College deadline, students may petition the
University Committee on Student Petitions to drop a
course provided they can document sufficient reasons to
drop, usually hardship or medical.
(3) Students dropping their full courseload must contact
the Office of the Registrar as this constitutes withdrawal
from the University.


AGRICULTURE
Students planning to enter the College of Agriculture
should take, while in lower division, the following program
of study. The sequence in which courses are to be taken will
depend upon the department in which a student takes his

tal of four in any combination of experiences. A formal writ-
ten report must be submitted before a grade (S-U) will be is-
sued.
Departments offering this option have listed the course
number 4941 in their catalog listing courses. Guidelines are
available from the College and individual departments, es-
tablishing minimum criteria for credit eligibility and per-
formance.
GRADUATE TRAINING IN AGRICULTURE
The College of Agriculture offers four advanced degrees:
Master of Agriculture, Master of Science, Master of Agricul-
tural Management and Resource Development, and Doctor
of Philosophy.
Students contemplating graduate study should consult
with their advisers as early as possible to insure proper pro-
gram planning.


SPECIAL PROGRAMS
SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND BUSINESS
Students in agriculture may specialize in one of three
broad areas of knowledge-Agricultural Science, Agricultur-
al Technology, and Agricultural Business, all within the
framework of 128 credits for the degree Bachelor of Science
in Agriculture.
For a specialization in Agricultural Science at least 12 cred-
its of the 128 total are required in one or more of the areas
of the Physical (CHM, GPY, PHY) and Biological Sciences
(BSC, BOT, ENY, PLP, AGR) and Mathematics (MAC), in ad-
dition to those required in the Lower Division.

courses in applied agriculture is planned by the separate de-
partments of the College of Agriculture in areas of the
student's special interest.
For Agricultural Business Specialization at least 13 credits
of the 128 total required must be completed from the areas
of Food and Resource Economics (AEB) and Business Admin-
istration (ACC, ECO, FIN, MAN, MAR), in addition to those
required in Lower Division plus a departmental major.
The academic adviser of the department in which the stu-
dent majors will assist the student in arranging his course of
study, and make necessary recommendations to the Dean.
The student's courses for each semester are subject to the
approval of the Dean and the Department Chairman.
TROPICAL AGRICULTURE
A program for a specialization (with certificate) in Tropical
Agriculture for Undergraduate and Graduate students is
available through the College of Agriculture. The program
provides course selection to broaden the normal degree re-
quirements for those interested in specializing in Tropical
Agriculture. Students enrolled in any one of the existing ma-
jor programs in the College of Agriculture may pursue this
program. The program is also available to non-agriculture
students with the approval of their college.
The Certificate in Tropical Agriculture (CTA) requires a
minimum of 27 hours of appropriately selected courses.
Some, and possibly all of these hours will be in addition to
the requirements for the current degree sought by the stu-
dent. Up to seven hours of research credit, or its equivalent,
may be applied towards CTA requirements when this re-
search and experience has a clear relationship to agriculture
in developing countries. All candidates must show a level of
competence in an appropriate foreign language, though no
language hours will be counted in the CTA.


The 27 hours of requirements are divided into Social Stud-
ies and Agricultural Sciences. Nine hours are needed in So-
cial Studies, five of which must be area specific courses. The
Agricultural Sciences require 18 hours, made up with 13
hours from natural sciences and five from other agricultural
sciences.
Students will work with their advisor and an in-
terdisciplinary faculty committee of three members to select
appropriate courses to fulfill the objectives of the program.
Students interested in this program should contact the Dean
for Resident-Instruction, College of Agriculture.
PEST MANAGEMENT AND PLANT PROTECTION
Students in the Pest Management and Plant Protection
Specialization will receive instruction in the principles of En-
tomology, Nematology, Plant Pathology, and Weed Science.
An understanding of the component parts of the crop-plant
ecosystem as related to management of all groups of pests
through the application of biological, chemical, and inte-
grated systems compatible with a quality environment will
be provided.
Students who select the Pest Management and Plant Pro-
tection Specialization will major in one of the following pro-
grams in the College of Agriculture: Agronomy, Entomology
and Nematology, Fruit Crops, Ornamental Horticulture,
Plant Pathology, Plant Sciences, or Vegetable Crops. Stu-
dents who complete the requirements for the Bachelor of
Science degree with this specialization should find many
employment opportunities in agri-business enterprises or
government agencies concerned with plant pest manage-
ment, crop production, and environmental protection.
Moreover, the successful completion of this undergraduate
program will place the student in an excellent competitive
position as a candidate for graduate studies in any one of the
departments cooperating in the undergraduate major pro-
gram at the University of Florida or any other university.
SAn interested student should contact an academic adviser
in his/her department and must indicate (register) with the
chairman of the interdisciplinary committee on Systems of
Pest Management and Plant Protection. The following re-
quired courses should be completed in addition to the major
program requirements. The requirements of this special-
ization can usually be met through the course requirements
of the major program and a wise choice of electives within
the 128 credits required for the Bachelor of Science in Agri-
culture.

**Six semester credits will be accepted if taken as a require-
ment for an Associate of Arts degree.
Because of the rigid course requirements, most students re-
quire somewhat more than two years to complete this cur-
riculum. Also, since admission to Veterinary School is com-
petitive, students usually need to make considerably more
than the minimum grade point average of 2.75.
Pre-veterinary students should consult the Dean of the Col-
lege of Agriculture before registering for the pre-veterinary
curriculum.
Students who will have completed the pre-veterinary re-
quirements in June can be considered for admission in the
Fall of the same year. The Office of Admissions at the Col-
lege of Veterinary Medicine should be contacted early in the
Fall term of the year preceding anticipated admission.


AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN ENGINEERING (Agricultural
Engineering)
The Agricultural Engineering curriculum is offered cooper-


atively by the College of Agriculture and the College of Engi-
neering. Students in this major receive basic training in engi-
neering and agriculture so that they are prepared to solve
the specialized and unique engineering problems of agricul-
tural production and processing systems and the manage-
ment and conservation of agricultural land and water re-
sources. Since engineering problems in agriculture relate to
biological production and processing of biological products,
training in agricultural and biological courses is obtained.
Students desiring careers in Agricultural Engineering will reg-
ister in the College of Engineering. See College of Engineer-
ing for curriculum.


AGRICULTURAL AND EXTENSION
EDUCATION
The Agricultural and Extension Education curriculum is
designed to prepare students for careers in agricultural edu-
cation and the cooperative extension service. Students ma-
joring in this department have a common core curriculum
which combines courses in technical agriculture, pro-
fessional education, and/or extension methodology. The de-
partment chairperson or one of the departmental advisers
will advise students majoring in this department in the selec-
tion of electives and requirements to meet the students' ca-
reer goals.
The agricultural education (teaching) program provides
the.student with the basic courses for teacher certification in
Florida. In addition to these courses, a graduate must still ap-
ply to the State Department of Education for certification.
Each applicant who applies for a full-time Florida teaching
certificate shall be required to present a passing score on
each subtest of the Florida Teacher Certification Examina-
tion as part of the requirements to establish eligibility for
certification.
Students wishing to enroll in AEE 4942 "Agricultural and
Extension Education Practicum" (teaching internship) must
meet the following criteria:
1. Advanced senior standing.
.2. Completion of EDF 4210 or equivalent, speech and 16
hours of professional education in agricultural education.
3. A "C" average (2.0) or better.

a. AEE,3313
b. AEE 4424
c. AEE 3200
(b and c may be modified with approval of departmen-
tal chairperson)
Assignment to an internship center is an involved process
and is not taken lightly, Every consideration is given to stu-
dent requests. However, applicants are specifically NOT
guaranteed assignment to their home county, to the im-
mediate and general vicinity of the campus or to a given
center on request. Assignments will be made only to those
centers indicated at time of application. Submission of an
application by a candidate constitutes an agreement to ac-
cept assignment in the center where it is determined that the
objectives of the internship program can best be achieved.
Failure to accept an assignment negotiated by Department
personnel relieves the Department of any further responsi-
bility to provide internship experiences and courses for the
candidate.







COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE


The student completing this program will be required to
satisfy the College of Agriculture core curriculum require-
ments.
All students will take a basic skills assessment examination
while enrolled in AEE 3323. This examination includes sec-

Entomology and nematology are biological sciences deal-
ing with two principal groups of invertebrate animals. The
curriculum is designed to give basic training in entomology
and nematology and specialized programs in various areas
of these two sciences.
Within the pest management program, specialized em-
phasis may be given to areas like crop protection, or animal
protection, or urban entomology and pest control. In the lat-
ter, students are trained in insect, plant disease, and weed
control with special reference to problems in and around
residential and other buildings. Emphasis is also given to
business management so that students are prepared for ad-
ministrative duties as well. Students will be prepared to take
the Florida Board of Health certification examination. Specif-
ic requirements for these programs can be obtained by con-
tacting the Department of Entomology and Nematology.

FOOD SCIENCE AND
HUMAN NUTRITION
The Food Science ard Human Nutrition Department of-
fers two curricula, Basic Food Science and Nutrition and
Dietetics. Students in these curricula take a common core of
courses, required courses for their area of concentration, and
electives. Students should consult the departmental advisers
for guidance and approval of electives.
The Basic Food Science curriculum is designed to utilize
the principles of chemistry, biochemistry, microbiology, en-
gineering, other basic sciences, and management in applica-
tions related to the manufacturing, processing, preserving,
distribution and packaging of food and food products for
immediate or future utilization. General areas of study in-
clude: chemical, microbiological, and nutritional properties
of raw and processed foods;,role of processing and engineer-
ing in modifying food properties; food deterioration and
spoilage; role of additives and other ingredients; food safety;
food fermentation and new food product innovations. An
opportunity is offered for students to intensify in areas of
specialization such as general food processing, citrus pro-
cessing, seafood processing, food chemistry, food engineer-
ing, food microbiology, management, food marketing, nutri-



tion, public health and consumer protection. Cooperative
programs are available with the appropriate commodity de-
partments for students desiring to specialize in dairy, meat,
poultry or fruit and vegetable processing. An excellent foun-
dation for graduate study and research in Food Science or re-
lated fields is also provided.
The Nutrition and Dietetics curriculum is designed to give
students a foundation in nutrition and, if desired, for a gen-
eral dietetics internship program upon graduation. The
Nutrition and Dietetics curriculum provides an excellent un-
dergraduate education for students planning to enter a grad-
uate program in human or animal nutrition. Students prepar-
ing for the professions of medicine, dentistry, or veterinary
medicine normally complete the minimum program and ad-
ditional courses chosen with the help of their advisers.

BUSINESS CURRICULUM
The Business specialization affords interested students an
opportunity to pursue in-depth studies into the business
aspects of fruit production and marketing. This special-


ization consists of the core and departmental requirements
plus 4 curriculum business electives selected from the list of
courses suggested under the Production Management cur-
riculum. The requirement of 2 Agricultural electives is
waived for the 2 extra Business courses.
The curricula for the various specializations leave some
room for other electives for students without deficiencies.
Many fine elective courses are available in Fruit Crops as
well as in other departments. Faculty advisers will be able to
assist students with selection of the best electives to suit ca-
reer interests.


MECHANIZED AGRICULTURE
The Mechanized Agriculture curriculum is-designed to
provide expertise in the application of principles and man-
agement of physical systems for improving production igri-
culture and the handling, processing, and storage of agricul-
tural products. Emphasis is also placed on efficient resource
utilization and environmental quality protection in agricul-
ture practices. The technology of mechanized agriculture is
complemented with emphasis on agricultural sciences and
business management.
Students graduating with a degree in Mechanized Agricul-
ture are prepared for careers in one of four general areas (1)
operations manager in production agriculture; (2) sales and
service representative for agri-business firms; (3)-agricultural
extension; and (4) specialists with governmental agencies,
agricultural organizations, insurance companies, banks, etc.
The curriculum is structured to encourage concentration-in
one of the career areas. Concentration is achieved through
selection of electives in consultation with the faculty aca-
demic adviser.

courages and assists participation with professional groups
and societies.


REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
The University of Florida and the College of Architecture


encourage applications from qualified students of all cul-
tural, racial, religious, and ethnic groups. Listed herein are
the specific requirements for admission to this College. It
should be understood that only minimum requirements are
given and that admission to the College is a selective pro-
cess. Having satisfied minimum requirements does not auto-'
matically guarantee admission. Limitations in faculty, staff,
and facilities make it necessary that the College establish a
selective process for the admission of students. Priority in
admission shall be given to those applicants who, in the
judgment of the admissions committee, have the greatest
apparent potential for successful completion of the pro-
gram.
To be eligible for consideration for admission to the Col-
lege, the student must have reached junior status, earned a
minimum "C" average in all courses attempted regardless of
the type of coursework completed, and taken the College
Level Academic Skills Test (see page 33). If preprofessional
courses are a part of the total credits, a minimum "C" aver-
age is required in these courses also. Students admitted to
the University at less than junior status are in the College of
Liberal Arts and Sciences, Lower Division, not the College of
Architecture, and admission in this manner does not in itself
guarantee space in the preprofessional architecture courses
nor eventual admission to the College. Students admitted as
juniors to Colleges other than the College of Architecture
have no priority for preprofessional or professional courses
and may be considered for enrollment on a space available
basis, after priority College of Architecture students have
been served.
Admission of junior status students to the College in any
of the disciplines of study falls into two categories: 1) those
having completed all Lower Division requirements and pre-
pared to study at the third year professional cou'rsework
levels and 2) those needing to complete freshman/sopho-
more preprofessional courses. Generally transfer students
from universities or community colleges which do not offer
approved preprofessional programs find themselves in the
latter category. These students may expect to require up to
four semesters at the University of Florida to complete these
courses.
An admissions review process is employed for all appli-
cants at this point. Criteria used in review may include any or'
all of the following:
Quality of work completed
Achievement in preprofessional courses or courses related
to disciplines of study
Pattern of courses completed
Personal interview
Portfolio review
Work experience
Recommendations by teachers and/or employers
1. Curriculum in Architecture: Through an Admissions
Committee the Department of Architecture selects from
eligible applicants approximately 100 students annually
to enter third year professional studies. All students
who satisfactorily complete the two year pre-
professional programs at Miami-Dade, Broward and St.
Petersburg (Clearwater) community colleges are eligible
for.consideration for third year admissions. Applicants
for transfer from one of the approved preprofessional
programs or from the Lower Division of the UF College
of Liberal Arts and Sciences must be filed by the dead-
line listed in the front of the catalog (approximately
February 1). Transfer students with provisional admis-
sion status, (3AR, 4AR, 5AR, or 6AR) must notify the De-
partment office of their wish to be considered for third
year admissions by the same date.
2. Curriculum in Interior Design: Transfer students must
consult with the program adviser. Students needing to
complete Lower Division preprofessional requirements
are urged to apply for the summer term for the se-
quence of drawing, building arts and architectural his-
tory. The remaining preprofessional courses may be
completed during the next academic year. Students ac-
cepted for the sequence shall be admitted as pro-







COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE


visional, and shall be reviewed during the spring of the
next year for approval to enter for the professional
courses in the junior year. Notification of the decision of
the admissions committee shall be made prior to the
close of the spring semester for the junior class which
begins the following fall.
3. Curriculum in Landscape Architecture: Transfer stu-
dents contemplating the professional degree program
must contact the Department Adviser to determine ad-
mission timing and eligibility. Students completing the
pre-design programs at Miami-Dade, Broward, and St.
Petersburg (Clearwater) Community Colleges must
complete LAA 2710 and LAA 2711 during the summer
term proceeding admission to professional studies;
these students must also have the equivalent botany
and physical science courses. Transfer students from
community colleges not offering an equivalent pre-de-
sign program are urged to begin their preprofessional
course work in the summer term in order to complete
required classes in three semesters. Calculus, botany,
and physical science requirements, in addition to gener-
al education requirements, can normally be fulfilled at
the Community College. Students with Associate of Sci-
ence degrees must complete all required general educa-
tion and preprofessional course work prior to admission
to professional studies.
4. Curriculum in Building Construction: see The School
of Building Construction.




APPLICATION DEADLINES
The programs in Architecture, Interior Design and Land-
scape Architecture will admit students for third year pro-
fessional coursework in the Fall semester only. Students
needing to complete some or all of the Lower Division re-
quirements shall be reviewed for the Fall, Spring, or Summer
semesters. Applications for Fall, including all required
credentials, must be received by the Registrar's Office (for
transfer students) or the Dean's Office for UF students, as
follows: Architecture February 1; Interior Design and Land-
scape Architecture May 12. The application deadline for
these Departments for Spring and Summer is as stated in the
front of the catalog. Applicants unable to meet these dead-
lines may apply on a space available basis.
The School of Building Construction will admit students
for third year professional course work in the Fall and Spring
semester only. Deadlines for completion of all application
procedures, including School requirements and receipt of
official credentials is March 1 for Fall and October 3 for
Spring admission. Applicants unable to meet these dead-
lines may apply on a space available basis. -
Building Construction applicants needing to complete
some or all of the Lower Division requirements may be ad-
mitted'to the College of Architecture on a provisional basis
not to exceed two semesters. Those in this category must
meet the requirements of the Dean's Office and have the
recommendation of the Director of the School. Deadlines
for students in this category are as stated in the front of this
catalog under "All Other Programs."




ADVISEMENT
Students planning to major in any program of study in the
College of Architecture should see the Director of Student
Services or the proper Upper Division departmental chair-
man, program director or adviser as soon as possible.
Each Upper Division student in the College is assigned a
faculty member as an adviser who remains as that student's
adviser. This adviser can assist with academic processes and
personal problems as well. The students are encouraged to
take full advantage of this assistance.


GENERAL REGULATIONS
MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM LOADS
Fifteen to eighteen semester hours in any regular semester
shall be considered a normal load. A student may be per-
mitted to register for more than eighteen hours when, in the
opinion of the adviser, the quality of the student's record
justifies this. Twelve credit hours is the minimum to be con-
sidered a full time student; students who wish to take less
than this should be aware that certain University privileges
and benefits require full time status. It is the student's re-
sponsibility to verify the minimum academic load necessary
for these benefits.
Students who wish to ask for adjustments in their aca-
demic loads may petition the Dean through the Director of
Student Services.
NORMAL ACADEMIC PROGRESS
The student will have maintained normal academic
progress when he earns a minimum grade point of 2.0 (C)
average for all work attempted in the Upper Division. In ad-
dition, he is required to take courses in a sequence as speci-
fied by his departmental chairman or adviser. The student
may be excluded from a program of study in the College of
Architecture through failure or refusal to maintain normal
academic progress.
DEAN'S HONOR LIST
Undergraduate students who demonstrate excellence in
their academic work by completing a full course load (mini-
mum of 15 semester hours credit) in a semester term and
achieving a grade point average of 3.5 or better will earn a
position on the Dean's Honor List. Students whose term av-
erages are below 3.5 due to grades of I or X are not eligible.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
To be eligible for graduation, the student must earn a min-
imum grade point average of 2.0 (C) for all work attempted
in the appropriate curriculum while classified in the College.
Courses taken while enrolled in another Upper Division Col-
lege may not apply toward the calculation of the College of
Architecture average. Specific grade requirements for the
various curricula may be obtained from the departmental or
Dean's Offices.
Students planning to enter the Graduate School should
maintain a 3.0 (B) average in Upper Division work.

GRADUATION WITH HONORS AND HIGH HONORS
The faculty will consider recommending students for
graduation with HONORS or HIGH HONORS on the follow-
ing criteria: (a) grade point average, (b) distribution and
quality of subject matter studied, (c) evaluation of the stu-
dents by the faculty, and (d) other pertinent qualities of the
student and his or her work.
The student will be considered for HONORS or HIGH
HONORS upon his earning a minimum academic average
established by the department or program. The average will
be calculated on all work attempted while the student is
classified in the Upper Division. Transfer credits will be ex-
cluded from the average; HONORS or HIGH HONORS may
be awarded upon a minimum of 48 semester hour credits
taken at the University of Florida. Students should check
with their department or program director for minimum av-
erage required.
STUDENT WORK
The College reserves the right to retain student work for
the purpose of record, exhibition, or instruction.
PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE
Students are urged to obtain before graduation some ex-
perience in the employ of practicing professionals in their
particular field, or in some allied work which will give an in-
sight into the problems of professional practice. Such em-
ployment provides an introduction to the methods of actual





Colleges

COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE


practice, and enables the student to derive increased benefit
from advanced work in school. Students should seek the
counsel of their faculty adviser as to the type of practical ex-
perience best suited to their individual needs.
FIELD TRIPS
Each year a number of field trips are arranged to give stu-
dents an opportunity to broaden and extend their educa-
tional experience through study of planning, design and
construction projects of unusual interest. Students fre-
quently combine such studies with attendance at state and
national meetings of the professional organizations in their
respective fields.


GRADUATE DEGREES
The college offers the degrees of Master of Arts in Archi-
tecture, Master of Arts in Urban and Regional Planning, Mas-
ter of Science in Building Construction, and Master of Build-
ing Construction. To meet the needs and goals of each stu-
dent, graduate programs are preparedlin consultation with a
designated member of the. Graduate Faculty of the College
of Architecture. For further information, see the Graduate
School catalog.


I. CURRICULUM IN
ARCHITECTURE
Leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Design (Architecture).
McRae, J.M., Acting Chairman; Crain, E.E., Adviser.
The professional program in architecture, which is ac-
credited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board,
consists of both the undergraduate and graduate curricula.
The undergraduate curriculum leads to the degree Bachelor
of Design (Architecture). Although this is not a professional
degree, it is excellent preparation for careers in the architec-
tural field where registration is not a requirement.
Completion of the two-year graduate curriculum leads to
the professional degree Master of Arts in Architecture, which
meets the educational requirements of Florida statutes for
architectural registration.
In the graduate program optional courses of study are in
architectural design, architectural structural design, environ-
mental technologies, architectural history, and architectural
preservation. These options permit the student to study in
an area of particular interest; however, all options lead to the
same professional degree and each prepares the graduate for
a career in professional practice. For detailed information
see the Graduate Catalog.
The program of study is included below to show a typical
sequence in which courses are taken. Some courses in the
first two years are offered in semesters in addition to those
shown. Consult the course description section in the back of
the catalog for precise information on offerings.

SCHOOL OF BUILDING CONSTRUCTION


The School of Building

Construction


GENERAL STATEMENT
The School of Building Construction was established in
1976 but a curriculum in Building Construction in the Col-
lege of Architecture has been offered continuously since
1935. While a few programs were begun before that, none of
them are still in operation today.
The UF program in 1977 was recognized by the Associated
General Contractors Education and Research Foundation as
outstanding in the United States. In 1981, the School was the
first to receive its five-year reaccreditation from the Ameri-
can Council for Construction Education.
Graduates of the UF School of Building Construction
begin work immediately as project managers, field engi-
neers, project schedulers, cost engineers, assistant super-
intendents, quality controllers and estimators.
The school has a normal Upper Division enrollment of
240, plus 35 students working toward a graduate degree.
Also, a Ph.D. program is offered in conjunction with the Col-
lege of Education.


SCHOLARSHIPS AND
ASSISTANTSHIPS
Information about general financial aid can be obtained
from the Office of Student Financial Affairs; University of
Florida, Gainesville, Florida. Information concerning schol-
arships available specifically for third and fourth year Build-
ing Construction students can be obtained from the School.


HONORARY AND PROFESSIONAL
ORGANIZATIONS

SIGMA LAMBDA CHI
The purpose of Sigma Lambda Chi is to recognize outstan-
ding students in Building Construction for scholastic
achievement and extracurricular activities. Semester mem-
bership averages 30 active members. Sigma Lambda Chi pro-
vides services to BCN students through academic scholar-
ships, plans for.construction coursework, guest lecturers, a
job reference file, and extracurricular skill development
courses. Sigma Lambda Chi provides a channel of com-
munication between students and outstanding alumni in
the construction industry.

speakers, organizing the Homecoming festivities, operating
the Building Construction test bank, carrying out com-
munity service projects, and having semester social gather-
ings.


PROGRAM OF STUDY
This four year program for a Bachelor of Building Con-
struction degree is for students who are interested in prepar-
ing for professional careers in construction, management,
techniques, operations, and related areas in the construction
industry, to include the arts of communications and in-
terpersonal relations, rather than in architectural and engi-
neering design.
Graduate programs leading to the degrees of Master of
Science in Building Construction and Master of Building
Construction are offered, as well as a Ph.D. program in con-
junction with the College of Education.
The Freshman and Sophomore programs of study are de-
signed to provide easy transfer for junior and community
college graduates. With proper course planning, transfer stu-
dents with A.A. degrees may complete the four-year degree
program in four remaining semesters at the University. Pros-
pective junior and community college transfer students
should consult their advisers or write to the School of Build-
ing Construction for a pre-Building Construction program of
local study.
Opportunities for advancement and increasing responsi-
bilities exist in all areas of the construction industry, a few of
which include land development; home building; public
building; industrialized building systems; commercial, in-
dustrial, marine and heavy construction; underwater and
space age facilities; materials and equipment sales and in-
stallations; construction product research, development,

Colleges


The College of Business

Administration
The College of Business Administration of the University
of Florida was organized in 1926-1927, and includes program
of study in accounting; economics, finance, insurance, real
estate and urban analysis, management and administrative
sciences, marketing, and computer and information sci-
ences.
The College's educational objectives are (a) to provide a
broad formal instructional foundation for responsible partic-
ipation in business, the professions and government; (b) to
stimulate interest in social, economic and civic responsi-
bilities, (c) to develop competence in making business de-
cisions and in evaluating policy; and (d) to offer fields of
specialization in business or economics, and, especially, to
encourage intellectual inquiry.
The guiding principle of this College is a broad foundation
of study outside the college, which prepares the student for
specialization through limited concentration in certain fields
of business administration and economics. To this end, each
program of study is constructed around a core of courses in
economics and the major functional areas of business.
Graduate programs in business administration and eco-
nomics are provided under the Graduate School of Business
Administration for advanced students with interest in ca-
reers in reaching, research, or business. The College partici-
pates in programs of adult and executive development edu-
cation.
In addition to the University computer center, the College
maintains a college computer center for instructional and re-
search purposes.

Colleges


College of Dentistry
The College of Dentistry is one of the six colleges which
constitute the J. Hillis Miller Health Center. The College of
Dentistry, as well as the other units of the Health Center, is
an integral component, both geographically and func-
tionally, of the University of Florida. Many conjoint projects
between the College and other units of the Health Center
and University have been formulated and implemented.
The 1957 the Florida Legislature authorized the develop-
ment of a College of Dentistry in Gainesville, but it was not
until the late 1960's that faculty memberswere recruited and
program development initiated.
The thirteen departments which make up the College of
Dentistry are Basic Dental Sciences, Community Dentistry,
Dental Biomaterials, Dental Education, Endodontics, Oc-
clusion and Fixed Prosthodontics, Operative Dentistry, Oral
Medicine, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Orthodontics,
Pediatric Dentistry, Periodontics, and Removable Pros-
thodontics. A modular curriculum has been developed
based on multidisciplinary teaching by these departments.
The curriculum is designed to permit students the maximal
degree of flexibility and individualization in their program. It
is a competency-based curriculum in which behavioral ob-
jectives, rather than time, serve as the primary guidelines for
student advancement. The length of time in the curriculum
is flexible but students must complete at least one-twelfth of
the total curriculum each semester. The self-paced cur-
riculum is planned so that a student may complete the pro-
gram in less than four calendar-years. Self-instruction con-
stitutes a significant part of the teaching methodology.
The goals of this College are to prepare the graduate to
enter private dental practice, to enter graduate programs of
any of the dental specialties, to enter into research activities,
and to be prepared for a lifetime of continuing education.
The Dental Sciences Building was first occupied in August,
1975, and was officially dedicated March 6, 1976. The first
class of students was graduated in 1976. The College offers
the Doctor of Dental Medicine (D.M.D.) degree. (The


D.M.D. and D.D.S. degrees are synonymous.) The College
presently offers Advanced Educational programs in Dental
Public Health, Oral Pathology, Orthodontics, Pediatric Den-
tistry, and Periodontics. In addition, a one-year General
Practice Residency program and a three-year Oral and Max-
illofacial Surgery Residency program are available.
The College of Dentistry aspires to attract students of the
highest caliber into its various programs. High standards of
scholastic achievement, moral character, and motivation are
expected of the applicant. The student of dentistry must
possess a high basic aptitude supplemented by an academic
preparation of the highest order because of the vast area of
science which must be mastered by the dentist. The highly
personal relationship between patient and dentist places the
latter in a position of trust, which demands maturity, in-
tegrity, intellectual honesty, and a sense of responsibility. A
broad representation of the ethnic mixture of the state is
sought in the student body through an active recruitment
program. The College strictly adheres to the principle of
ethnic, racial, sexual, religious and social equality among its
student body and faculty.
Generally, students applying for admission should plan to
complete the requirements for a bachelor's degree. How-
ever, outstanding students may be accepted without fulfill-
ing the degree requirements, provided they show evidence
of sufficient academic preparation and the personal charac-
teristics necessary for the study of dentistry. Applicants with
an' overall B average as a minimum will receive strongest
consideration for admission to the College of Dentistry. A
limited number of out-of-state students, in proportion to the
number in the University as a whole, may be admitted. Ap-
plicants should initiate the application process approx-
imately fifteen months prior to anticipated enrollment by
submitting an application through the centralized American
Association of Dental Schools Application Service
(AADSAS), P.O. Box 4000, Iowa City, Iowa 52240.
Further detailed information will be found in the College
of Dentistry Bulletin. Copies may be obtained by writing to
the Office of Admissions, College of Dentistry, University of
Florida, Box J-445, JHMHC, Gainesville, Florida 32610.







COLLEGE OF EDUCATION


College of Education


GENERAL STATEMENT
The College of Education, a professional college, has as its
purpose the preparation of qualified personnel for positions
in service, leadership, and, research in education. The Col-
lege of Education is the officially designated unit of the Uni-
versity of Florida that is responsible for teacher education
programs. University teacher education programs are ap-
proved by the State Department of Education and the Na-
tional Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education.
The College of Education has undergraduate programs
leading to the preparation and certification of teachers in
elementary education, secondary education, and K-12 pro-
grams in art and special education (mental retardation). Pro-
grams of study in guidance and counseling, school adminis-
tration, and college teaching are available at the graduate
levels only. Undergraduate students interested in these
areas will usually complete their bachelor's degree in one of
the teaching fields found on the following pages.
Classroom teaching is only one of the many careers avail-
able to graduates from the College of Education. School ad-
ministrators, supervisors, counselors, school social workers,
school psychologists, attendance workers, speech therapists,
and reading clinicians are among the many careers found in
education. Other career opportunities for those having de-
grees in education are in the areas of development and dis-
tribution of educational materials, educational television,
personnel work, counseling, foreign service, peace corps, as.
educational specialists and training officers in industry, and
in educational research.
The University of Florida teacher education programs are
designed to assist students with developing three broad
areas of competence: (1) general preparation consisting of a
background of liberal education; (2) the professional se-
quence consisting of work in psychological and social foun-
dations of education, the school program, and internship or
student teaching; and (3) the teaching field or specialization
in the area of subject matter to be taught.

ELEMENTARY EDUCATION
(Grades one through six)
The Elementary Education Program is an innovative ap-
proach to the professional preparation of educators. The
program is based upon four major assumptions: that a per-
son learns best when (1) learning is made personally mean-
ingful and relevant, (2) learning is adjusted to the rates and
needs of the individual, (3) there is a great deal of self direc-
tion, and (4) there is a close relationship between theory and
practice.
Aside from the 26 semester hours of required courses
listed below, there are no courses as such in the Elementary
Program. Instead, each semester in the program, the student
enrolls in the appropriate section of professional studies in
education (EDE 3804), for a variable number of hours to total
29 by the completion of the program. In addition, the stu-
dent will register for a total of 11 semester hours in EDE 4943
-Student Teaching in the Elementary School.
Each semester the professional studies will comprise par-
ticipation in (a) seminar a small discussion group which
gives continuity and direction to the program by providing
students with a place to share their meanings and problems
in interaction with their peers while building a personal ed-
ucational belief system; (b) study of content selected from
among the.following areas (each of which must be mastered
by graduation) curriculum, language arts, math, reading, sci-
ence, social studies, art, and music. In each areas, students
pace their own progress, attend special lectures, participate
in small study groups or workshops, and pursue independ-
ent study; (c) an appropriate field experience carried out in
a local public or private school or community agency.
Students' work 'within the program is graded on a
Satisfactory-Unsatisfactory (S-U) basis. The student con-
tinues his work in a given learning area until he demon-
strates satisfactory competence in the area.
The program in Elementary Education will provide aca-
demic and field learning activities which place emphasis on
the development and teaching of the child from age six
through age twelve.
The four semester professional program for elementary
education includes:

Colleges


College of Engineering


GENERAL STATEMENT
The engineer engages in creative design and construction,
and in research and development serving to bridge be-
tween human needs and the storehouse of theoretical
knowledge. In applying science to the common purpose of
life, the engineer couples science with the management of
people, money, machines, and materials. Engineering
challenges the individual, stimulating ingenuity and re-
sourcefulness, and yielding a rewarding sense of creative ac-
complishment.
The engineer deals with real problems in the real world.
This requires a thorough working knowledge of mathemat-
ics and the sciences as well as an understanding of the legal,
economic, and social restrictions of contemporary society.
Clear and precise communications, whether oral or written,
are required of the engineer when delivering judgments,
plans, and decisions. A sound knowledge of the engineering
field and of related disciplines is required so that the engi-
neer can work effectively with others other engineers, sci-
entists, and technicians in fulfilling engineering assign-
ments. Above all, the engineer is expected to be a respon-
sible citizen.
The various undergraduate programs in the College of En-
gineering are founded on mathematics and the physical sci-
ences. Additional emphasis is placed upon the humanities
Sand social sciences to develop judgment, perspective and
curiosity. Although many graduates continue their formal
,education beyond the bachelor's degree, the education of
an engineer should not stop upon completion of a degree
program: education, formal or otherwise,, is a lifelong pro-
cess for the successful engineer.
The curricula of the College of Engineering are planned to
achieve these objectives and to provide a wide range of
choices to the student selecting a degree objective. The de-
partment is the basic organizational unit within the College
of Engineering, and has both academic and administrative
responsibilities for programs leading to the bachelor's de-
gree. Departments with baccalaureate degree responsi-
bilities and the bachelor's degrees they offer are:
Agricultural Engineering Department
Bachelor of Science in Engineering (Agricultural Engineer-
ing)
Chemical Engineering Department
Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering
Bachelor of Science (Chemical Engineering)

Dean's Office, and leading to the Bachelor of Science (In-
terdisciplinary Engineering Studies) degree.
For information relative to Graduate degrees in engineer-
ing refer to other sections of this catalog, or the Graduate
School catalog.
The Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accred-
itation Board for Engineering and Technology (formerly, the
Engineers' Council for Professional Development) has ac-
credited programs in the-College of Engineering leading to

neering and Metallurgical Engineering
Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering
Bachelor of Science in Engineering (Nuclear Engineering)
Master of Engineering with a major in Coastal and
Oceanographic Engineering
Essential Preparation
Modern engineering education demands much in the way
of specific high school preparation not required in other col-
lege programs. The beginning engineering student should,
have a good understanding of the basic physical sciences, a
highly developed ability in mathematics, and the com-
petence to read rapidly and with comprehension. The Col-
lege of Engineering considers that a minimum adequate
preparation follows:
In high school, the student should include the following
subjects:
'Essentials Year
Elementary algebra ................................ ........ ... ............... 1
Intermediate and advanced algebra .................................... 1
Plane geometry ..................................... ............. ............... 1
Trigonom etry ............................... ................ ........... ...... '
C hem istry ......................................................... ............. 1
Physics ................................... ........................ 1
Desirable
Additional M mathematics ........................................... ............. /
Deficiencies in the above subjects may be overcome by
registering in certain foundation courses before proceeding
with parts of the regular engineering program.
The General Plan of Study
The study programs leading to the bachelor's degrees in
engineering, described under the separate headings on the
following pages, are carefully planned into an organized se-
quence. The aggressive, strongly motivated student with
proper high school preparation can complete one of these
programs in about 41/2 years, including a summer term, by
carrying course loads of 16 credit hours. Many students will
require more than this length of time.
Some students, for different reasons, are not prepared to
enter directly into one of the curricula described below. For
example, a student may have attended a high school which
did not offer all the preparatory courses necessary for entry
into an engineering program. Or possibly the student's ob-
jectives changed late in the high school program, resulting in
a preparation deficient in areas required of potential engi-
neering students. In all such cases, the time required to com-
plete the degree requirements can be expected to increase.







COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING


As a general rule, subjects basic to all fields of engineering
are studied while the student is enrolled in the first two
years of the University, or in a pre-engineering program of a
community or junior college. Then, when specialized study
is taken in the third and later years in the College of Engi-
neering, the program of course work can be tailored to the
student's interests and abilities.


FINANCIAL AID
Information about general financial aid can be obtained
from the Director of Student Financial Aid, University of
FLorida, Gainesville, Florida. The College of Engineering
does not offer financial aid for students at the freshman or
sophomore level since students are not normally admitted
into the College until their junior year. The only exceptions
involve students who plan to major in Agricultural Engineer-
ing or Chemical Engineering and minority students. The Ag-
ricultural Engineering Department and Chemical Engineer-
ing Department have a few small industry supported schol-
arships for students at the freshman level and the Chemical
Engineering Department also has a few awards for students
transferring at the junior level. Minority students planning to
major in Engineering should contact the Director of Minority
Affairs in the College of Engineering for information about
financial aid.
After a student is enrolled in the College he or she may ap-
ply for a scholarship. The awards, which are limited in
number, are made each spring for the following academic
year. Most are based on financial need, as well as scholastic
performance. Applications are available from the depart-
ment counselors.
An emergency short-term loan fund is available through
the Dean's Office to assist students through emergency situ-
ations.


HONORARY, PROFESSIONAL, AND
TECHNICAL SOCIETIES
Students in the College of Engineering are encouraged to
participate in extracurricular activities including active mem-
bership in honorary, professional, and technical organize:
tions both at the college and the departmental level. Almost
all of the nationally recognized engineering organizations
having student chapters are represented including:

Alpha Epsilon (Agricultural Engineering Honor Society)
Alpha Nu Sigma (Nuclear Engineering Honor Society)
Alpha Pi Mu (Industrial & Systems Engineering Honor Socie-
ty)
Alpha Sigma Mu (Metallurgical Engineering Honor Society)

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
The College of Engineering encourages applications from
all persons regardless of their sex, race, religion, or cultural
background.
Because of the limitations on space, facilities and number
of faculty the College of Engineering has had to become a
selective admission college. The two major criteria for ad-
mission are grade point average and completion of prerequi-
site courses. In addition, students must have taken the Col-
lege Level Academic Skills Test (see page 33). All applicants
are referred to the departments for selection, with g.p.a.
being most important. In future terms the minimum g.p.a.
will vary with number of applicants, availability of space,
and numbers of faculty in a given program. Florida residents
are given priority. Nonresidents are admitted only after qual-
ified resident applicants have been admitted.
Specific requirements for admission to the College are
listed below.
Direct Admission: Requirements for direct admission to
the College are given in the Admissions section of this
catalog.
, Students Classified UF: A student in a lower division col-
lege can request transfer to the College of Engineering any
time after completion of the freshman year.
Many departments require substantial completion of the
mathematics, physics, chemistry and English course se-
quences of the pre-engineering program, described under
Freshman and Sophomore Requirements below, for a stu-
dent to be considered for admission.
Transfer from Community and Junior Colleges: A student
in a community or junior college who has completed the as-
sociate degree or 60 semester hours of credit is eligible to
transfer directly into the College of Engineering. Students
who do not meet either of these criteria must enroll in the
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences for at least one semester
before transferring into the College of Engineering.
Students wishing to transfer into the College of Engineer-
ing after completing the associate degree in a community or
junior college should tailor their associate-degree program
as follows:
1. Satisfy the general education requirements of the com-
munity or junior college.
2. Take the following recommended course work:
a. mathematics through analytic geometry, and calculus
of several variables 12 semester hours
b. Chemistry including general chemistry and quali-
tative analysis 8 semester hours
c. general physics with calculus and laboratory,- 8
semester hours
d. engineering graphics, if required in the proposed ma-
jor department 2 semester hours
,e. biological sciences 3 semester hours
3. Avoid taking technical education courses. Such courses
are not normally creditable towards an engineering de-
gree.
Departments with Restricted Admission: Because they re-
ceive applications from many more students than they can
accommodate, several departments have established admis-
sion standards above the minimum requirements for the
College of Engineering. These departments are:
Aerospace Engineering (see Engineering Sciences)
Chemical Engineering
Civil Engineering
Electrical Engineering
Computer and Information Sciences
Engineering Sciences
Industrial and Systems Engineering
Mechanical Engineering
Nuclear Engineering

FRESHMAN AND
SOPHOMORE REQUIREMENTS
The program below is described for students whose high
school preparation meets the criteria previously described.
The minimum course load for full-time students is 12 cred-
it hours each semester, but most students take 14 to 16 credit
hours. At this rate, it takes at least 41/2 years, including a sum-
mer term, to earn a B.S. degree. It will take somewhat longer
for students who need preparation courses before entering
the program below.
In planning the physical science and mathematics portion
of the academic program, a freshman should talk with a Col-
lege of Engineering faculty adviser.
The requirements in Social Sciences, English, Humanities,
and (in most departments) Biological Sciences can be met
only by (a) appropriate College Level Examination Program
(CLEP) credits or (b) courses selected from the listing in the
Authorized Courses for General Education section of this
catalog. In a few cases as noted below, the College of Engi-
neering requires specific courses in fulfilling the General Ed-
ucation requirements for these subject areas.

COLLEGE REGULATIONS
English Requirement: Responsibility for the correct and ef-
fective use of his or her spoken and written English rests pri-
marily upon the student. Any instructor in the College of En-
gineering may, at any time, with the approval of the Chair-
man of the department and the Dean of the College of Engi-
neering, require a student who shows a deficiency in English
to complete additional courses, over and above the cur-
riculum requirements for the degree.
Each student in the College is required to complete the
course ENC 3213, Technical Writing, with a grade of C or bet-
ter, after being classified as a 3EG student.
Thesis: A thesis is not required of candidates for the bacca-
laureate degree in the College of Engineering. However, ex-
ceptional students may be granted permission by the Dean
of the College, upon recommendation of the chairman of
the department, to undertake a thesis in lieu of required or
elective work in the department in which the student is en-
rolled. Not more than four semester hours will be allowed
for such thesis work.
Credit for Special Work. ,
1. Upon the recommendation of the chairman of the de-
partment and the approval by the Dean, a student during
the course of study may do practical work under approved
supervision in industry. By submitting a satisfactory report,
based upon a previously approved outline, and by passing
an examination, college credit may be received not to ex-
ceed three semester hours. Students will register for the
proper departmental course to receive such credit.
2. Where it is determined by the department concerned
that an exceptional student may profit by supplementing
the regular program of course work ip a particular area,
the student may register for special problems in the
chosen field. Credit for such work should not exceed six
semester hours. To receive such credit, the student must
register for the departmental course number 4905.
A student may not have more than eight semester hours
total for work in industry, special problems, and High Hon-
ors project.
Elective Credit: It is the policy of the College that students,
classified 3EG and higher, are not normally allowed to use
freshman level courses for technical and nontechnical elec-
tive credit. Foreign language credits at the freshman level
may, within the discretion of the department, be credited as
non-technical electives, provided that the student presents
at least two semesters of work with a grade of "C" or better
in the same language.
Grade-Average Required for Graduation: The requirement
for graduation with a Bachelor's degree is a grade average of
"C" or higher in all work taken after being classified as a jun-
ior, as well as for all UF work, and.successful completion of
all required courses.,
Maintenance of Academic Standards: If at any time after
admission to the College of Engineering a student's college
grade point average falls below 2.00 the student will be
placed on college probation. A student may also be placed
on probation if normal academic progress is not maintained
in the program of study. The section of this catalog on 'Stu-
dent Regulations' authorizes any college to set its own stan-
dards for exclusion of a student who fails or refuses to main-
tain normal academic progress. It is the policy of the College
of Engineering that any ,undergraduate student who
withdraws from the University for the second time will be
automatically placed upon college probation which will
continue until graduation. Any student on college probation
for this reason who withdraws for a third time from the Uni-
versity may be ineligible for further registration in the Col-
lege of Engineering. Failure to satisfactorily complete the
terms of probation will result in the ineligibility of the stu-
dent for further registration in the College of Engineering.
Advanced ROTC: Some engineering students may elect to
enroll in the advanced ROTC programs offered by the Army,
Navy and the Air Force. Graduates of these programs are








COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING


commissioned as second lieutenants or ensigns as described
elsewhere in this catalog.
It is the policy of the Accreditation Board for Engineering
and Technology which accredits engineering curricula, that
student enrollment in advanced ROTC programs represents
a second career objective quite apart from that of pro-
fessional engineering. Accordingly,advanced courses in Mil-
itary Science are only acceptable on a limited basis, with de-
partment approval, for credit as technical or non-technical
electives toward a degree in engineering.
Correspondence Courses: (See Student Academic Regu-
lations-- "Degrees and Graduation.")
A student in the College will not be permitted to register
for and work on correspondence courses while enrolled in
the College unless special permission is obtained from the
Dean of the College and the Registrar. A student on proba-
tion must have permission of the Dean to register for cor-
respondence courses when not enrolled in the College. A
student who has been suspended will not be permitted to
take correspondence courses for credit until the suspension
is removed. A grade of "C" or better is required to receive
credit for a correspondence course.
Dean's List:
Each semester there is compiled a Dean's List of those stu-
dents whose work for the preceding semester has been of a
high order. This recognition is accorded to students in the
College of Engineering who:
a. received a minimum of 14 hours of credit during the
semester;
b. received a 3.2 average during the semester; and
c. have no grade below "C" for the semester.
Drop Policy: Students classified 1 and 2EG are allowed a
total of two drops after the published drop-date. Similarly,
students classified 3, 4, 5, and 6EG are allowed a total of two
unrestricted drops. A student with an initial course load of
15 credits or more will be permitted to drop a course without
penalty or use one of the free drops, provided this is done by
the end of the seventh week of class and the toTal credits re-
maining are 12 or more. There is no petition appeal from this
policy.



HONOR STUDENTS
Honors: Students in the College of Engineering are desig-
nated as Honor Students when they have met all the follow-
ing conditions:
1. have achieved a college grade point average of 3.30 or
higher (college g.p.a. is defined as all work taken after
being classified as a junior);
2. have been registered in the College for at least one
semester;
3. have completed at least 16 credit hours at the University
of Florida after being classified as 3EG or higher;
4. have been recommended by the major department after
the departmental faculty have reviewed the student's re-
cord for satisfactory conduct and academic progress.
For honor students, the grade point average referred to in
condition 1 above is termed the honor point average.
Special consideration is given honor students who wish to
substitute courses, provided that they have maintained the
conditions for honor student designation. The student peti-
tions the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs for such sub-
stitutions.
Graduation with honors requires, in addition to the nor-
mal requirements for graduation,
1. completion of all work required by the major depart-
ment and a college grade point average of 3.30 or higher;
2. recommendation of the major department.
High Honors: Certain honor students may be invited by the
faculty of the major department to participate in a special
program leading to graduation with High Honors.
Eligibility for the high honors program requires: .
1. a college honor point average of 3.50 or higher;


2. recommendation by the faculty of the major depart-
ment.
Participation in the high honors program requires that the
student:
1. accept in writing the invitation to participate in the pro-
gram no later than the end of the term before graduation;
2. carry out a high honors project and submit a thesis
based on the project.
If the student accepts the invitation to participate in the
program, the Dean appoints a committee to oversee and ap-
prove all stages of the thesis project. The committee, recom-
mended to the Dean by the department chairman, is com-
posed of two faculty members from the student's major de-
partment and one faculty member from another department
of the University.
The thesis project is normally not waived unless the stu-
dent has an honor point average of 3.80 or higher, but this is
discretionary with the committee in exceptional cases. In
planning the student's program, the committee takes into
account the academic goals of the student. The committee
supervises the High Honors project and/or the oral examina-
tion; upon satisfactory completion of all requirements, the
committee recommends the candidate to the faculty of the
major department.
Graduation with High Honors requires (a) completion of
all required work of the major department and a college
honor point average of at least 3.50 and (b) recommendation
of the major department.
When a high honors project is a part of the program, credit
may be obtained by registration in courses carrying the pre-
fix of the appropriate department. Not more than a total of
eight credit hours will be allowed for high honors project
work, special projects, and practical work in industry. Regis-
tration for variable credit of one to four hours per semester
requires Committee approval.

AEROSPACE ENGINEERING
The undergraduate and graduate degree programs in
aerospace engineering are administered by the Department
of Engineering Sciences. The Bachelor of Science in Engi-
neering (Aerospace Engineering) program is designed to
prepare its graduates for careers in aeronautical engineering
and space-related engineering fields. It also prepares stu-
dents for the post-baccalaureate education appropriate in
preparation for careers in advanced research and develop-
ment.
The program incorporates a solid foundation of physical
and mathematical fundamentals which provides the basis
for the development of the engineering principles essential
to the understanding of both atmospheric and extra-at-
mospheric flight. Aerodynamics, light-weight structures,
flight propulsion and related subjects typical of aeronautical
engineering are included. Also, there are courses which in-
troduce problems associated with space flight and its re-
quirements. Integration of fundamental principles into use-
ful applications is made in design work in the junior and sen-
ior years. Thus, the program prepares the student to con-
tribute to the future technological growth which promises
exciting and demanding careers in aerospace engineering.
Areas of individual interest may be pursued through
counseled choice of elective work. Examples of concentra-
tion areas are:
Aerodynamics
Design
Flight Propulsion
Flight Structures
Space Technology
Stability, Control and Guidance
Graduates of the Aerospace Engineering program are pre-
pared for employment in the aerospace industry in Florida
and elsewhere. Their broad scope of fundamental prepara-
tion also suits them for specialized work in related industries
and government laboratories.
Admission Requirements: The baccalaureate program in






Colleges

COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING


Aerospace Engineering is a selective admission program. Ad-
mission decisions are made by a faculty committee accord-
ing to the following criteria:
1. Students making normal progress toward completion of
pre-engineering prerequisite courses and who have
earned an overall gradepoint average of 2.7 or higher will
ordinarily be admitted; those with 2.3 or lower will or-
dinarily not be admitted.
2. The admissions committee will consider the following ad-
ditional factors in reaching its final decision: performance
in calculus, physics, and chemistry courses completed,
and other evidence of motivation and suitability for a ca-
reer in Aerospace Engineering including performance in
relevant work experience.
These criteria are applicable to all students, independent
'of the location of their lower division work.

AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING
The agricultural and food industry is the largest single in-
Sdustry in the United States and in Florida. The growth of ag-
riculture and technology have proceeded together and now
agricultural production and processing industries require
advanced machines and systems. The industries providing
these machines and the related systems require engineering
skills which agricultural engineers provide. The agricultural
engineer is also involved in natural resources conservation
in his drainage and watershed hydrology activities.
Agricultural engineering is unique in its concern for the
engineering problems of biological production and pro-
cessing. The agricultural engineer solves the engineering
problems associated with agriculture such as the conversion
of the sun's energy into biological (food) products using soil
nutrition resources and water in controlled ways. He uses his
basic engineering training combined with knowledge of ag-
ricultural and biological systems to design functional ma-
chines and equipment to process and handle these products
so that quality is enhanced. No challenge could be greater
and more rewarding than that related to food production
and processing in view of the population explosion and
projected world food shortage.
The education of the agricultural engineer includes basic
physical and engineering sciences and also courses in
biology, soils, plant science and animal science. The courses
in agricultural engineering unify the concepts learned into a
practical ability to solve a broad range of engineering prob-
lems confronting the agricultural and food industry.
Agricultural engineers have numerous career op-
portunities in various segments of the large Florida agricul-
tural industry and.with manufacturers of equipment and
supplies for agriculture throughout the nation. Agricultural
engineers are sought by state and federal agencies for ca-
reers in irrigation, drainage and water resource management
and pollution control. Excellent opportunities are available
for graduate study. This program is offered cooperatively
with the College of Agriculture.
Degree programs: The Agricultural Engineering Depart-
ment offers the following degrees: Bachelor of Science in En-
gineering (Agricultural Engineering), Master of Engineering,
Master of Science, the Engineer Degree, and Doctor of Phi-
losophy.

CHEMICAL ENGINEERING
Although chemical engineering has existed as a field of
engineering for only about sixty years, its name is no longer
completely descriptive of this dynamic, growing profession.
For the work of the chemical engineer is neither restricted to
the chemical industry nor limited to chemical changes or
chemistry. Instead, modern chemical engineers, who are also
called process engineers, are concerned with all the physical
and chemical changes that matter is made to undergo to
produce economically a product or result that is useful to
mankind. More than most fields, the education of the chem-
ical engineer has been based on the fundamental sciences of
physics and chemistry, on mathematical and computer tech-
niques, and on basic engineering principles. Such a broad
background has made the chemical engineer extremely ver-
satile and capable of working in a wide variety of industries:
chemical, petroleum, aerospace, nuclear, materials, micro-
electronics, sanitation, food processing, and computer tech-
nology. The chemical industry alone provides an opportun-
ity for the chemical engineer to participate in the research,
development, design or operation of plants for the produce,
tion of new synthetic fibers, plastics, chemical fertilizers, vi-
tamins, antibiotics, rocket fuels, nuclear fuels, paper pulp,
photographic products, paints, fuel cells, transistors, and the
thousands of chemicals that are used as intermediates in the
manufacture of the above products.
In practice, the activities of the chemical engineer are suf-
ficiently diversified to attract a wide range of talents and
abilities. The chemical engineers working in process design
determine the sequence of steps to be followed in produc-
Sing a useful product, calculate the sizes of the equipment re-
quired and the total cost, those working in development re-
search do small scale studies on new processes or products;
those working in production improve and coordinate the
operation of plants and equipment. Others do fundamental
research on the laws of science and their application. Many
chemical engineers work in technical sales, cost estimation,
patent law, and plant supervision. A chemical engineering
background is often the best route to top-level management
positions.
Degree Programs: The following degrees are offered by
the Chemical Engineering Department: Bachelor of Science
in Chemical Engineering, Bachelor of Science, Master of En-
gineering, Master of Science, Doctor of Philosophy.
The University of Florida and the Department of Chemical
Engineering encourage application from all cultural, racial,
religious and ethnic groups. However, because of rigorous
requirements of technical competency to complete the pro-
fessional program, and limitations of staff and facilities, ad-
mission is a selective process. Applicants are expected to ex-
ceed the requirements listed below, but doing so does not
guarantee admission.
The admission committee will consider such factors as
lower division grades (generally a GPA of 2.8 in technical
courses is required), test data and adequacy of prerequisites.
If the circumstances indicate these factors are incompletely
indicative of qualification, other factors shall be considered
such as motivation for a Chemical Engineering career, per-
sonal record and characteristics of suitability for the pro-
fession.
While applications are accepted up to the dates as speci-
fied in the front of the catalog admission standards may be
higher for later applicants, particularly when most decisions
have already been made (approximately March 15 for Fall
admission, two months before other intended entrance
times).
All Chemical Engineering majors shall maintain satisfac-
tory progress (GPA of 2.0 or higher) in Chemical Engineering
professional courses as well as in overall record. Also, to pro-
ceed to succeeding courses, "C" grades or better must be
obtained in ECH 3012, 3023, 3203, and CAP 3210. However,
since enrollment in selected courses prerequisite to senior
level professional courses may be limited by insufficient

staff and facilities, minimum performance may not guaran-
tee completion of the curriculum.
All prospective students are urged to contact the Depart-
ment directly for more detailed information about careers
and degree programs.

CURRICULUM LEADING TO THE
DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF
SCIENCE & TO THE
MASTERS DEGREE IN
ENGINEERING
The Department has also developed an alternative route
for above-average students to attain high-level knowledge
in applied science and chemical engineering fundamentals.
This program consists of a bachelor's degree directly
coupled to a Master of Engineering degree which can be
completed within 5/2 years.
The bachelor's degree contains most of the same ChE
courses as for the BSCHE degree and is awarded to students
who have been admitted to the Graduate School. The ME
degree involves the same spectrum of Chemical Engineering
areas but with more sophisticated material than is contained
in the BSCHE degree.
In the minimum of 156 semester credits, the student will
have earned a Master's degree and reached a significant
level of professional education and will b6 capable of enter-
ing essentially all process industries in positions ranging
from research to design, development, analysis, or opera-
tions.
The undergraduate program parallelsthe BSCHE program
until the last three terms when the material in some courses
and most electives are postponed to the graduate level
where it is upgraded and supplemented. Details of the grad-
uate program can be obtained from the Graduate Coordi-
nator.
The curriculum consists of all courses required for the
BSCHE degree except for ECH 4323, 4264. Also, 3 credits of
non-technical electives and 0 credits of option courses are
required.

CIVIL ENGINEERING
Civil Engineering is directly concerned with the activities
of mania and his environment. It is the oldest and most di-
verse branch of engineering and includes the design and
construction of bridges, buildings, dams, waterways, coastal
protection works, airports, pipe lines, missile launching facil-
ities, blast shelters, railroads, highways, sanitary systems,
ocean structures and facilities, foundations, harbors, water
works, and many other systems and.structures upon which
modern civilization depends. In its broadest sense, the func-
tion of the civil engineer may be defined as the adaptation
of the physical features of the earth to the needs of man. Ap-
proximately one-fourth of all engineers are engaged in Civil
Engineering.
The concentration of population into cities, the mass use
of the automobile and the airplane, the increasing demands
of industry for greater quantities of power and the public's
demand for clean streams and beaches, for clean air, and the .
potential for man's expansion into space and the oceans
present the civil engineer with many challenging problems.
To assist the young engineer to, meet these challenges, the
Civil Engineering Department offers a basic program that
provides the minimum education for practice in this broad
field of engineering services to society. Beyond the
bachelor's degree, advanced degrees may be obtained in
several of the major areas of civil engineering such as trans-
portation, hydraulics, structural, soil mechanics, foundations
and construction.
While it is essential that the civil engineer understand the
fundamentals of his chosen field, it is also necessary that he
understand the role other branches of engineering play in
the completed work. The Civil Engineering curriculum
therefore includes courses from other engineering dis-
ciplines, and because of this brad program, it provides an
excellent basic engineering education. Thus, the student







COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING


who is not sure which field of engineering to choose is pro-
vided with the broadest of engineering backgrounds, a
springboard, so to speak, to specialization.
Degree Programs:
The Civil Engineering Department offers the following de-
grees: Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Bachelor of
Land Surveying; Master of Engineering, Master of Science,
the Engineer Degree, and Doctor of Philosophy.
The program of study leading to the degree of Bachelor of
Science in Civil Engineering has been established to meet
the requirements for entry into the professional practice of
civil engineering and to meet the general education require-
ments of the University of Florida. The program is divided
into two parts: a two year pre-engineering program and the
upper division professional portion. The pre-engineering
program may be completed while classified as UF in the Col-
ege of Liberal Arts and Sciences or, in most instances, with
the pre-engineering Associate of Arts degree program of-
fered by the various community colleges in Florida.
Civil Engineering is a broad discipline of study that in-
fluences the life of all society. The requirements to enter the-
profession are rigorous and the academic program is longer,
therefore, than those of many other disciplines. The program
requires 'completion of 140 semester hours and most stu-
dents should plan on an educational period of five years.
All courses required for the BSCE degree will be listed in
the University of Florida Bulletin with an indication of the
probable term, Fall or Spring, in which they will be taught.
Courses will be offered as announced but there is no cer-
tainty they will be offered at other times during the year.
Students should familiarize themselves with the degree re-
quirements and arrange their schedule accordingly. Faculty
advisers will assist the students in planning their program.
Admissions Requirements:
Students entering the College of Engineering for study in
Civil Engineering at the 3EG entry level are expected to have
completed the pre-professional program described in the
College of Liberal Arts and Science section of this bulletin or
a pre-engineering program leading to the Associate of Arts
degree. A minimum grade point average of 2.25 is required
for admission to the Department of Civil Engineering. A min-
imum C average is required on all attempts for all sequential
courses including a grade of C or better in the final course of
the sequence. In addition, a minimum grade of C is required
in all English courses, Engineering Statistics, and FORTRAN
Programming. A minimum C grade is required in all upper
division courses taken prior to application for admission to
the Department.
Degree Requirements:
A minimum grade of C is required for Statics, Dynamics,
Strength of Materials, all courses shown as Group B, and
those courses that are prerequisites for more advanced
courses in the program. An upper division minimum grade
point average of 2.0 is required for graduation.

ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
Electrical Engineering is a science oriented branch of engi-
neering primarily concerned with all phases and develop-
ment of the transmission and utilization of power and in-
telligence. The study of electrical engineering is commonly
divided into the academic areas of circuits, electronics,
fields, electric energy engineering, communications, control,
and computer engineering.
Because of the extremely rapid growth and changes relat-
ing to the application of electrical engineering principles,
the curriculum is designed for concentration on a solid core
of the basic foundation courses rather than on a sampling of
application courses which may soon become obsolete. Be-
cause of the strong core program, the electrical electives are
considered primarily as courses to be taken according to in-
dividual interest in order to permit a student to delve deeply
into subject matter previously introduced. Technical elec-
tives, as well as nontechnical electives, must be selected
from the approved lists of the Electrical Engineering Depart-
ment.
The department's extensive laboratory facilities and varied
research programs will assist in highlighting both the ex-
perimental and theoretical approaches to electrical engi-
neering.
Beyond the baccalaureate degree the department offers
graduate programs for students interested in advanced de-
grees. As more and more students are continuing to further
their education in the graduate schools of the nation, it is
advisable that 'those who may become qualified seek early
counseling. Even as early as the sixth and seventh semesters,







COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING


the course work in many cases may be directed toward
future graduate work. Certainly, the choice of electives
taken during the last few semesters of the undergraduate
curriculum may relate to areas of interest to be pursued in
the graduate program.
Degree Programs: The Electrical Engineering Department
offers the following degrees: Bachelor of Science in Electrical
Engineering, Master of Engineering, Master of Science, Engi-
neer, and Doctor of Philosophy.
Admission: The number of applicants who can be ac-
cepted is limited by the available classroom and laboratory
space, laboratory facilities, and faculty. That number varies
because of normal fluctuations in the number of students
who graduate and who leave the program. It is the
department's policy to admit the best-qualified applicants as
demonstrated by high academic achievement, within the
enrollment limitations discussed above.
Accordingly, those applicants with less than an overall 2.5
grade point average or less than a 2.7average in calculus and
physics (with calculus) lecture courses will ordinarily not be
admitted. Regardless of the number of openings available,
those applicants with an overall 2.7 grade point average and
with a 3.0 average in both calculus and physics (with calcu-
lus) lecture course ses will ordinarily be admitted. These admis-
sion standards will be lowered if there are more openings
than usual.
Once admitted to the program, an electrical engineering
student shall maintainsatisfactory progress generally C or
better in gll required courses-and an overall grade point av-
erage of 2.0 or higher. In particular, an electrical engineering
student cannot take an electrical engineering course without
having earned a minimum grade of C in the prerequisite
electrical engineering courses.
In addition to the other requirements for a B.S.E.E., a stu-
dent must have at least a 2.0 grade point average in all elec-
trical engineering courses taken, both required and elective.
If a course is repeated, both grades count in this grade point
average.

ENGINEERING SCIENCES
The Department of Engineering Sciences offers bachelor's
degree programs in Aerospace Engineering and in Engineer-
ing Science. At the graduate level it offers programs leading
to master's degrees and the Engineer degree in Aerospace
Engineering, in Engineering Mechanics, and in Engineering
Science. The Doctor of Philosophy degree is offered in Aero-
space Engineering and in Engineering Mechanics, with spe-
cialized tracks in the latter discipline in engineering analysis
and applied mathematics and in theoretical and applied me-
chanics, and coastal and oceanographic engineering.
The department is committed to excellence in both teach-
ing and research. Through active and diverse research pro-
grams, the professional competence of the faculty is main-
tained and both undergraduate and graduate students have
opportunities to participate in exciting programs dealing
with problems at the forefront of science, technology, and
societal needs.
Admission Requirements: The baccalaureate programs,
both in Aerospace Engineering and in Engineering Science,
are selective admission programs. Admission decisions are
made by a faculty committee according to the following
criteria:
1. Students making normal progress toward completion of
pre-engineering prerequisite courses and who have
earned an overall grade point average of 2.7 or higher will
ordinarily be admitted; those with 2.3 and lower will or-
dinarily not be admitted.
2. The admissions committee will consider the following
additional factors in reaching its final decision: per-
formance in calculus, physics, and chemistry courses com-
pleted, and other evidence of motivation .and suitability
for a career in Engineering Science or Aerospace Engineer-
ing, as appropriate, including performance in relevant
work experience.
These criteria are applicable to all students, independent
of the location of their lower division work.
Aerospace Engineering Program: See alphabetical listing
of degree programs under College of Engineering section for
details of the curriculum.


UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAM IN
ENGINEERING SCIENCE
Engineering Science is a fully accredited Engineering de-
gree program providing a broad, strong foundation fouat in math-
ematics, science and engineering, coupled with unusual
flexibility to create individualized, nontraditional, nonio areas of
emphasis or concentration. The program is intended for
good students who wish to design personalized curricula
satisfying special interests and objectives. Commonly, these
students are seeking a program emphasizing:
combinations of conventional disciplines,
Sa particularly broad foundation for graduate study in a
chosen field,
preparation for professional schools such as medicine,
law or management,
new, uncommon or recently significant areas of study
which do not fit well within traditional curricula.
The Engineering Science program accommodates this
wide range of objectives by providing a large selection of
elective courses. Students and their advisors cooperate in
choosing these electives to custom design curricula to fit in-
dividual interests and educational goals. The number of pos-
sible areas of concentration is almost limitless and new con-
centrations are continually being created by students. Re-
cently designed concentrations include:
Applied Mathematics and Computer Science
Applied Physics
Automation and Manufacturing Systems

and well-being through the control of the environment. In-
itially concerned only with water resources and the treat-
ment or protection of drinking water supplies, the field first
became known as Sanitary Engineering. Now, since it em-
braces the broad field of the general environment, including
air, food, shelter, radiological health, transportation and ac-
cident prevention as well as water, the term Environmental
Engineering Sciences is preferred.
During recent years, there has been such an un-
precedented demand for environmental engineers that
there are many more positions open than there are properly
qualified graduates to fill them. It has been estimated that
the number of environmental engineers employed in health
departments alone will have to be more than doubled to
supply the present need. Increasing activities in many appli-
cations of nuclear energy are likewise demanding individ-
uals with special training in environmental control. Hazards
and wastes from research, reactor operation, radiological
procedures and tracer techniques are problems which are
properly the concern of these specialists and require more
qualified persons than are presently available.
Water resources are under constant threat of pollution
from the sewage of an ever expanding population and from
the multitude of new chemicals being developed by our
technological society. Handling and disposing of toxic
wastes has become one of the most critical problems facing
environmental engineers today, and unfortunately, there is a
severe shortage of specialists trained in this field.
The growing importance of atmospheric pollution prob-
lems has led many industries to give increased attention to
this phase of waste disposal. Graduates from Environmental
Engineering Sciences programs are being called upon by in-
dustry to apply their special knowledge in conducting sur-
veys and formulating abatement programs which will not
merely transfer the pollution from the air to other areas of
the environment.
The reasons for this expanding field of opportunity are
due largely to the impact of advancing technology on
modern community living. With each new development
there has been a period of transition during which the pollu-
tion control specialist has been called upon to broaden ac-
tivities to keep pace with progress and new developments in
environmental protection and public health.







COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING


This process of evolution has manifested itself in so many
different aspects of environmental concern that environ-
mental engineering has become one of the broadest and
most challenging of all careers. Advances in technology
create more demands for environmental engineers Every
new manufacturing plant, every new chemical industry, new
improvements in nuclear science and in transportation all
increase the number and magnitude of problems'for these
specialists to solve.
It is becoming increasingly apparent that the environment
cannot be sectionalized, but rather, it must be viewed as one
continuous entity consisting of air, water, land, and people.
This ecological concept has given rise to a new approach to
environmental problems known as environmental systems
management or systems ecology. To function in this area, an
individual needs a broad background, not only in the basic
sciences and engineering but also in medical sciences, law,
economics, and political science. Students in other fields are
encouraged to join with the engineers in this program by
selecting environmental engineering sciences courses and,
when suitable, to undertake master's and doctoral research
at the interface between environmental engineering sci-
ences and their major field.
Historically, degree programs in Environmental Engineer-
ing Sciences have been at the graduate level. However, re-
sponding to the tremendous demand for people trained in
this field, the Department of Environmental Engineering Sci-
ences initiated an undergraduate degree in 1972. The re-
quirements for this degree, Bachelor of Science in Engineer-
ing (Environmental Engineering), are given below. In addi-
tion, the Department of Chemical Engineering, the Depart-
ment of Civil Engineering and the Department of Engineer-
ing Sciences permit their students to pursue technical con-
centration in Environmental Engineering Sciences. This is ac-
complished through the selection of appropriate technical
elective courses taught by the Department of Environmental
Engineering Sciences. Persons with pre-medical interests can
satisfy admission requirements for medical school with this
program and judicious selection of electives. Students from
other departments are also welcome to take courses in Envi-
ronmental Engineering Sciences to the extent allowed by
their backgrounds.
Degree Programs: The Department of Environmental Engi-
neering Sciences offers the following degrees: Bachelor of
Science in Engineering, Master of Engineering, Master of Sci-
ence, the Engineer Degree and Doctor of Philosophy.

INDUSTRIAL AND SYSTEMS
ENGINEERING
Rapid industrial growth has created unusual opportunities
for the industrial and systems engineer. The advent of auto-
mation and the emphasis on increased productivity coupled
with higher levels of systems, sophistication are providing
impetus to the demand for the engineering graduate with a
broad interdisciplinary background.
The industrial engineering option prepares the student for
industrial practice in such areas as product design, process
design, plant operation, production control, quality control,
facilities planning, work system analysis and evaluation, and
economic analysis of operational systems.
The systems engineering option emphasizes the integra-
tion of knowledge and technology from the engineering, bi-
ological, and physical sciences to carry out the processes of
description, analysis, synthesis, and optimization in both the
industrial and non-industrial setting. Furthermore a student
in this area learns to define problems from a broad per-
spective in which the contributions of individual compo-
nents to a total mission are clearly seen.
Students in both options are trained to use engineering
principles in the solution of problems encountered in envi-
ronments and situations where a quantitative basis for de-
cision making is desirable. Such decision making requires
the application of the tools of economics, operations re-
search, statistics, mathematics, and engineering analysis,
with dependence on the computer. The industrial engineer-
ing option equips the student for professional engineering
practice while the systems engineering option further pre-

pares the student to carry out analysis and design of large
scale operations requiring diversified inputs. Both options
provide the training necessary for admission to.graduate
study.
Degree Programs: The Industrial and Systems Engineering
Department offers the following degrees: Bachelor of Sci-
ence in Industrial and Systems Engineering, Master of Engi-
neering, Master of Science, the Engineer Degree, and Doctor
of Philosophy.
Admission Requirements: The Department of Industrial
and Systems Engineering is a "selective admissions depart-
ment." A student should apply one term prior to the com-
pletion of those chemistry, physics, and calculus courses
which are part of the pre-engineering requirements. Stu-
dents with a 2.7 cumulative average as well as a 2.7
cumulative average in physics and calculus are usually as-
sured of admission. Those whose cumulative average and
average of the physics and calculus grades are below 2.4 will
usually be denied admission. In borderline cases grades in
required chemistry, computer programming, and differential
equations courses will also be taken into consideration.
Some students may be admitted on a probationary basis
which requires that they be placed on a "planned program."
Special Grade Requirements: A grade of C or better is to
be earned in each required statistics course and each re-
quired course taught by the Industrial and Systems Engineer-
ing Department in order for that course to count toward
graduation. Students earning less than a C grade in such a
course will be required to repeat the course as soon as pos-
sible. Note that statistics or departmental courses taken as
electives do not fall under this rule.
Departmental Probation Policy: The Department enforces
a probation policy which is more stringent than either that of
the University or the College. A student is automatically
placed on Departmental Probation when his/her Upper
Division Grade Point Deficit equals or exceeds the follow-
ing: 15 for 3EG students, 10 for 4EG students, and 5 for 5EG
students. A student who is on Departmental Probation at the
start of a term of attendance is expected to rectify this condi-
tion at the end of the same term. For additional details, con-
sult the Departmental Office.
Technical Electives: Normally technical elective credit is
restricted to approved courses in engineering, computer sci-
ence, mathematics, and statistics. Provision is also made for
receiving up to three credits for approved industrial em-
ployment, for certain sequence of courses taken as part of
advanced ROTC, and for certain approved business adminis-
tration courses.
