the university
Founded in 1898, Northeastern University is incorporated as a privately endowed, nonsectarian institution of higher learning under the General Laws of Massachusetts. The State Legislature, by special enactment, has given the University general degree-granting powers. The Univer- sity is governed by a Board of Trustees elected by and from the North- eastern University Corporation, which is composed of more than 150 distinguished business and professional men and women.
From its beginning Northeastern University has had as its dominant purpose the discovery of community educational needs and the meet- ing of these in distinctive and serviceable ways. The University has not duplicated the programs of other institutions, but has sought to pioneer new areas of educational service.
A distinctive feature of Northeastern University is its Cooperative Plan, initiated by the College of Engineering in 1909 and subsequently adopted by the Colleges of Business Administration (1922), Liberal Arts (1935), Education (1953), Pharmacy (1962), Nursing (1964), Boston- Bouve College (1964), the College of Criminal Justice (1967), and by Lincoln College's Engineering Technology Programs (1971). As an edu- cational method the Cooperative Plan enables students to gain valu- able practical experience as an integral part of their college programs, and also provides the means by which they may contribute substan- tially to the financing of their education. The Plan has been extended to the graduate level in engineering, mathematics, actuarial science, rehabilitation administration, professional accounting, business admin- istration, and law.
In the field of adult education, programs of study have been developed to meet a variety of needs. Since 1906 evening curricula have been of- fered leading to the bachelor's degree. Programs in the arts and sci- ences, engineering, various fields of business, law enforcement and security, and other areas have been carefully planned to serve mature students who are employed full-time during the day and want to broaden their educational background by part-time study. All formal courses of study leading to degrees through evening programs are approved by the Basic College faculties concerned and are subject to the same quantitative and qualitative standards as the regular day cur- ricula.
THE UNIVERSITY / 19
UNDERGRADUATE COLLEGES
Boston-Bouve College
Boston-Bouve College offers four major programs of study: physical education, recreation education, and health education, all leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education; and physical therapy, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Physical Therapy.
The combined programs of liberal arts, science, and professional prep- aration include field experience and student teaching, and leadership training in camping and outdoor education at the Warren Center for Physical Education and Recreation in Ashland. In accordance with Northeastern's Cooperative Plan of Education, students are offered varied opportunities for alternate terms of work-study experience dur- ing upperclass years.
The College of Business Administration
The College of Business Administration offers programs of study in the principal fields of business leading to the degree of Bachelor of Sci- ence in Business Administration. These programs are offered on the five-year Cooperative Plan, under which students gain substantial practical experience in the fields for which they are preparing as an integral part of their undergraduate course of study.
The College also sponsors a Management Institute which offers vari- ous special courses for business and industrial executives. One phase of the Institute's work is carried on by the Center for Management De- velopment, which annually conducts an intensive program designed to provide professional growth for middle-management executives who will ultimately be called upon to carry broader executive responsibil- ities. The plan of instruction, based on a modification of the North- eastern Cooperative Program, permits the participants to maintain their job responsibilities during the six-month period of the course. The Management Development Program is conducted at Andover, Massachusetts, on the campus of Andover Academy.
College of Criminal Justice
The College of Criminal Justice offers full-time day curricula on the Cooperative Plan leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science.
The College of Education
The College of Education offers programs leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education. These are particularly designed to meet the needs of high school graduates who desire to prepare them-
20 / THE UNIVERSITY
selves for teaching or administrative positions in elementary and sec- ondary schools. Curricula are offered on the five-year Cooperative Plan, which provides for employment in libraries, social service agen- cies, and school systems.
College of Engineering
The College of Engineering offers five-year cooperative curricula in civil, mechanical, electrical, chemical, and industrial engineering lead- ing to the degree of Bachelor of Science with specification according to the engineering department in which the student qualifies. The Col- lege also offers a general engineering program, awarding an unspeci- fied Bachelor of Science degree, in which the student has the oppor- tunity to design his own program with his career objectives in mind. A six-year program in power systems engineering in collaboration with public utilities leads to both the bachelor's and master's degree in electrical engineering. During evening hours part-time programs lead- ing to the Bachelor of Science degrees in Electrical Engineering and Civil Engineering are conducted. These programs extend over eight years, cover the identical courses given in the day cooperative cur- riculum, and meet the same qualitative and quantitative standards of scholarship.
College of Liberal Arts
The College of Liberal Arts offers majors in the arts and sciences lead- ing to the degree of Bachelor of Arts. With the exception of preprofes- sional programs, curricula are normally five years in length and oper- ate on the Cooperative Plan.
Lincoln College
Lincoln College offers engineering technology programs leading to the Associate in Engineering, the Associate in Science, and the Bachelor of Engineering Technology degrees. These programs are made avail- able as:
(a) A full-time day curricula on the Cooperative Plan leading to the degree of Bachelor of Engineering Technology (B.E.T.) in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering.
(b) A part-time evening program including pretechnology prepara- tory courses and degree programs leading to the Associate in Engineering (A.E.); and the Bachelor of Engineering Technol- ogy (B.E.T.) in Civil, Mechanical, or Electrical Engineering. The Associate in Science degree may be earned in the Mathe- matical, Physical, and Chemical Sciences.
THE UNIVERSITY / 21
(c) Lincoln College part-time students whose work schedule does not permit them to attend regular evening classes may register for a maximum of 8 quarter hours of course work per quarter in the Lincoln College Day Program.
Registration materials will be available Monday through Friday in Room 219 Hayden Hall, Boston Campus only, during the week preced- ing the start of each quarter. The day class schedule will not be avail- able at other campus locations. The Registrar will not accept registra- tion materials for day classes without the approval of the Director of Lincoln College. Tuition will be billed at normal evening part-time rates.
Interested students should consult course listing (page 164) to deter- mine equivalent day courses.
The day B.E.T. program is designed to meet the needs of the high school graduate or the student transferring from a community college or technical institute and who desires the full-time day curricula on the Northeastern Cooperative Plan.
In addition to its traditional curricula, Lincoln College Evening School offers interdisciplinary and certificate programs providing technologi- cal and professional development opportunities to meet special needs of the part-time student. These programs are designed to provide trained people for ready assimilation by the engineering field and to prepare students for the challenge of interfacing technology and so- ciety.
Recognizing the increasing need for higher levels of technical effi- ciency in fire investigation, fire prevention, and fire protection, Lincoln College, in collaboration with local firefighting agencies, has designed a part-time evening program leading to an Associate in Science degree in Fire Technology. The curriculum includes a broad spectrum of those science technologies which are basic in coping with the firefighting problems attendant to the complexities of today's society.
College of Nursing
The College of Nursing offers two separate and distinct programs of study, both organized on the Cooperative Plan:
(a) A three-year curriculum in preparation for the R.N. Examinations leading to the Associate in Science degree.
(b) A five-year curriculum also preparing students for the R.N. Ex- aminations, and leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
22 / THE UNIVERSITY
Five of Boston's leading hospitals — Beth Israel, Children's Hospital Medical Center, New England Deaconess, Peter Bent Brigham, and Massachusetts General — collaborate with Northeastern by providing suitable cooperative work opportunities during the upperclass years of these programs.
College of Pharmacy and Allied Health Professions
The College of Pharmacy and Allied Health Professions offers five-year cooperative curricula leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy, and to the Bachelor of Science degree with majors in med- ical laboratory science (medical technology, cytotechnology, hematol- ogy), medical record administration, and management in health care agencies and institutions. Associate degree programs are offered in medical laboratory science, respiratory therapy, dental hygiene, and cytotechnology The College has academic responsibility and, in coop- eration with the medical schools and teaching hospitals in the Boston area, offers the professional program for physician assistants.
University College
University College, so called because it draws upon the resources of the other colleges of the University, offers part-time programs in Lib- eral Arts, Business Administration, Law Enforcement, Education, and Health, leading to the Associate in Science, Bachelor of Arts, and Bachelor of Science degrees. It does not duplicate the offerings of the day college, but provides curricula which cut across traditional subject- matter areas to meet the particular needs of adult students. Students may pursue a degree or simply take courses, based on needs and in- terests, up to a total of forty quarter hours of credit. Courses are of- fered in Boston as well as at Boxford, Burlington, Framingham, Lynn, Haverhill, Milford, Weymouth, and several other convenient locations.

the role and scope of lincoln college
Purpose
Lincoln College is charged with the responsibility for developing and offering college-level courses and curricula of an applied-science or technological nature. Its purpose is to assist professional personnel, qualified to deal with the applications and uses of the biological, nat- ural, and physical sciences, in better meeting community needs. The programs of study conducted by the College have in common the following purposes and characteristics:
1. The programs of instruction prepare the graduate for activities allied to the fields of engineering, science, or medicine, but are more specialized than those required to prepare a person for full professional responsibilities.
2. The programs of instruction are more concise and more com- pletely technological in content than professional curricula, though they are concerned with the same general fields of scien- tific, engineering, industrial, or clinical specialization.
3. The programs of instruction are based upon principles of sci- ence, and include post-secondary-school mathematics to pro- vide the tools to achieve the technological objectives of the curricula.
4. Emphasis is placed upon the use of rational processes in con- verting theories and ideas into practical techniques, procedures, and products.
5. Extensive training for artisanship or craftsmanship is not in- cluded within the scope of the technological education pro- grams.
6. Graduates from the associate degree programs have opportuni- ties for educational work leading to the Bachelor of Engineering Technology and Bachelor of Science degrees.
33
34 / THE ROLE AND SCOPE OF LINCOLN COLLEGE
Technology and the Technologist
Scientific and technological skills range over a broad spectrum, from extremely simple craftsmanlike activity to highly complex and abstract activity. At one end of the spectrum is the professional whose work is mostly theoretical in character. He studies, reasons, and visualizes how new knowledge may be used in the development of solutions to technical problems. Usually he is not completely knowledgeable of the detailed procedures used by the skilled craftsman who executes the ideas, procedures, and designs.
The technologist is the pivot-man on the professional-technologist- craftsman team. He works with the professional engineer, scientist, doctor, supervisor, and craftsman in converting knowledge of scientific theories and practical craftsmanship into products, procedures, and techniques. His responsibilities are technologically important — profes- sional opportunities are limited only by ambition, ability, and education.
When employed in research, design, or development, the technologist usually acts as direct supporting personnel to the professionals. If he functions in a capacity related to production, operation, testing, or control, he usually follows a course prescribed by a professional but may not work closely under his direction. If installation, maintenance, or sales are his areas of responsibility, he is frequently performing a task that would otherwise have to be performed by the professional. He thereby assumes the more routine professional functions demanded by our increasingly scientific and technical society.
In executing his functions, the technologist is required to use a high degree of rational thinking, to employ post-secondary school mathe- matics and the principles of the biological, natural, and physical sci- ences. The skilled technologist works with his mind as well as his hands. He considers why, as well as how things work. To perform his functions efficiently, the technologist must effectively communicate technical and scientific information mathematically, graphically, and linguistically.
The Need for Technologists
Our present technological age, with its exploding accumulation of new information and discoveries in the physical, natural, and life sciences, has increased the need for people with specialized training in science and technology. Experts have recently estimated that in order to meet expanding needs, the number of students graduating from the nation's professional schools must double — a goal which is improbable in the near future. ,
THE ROLE AND SCOPE OF LINCOLN COLLEGE / 35
The most reasonable alternative is to make our professional manpower most efficient by providing assistance in the form of specially trained technologists. Manpower experts believe that the present ratio of less than one technologist to each professional should ideally be nearer five to one.
Opportunities for technologists are increasing at a faster rate than for any other occupational group — a 50 percent increase is expected in the next five years. More than 200,000 technologists will be needed each year; schools now graduate only 50,000 per year. The technolo- gist's employment opportunities are varied and much demanded in health and public service organizations; atomic energy and electric power industries; metal fabricating industries; local, state, and federal government agencies; the armed forces; aerospace industries; chemi- cal, petroleum, plastics, and metal industries; as well as transportation and communication industries.
PROGRAMS OF INSTRUCTION
Recognizing the growing need for technicians and technologists and their expanding role in modern society, Lincoln College offers Pre- Technology Preparatory Courses and degree programs leading to the Associate in Engineering (A.E.); Associate in Science (A.S.); and Bachelor of Engineering Technology (B.E.T.) as follows:

Part-time Electrical, Civil, and Mechanical Engineering Programs (B.S. degree)
These programs are designed for fully qualified young men and women who:
1. because of family responsibilities must continue to be gainfully employed full time during the day, but who wish to advance by devoting leisure time to their own professional development;
2. were in the top half of their high school class, but at graduation were financially unable to continue their education at the col- lege level; those who did not enjoy top-half standing may re- quire refresher study;
3. realize that the most effective way to achieve their full potential in these days of specialization is to earn a college degree.
All of the courses in these part-time curricula are identical with those
THE ROLE AND SCOPE OF LINCOLN COLLEGE / 37
offered in the five-year, day cooperative programs and are taught by the same faculty.
The University reserves the right to withdraw, modify, or add to the courses offered or to change the order or content of courses in any curriculum.

ADMISSION
The Student Body
The student body of Lincoln College is composed of recent high school graduates and mature men and women. Most students are em- ployed in industry, with vocational experience ranging from very little for the recent secondary school graduate, to as much as twenty or thirty years for individuals seeking increased professional responsibil- ity and status. Many technical career categories are represented — industrial, engineering, scientific, and allied-medical — demonstrating that, in our increasingly complex society, the key to personal advance- ment is education.
Academic Background
A firm knowledge of the fundamentals of mathematics and science is the foundation upon which successful achievements in the more ad- vanced technological courses are built.
Applicants to Lincoln College are, in many cases, mature adults who, although they have experience in industry or previous education, have been away from formal study for some time and, therefore, have doubts concerning their study habits and their algebra, geometry, and science proficiency. Those who anticipate some difficulty in adjusting to the first-year course requirements are advised to give very serious consideration to enrolling in non-credit courses in introductory mathe- matics, introductory physics, and/or introductory chemistry. These courses are designed to develop adequate background for the basic courses in the degree programs.
i Program Counseling
Career planning through self-analysis and professional counseling as- sists students in planning educational programs appropriate to their objectives. Entering students are encouraged to arrange for personal interviews with Lincoln College program counselors for assistance in .planning their academic programs. Counselors are available by ap- pointment at the Huntington Avenue Campus, Boston; the Suburban Campus, Burlington; the North High School, Framingham; the Wey-
41
42 / ADMISSIONS INFORMATION

In addition, the test is administered during the summer months. Contact the Lincoln College Office, 219 Hayden Hall, at the Boston Campus (437-2500).
Students who demonstrate satisfactory proficiency in the test will be permitted to register for the first-year courses in the program of their
ADMISSIONS INFORMATION / 43
choice. To enroll in Engineering Physics (11.317) the student may need to take Introductory Physics.
If need for a strengthening of mathematical background is indicated, the applicant will be assigned to the Introductory Mathematics course.
Students enrolling in Introductory Mathematics may fill out their sched- ule by enrolling in Introductory Physics, Introductory Chemistry, or Engineering Graphics.
In every case the student should carefully consider his combined work and study load and register for only those courses which contribute to the development of a firm knowledge of fundamentals and which en- able him to adjust to academic study requirements.
CLASSIFICATION OF STUDENTS
Applicants who have filed an Application for Admission and who are approved by the Lincoln College Academic Standing Committee are admitted as regular degree candidate students in the program which they have indicated on the application.
Special Students
Students having specific course needs, who do not desire a degree, may register for the courses if they have the required prerequisites or their equivalent. These students will be enrolled as "special students."
Matriculation
Degree candidates must file a petition for matriculation when they have completed a minimum of forty quarter-hours of work in Lincoln Col- lege, for a review of their academic record and to insure that:
1. The student is entered in the permanent record as a degree can- didate in the program of his choice;
2. Advanced standing credit for transfer students is entered in their permanent record.
This review will assure that the student has:
1. Attained a satisfactory quality point average;
2. Presented evidence of completion of an accredited secondary school program by submission of a transcript of record or a high school equivalency certificate;
44 / ADMISSIONS INFORMATION
3. Demonstrated acceptable levels of ability and achievement in 15 units* of secondary school and/or collegiate work as follows:

4. The Academic Standing Committee may require a student to take one or more aptitude or interest tests if his credentials or academic record fail to completely satisfy the criteria for prob- able academic success. These tests will be administered by the University Counseling and Testing Center. A fee is charged for these tests.
TRANSFER STUDENTS AND ADVANCED STANDING CREDITS
Students transferring from community colleges, junior colleges, tech- nical institutes, or other colleges and universities may transfer appli- cable credits toward the degree requirements of Lincoln College.
Students admitted with transfer or advanced standing credits from an- other institution must meet the requirements for admission as set forth under the regulations applicable to regular students. Advanced stand- ing in Lincoln College may be obtained by (1) transfer of credits or (2) proficiency examination.
Transfer of Credits
Subject to the approval of the Academic Standing Committee, credits may be awarded for academic work completed in other approved schools, colleges, or universities if the following criteria are met: (a) the content of the course being submitted is equivalent to that of the corresponding course in Lincoln College; (b) the average grade achieved in the course submitted is "C" or higher; and (c) the remote- ness of the time of study does not negate its use as a prerequisite for an advanced course.
Applicants desiring advanced standing credit by transfer should indi- cate this desire at the time of filing the application for admission. The applicant should request the Registrar of the institutions of previous attendance to mail an official transcript to the Lincoln College Office.
Proficiency Examinations
Applicants who do not meet all the criteria for the normal transfer of
*A unit represents a year's work in a subject at an approved secondary school, community college, junior college, technical institute, or university.
ADMISSIONS INFORMATION / 45
credits, but who are able to supply evidence of sufficient knowledge of a subject as a result of previous training or experience, may petition the Academic Standing Committee for the privilege of taking a Pro- ficiency Examination. If satisfactory proficiency is indicated by the ex- amination, advanced standing credits may be awarded or a substitute course may be recommended.
Readmission
Former students who seek readmission to continue a program of study after having withdrawn from the College for a period of time, may be required to repeat courses which are prerequisites to advanced work.
REGISTRATION Registration for Courses
Completion of admission requirements does not constitute official reg- istration for courses. All students must be properly registered before attending classes. Registrations are processed by the Registrar's Of- fice during the official registration periods. Former students should ascertain completion of prerequisite courses before registration. Stu- dents may register for full-year sequences of courses during the offi- cial registration periods. They are urged to register as early as pos- sible in order to obtain the desired class schedule.
Changes in Registration
Changes in program should be initiated before the opening day of classes during the official registration periods.
Official Registration Periods
Official registration periods are scheduled before the Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer Quarters during the academic year. Students are urged to register as early as possible during these periods. Dates of registration periods for each quarter are listed in the official 1975-1977 Academic Calendar (see pages 6 and 7).
Withdrawal
Simply ceasing to attend classes or notifying the instructor does not constitute official withdrawal from a course. To withdraw officially from a course, the student must notify the Registrar's Office in writing or complete the appropriate withdrawal form. Properly registered stu- dents who do not attend one of the first three sessions in any course will be automatically withdrawn from the class roll.
Courses in Other Departments of the University
Lincoln College students assigned to courses in other departments of the University are charged the tuition rates and other fees effective in the departments in which they are enrolled.

ACADEMIC INFORMATION / 47
Course Work
All the usual methods of instruction are employed — lectures, home assignments, class projects, laboratory work, irregularly scheduled quizzes, and formal examinations. In addition, mid-course examina- tions are scheduled in most courses and a final examination is re- quired at the completion of all courses. Students are responsible for fulfilling all the requirements of a course. In the event of absence, stu- dents must make appropriate arrangements for makeup with the in- structor. Students must follow the procedures outlined below for makeup of missed mid-term or final examinations.
Student Study Areas
The UNIVERSITY LIBRARY is well equipped with technical literature. A detailed statement about its facilities and hours appears on pages 27-29.
The privilege of obtaining books from the Boston Public Library is ex- tended to students of Lincoln College. Application for this privilege, which involves a fee, should be made directly to the Boston Public Library.
Additional study areas are available in the Ell Student Center Building.
Attendance
Students absent from regularly scheduled sessions in any subject, for whatever reason, may seriously jeopardize their academic progress and status. Students are expected to be in attendance at all the ses- sions scheduled in their courses. Excessive absence may be sufficient cause for the Registrar to remove the subject(s) from the student's schedule.
Withdrawal
Simply ceasing to attend classes or notifying the instructor does not constitute official withdrawal from a course. To withdraw officially from a course, the student must notify the Registrar's Office or complete the appropriate withdrawal form.
The Registrar will withdraw the student from a course who:
1. Does not attend one of the first three classes at the beginning of a twelve-week quarter;
2. Does not attend one of the first two classes at the beginning of a summer term.
48 / ACADEMIC INFORMATION
MAKEUP EXAMINATIONS
Mid-course Examinations
A student absent from a regularly scheduled mid-course examination or quiz may request permission to take a makeup examination. This is a privilege which may be denied if abused by an excessive number of petitions or for other reasons.
Students applying for makeup examinations must:
1. Request from the instructor permission to take the mid-term ex- amination or quiz;
2. The instructor will forward the examination to the Lincoln Col- lege Office for processing.
Makeup mid-term examinations and quizzes will be given on a Satur- day at 9:00 a.m. in a designated room at the Huntington Avenue Cam- pus according to the published schedule. Contact the Lincoln College Office, 219 Hayden Hall (Telephone 437-2500).
Any student who does not take the makeup examination as scheduled will forfeit the makeup privilege.
Missed Final Examinations
If a student is absent from a final examination, he will receive a grade of "I" (Incomplete) in the course. He may petition for a makeup final examination at the Registrar's Office, 120 Hayden Hall.
A student does not automatically have the right to make up a missed final examination. Students must petition for this privilege. If the peti- tion is granted, the student must pay a $5.00 fee for taking the special final examination. Petitions may be obtained from the Registrar's Of- fice or in each off-campus Administration Office. Petitions for missed finals must be filed in accordance with the published schedule. Con- tact the Lincoln College Office, 219 Hayden Hall (Telephone 437-2500).

tative credit requirements of his program of study to satisfy academic progress criteria and achieve graduation from Lincoln College.
Grading System
The following system of grading is used. The numerical equivalent for each grade is in parentheses.
Audit (No Credit) — Satisfactory (Pass-Fail grade) — Unsatisfactory (Pass-Fail grade) — Incomplete (Pass-Fail grade) Grade not received
A general average of "D" is unacceptable and will not allow a student to continue in Lincoln College or to receive a degree from Northeast- ern University. The "F" grade is a definite failure. The standard proce- dure for clearing failures in courses offered in Lincoln College is to repeat the course. In some instances circumstances may warrant amending the standard procedure. These circumstances are described in the Student Handbook for day students. An "I" or "X" (incomplete) grade is used for a temporary grade to show that the student has not completed the course requirements.
Pass-Fail Courses
Any student who is not on academic probation and who has com- pleted forty quarter hours of academic work may register for one pass/fail course and, thereafter, for one course on a pass/fail basis for each ten quarter hours of successfully completed work. Written per- mission of the appropriate academic dean must be obtained for each pass/fail course. At no time may a student register for more than one pass/fail course per quarter.
Such courses will be restricted to free electives outside the major field of specialization, so that no part of the specifically prescribed cur- ricula will be affected.
The grades recorded on the basis of the pass/fail system of grading will not figure in the computation of the QPA.
Auditing Policy
Students are permitted to audit courses upon filing the usual registra- tion forms and paying the regular tuition fees. There is no reduction in fees for auditing. An auditor may participate in class discussion,
50 / ACADEMIC INFORMATION
complete papers and projects and take tests and examinations for in- formal evaluation, if desired. However, regardless of the amount or quality of work completed, no academic credit will be granted at any time for courses audited.
Audit Procedure
The student's decision to take a course on an audit basis must be communicated in writing to the Registrar prior to the fourth class meeting of the course. No exception to this procedure can be ap- proved without authorization by the Academic Standing Committee of the College.
Grade Reports
Grades are mailed to the student by the Registrar and will not be given out at the office of either the Registrar or Lincoln College. Under no circumstances will grades be given over the telephone.
Quality-Point Average
The quality points earned by the student in a given course are deter- mined on the basis of the letter grade achieved and the number of credit hours carried by the course. The total quality points earned, divided by the total number of credit hours, constitute the quality-point average.
1. When the student has more than one grade in the same course, the most recent grade will be used in the calculation of the quality-point average.
2. A grade of "I" will not be considered in the calculation of the final quality-point average.
3. Although advanced standing credits (ASC) allowed for accept- able work completed at other institutions by transfer students count toward completion of the quantitative credit requirements, neither the credits nor the grades earned in such courses are included in quality-point average computations.
4. In programs made up of combined University College and Lin- coln College courses, the cumulative quality-point average will include all work in both colleges.
For example, a student who has registered for seven courses, cleared a failure in one of them and received advanced standing credit (ASC) in another, may calculate his quality-point average as follows:

The Registrar's Office will not be able to recalculate or confirm the calculations of quality-point averages for individual students. Each stu- dent's record will be brought up to date before his graduation. In the meantime, borderline cases will be checked by the Lincoln College Academic Standing Committee.
Academic Progress Criteria
It is expected that the student will at all times endeavor to achieve a high record of achievement. The Academic Standing Committee re- serves the right to review all students' records and deny readmission to those who fall below a minimum quality level of achievement. This requirement has been established as follows:
In order to be allowed to remain in the College, a student must have achieved a quality-point average of 1.4 at the completion of 24 quarter hours; 1.5 at the end of 48 quarter hours; and 1.6 at the end of 72 quar- ter hours.
It should be further noted that a student who accumulates the equiva- lent of six uncleared failures may be considered ineligible to continue his program of study.
Scholastic Probation
The Academic Standing Committee has the authority to dismiss from the College or place on scholastic probation any student whose schol- arship is deficient for the following reasons: low quality-point average, excessive outstanding failures regardless of quality-point average.
A student on scholastic probation should be particularly diligent in his current courses and make every effort to clear his academic defi-
52 / ACADEMIC INFORMATION
ciencies as soon as possible. Students whose academic record does not improve or whose failures are not properly cleared may not be al- lowed to register for further courses.
When a student on scholastic probation has cleared all or a substan- tial part of his outstanding failures he may petition the Academic Standing Committee for removal from the probation list.
Disciplinary Probation
The Academic Standing Committee has the authority to dismiss from the College or place on disciplinary probation any student whom it may deem unworthy because of conduct or character. The Committee may ask any student to withdraw from the College who is obviously out of sympathy with its aims and ideals.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
To receive the degree of Associate in Engineering, Associate in Sci- ence, or Bachelor of Engineering Technology, the student must fulfill the following requirements:
1. Must have been formally accepted into "degree candidate" status by the Committee on Admissions;
2. Complete all the courses of his particular curriculum, either by attendance at Lincoln College or by receiving Advanced Stand- ing Credit;
3. Complete associate degree programs in eight years and bach- elor's programs in twelve years from the date of entrance into Lincoln College. Extensions of time may be granted by the Academic Standing Committee;
4. Be in attendance for at least a year preceding the date on which he expects to graduate; and he must complete at least one-fourth of his work in Lincoln College;
5. Achieve a quality-point average of at least 1.75 in courses taken in the College to be awarded the Associate in Engineering or Associate in Science degrees, and 1.80 for the Bachelor of En- gineering Technology degree;
6. Pay the Graduation Fee of $25. In addition, students:
7. May not earn two associate degrees or two bachelor's degrees in the same field of academic specialization;

Alumni Relations
The Alumni Association is providing a uniquely valuable service to both the University and the community by sponsoring admissions con- ferences for parents of high school students who are interested in attending college. These meetings, held in cooperation with the North- eastern Department of Admissions, have been extremely well attended. Local residents as well as alumni of the University have been invited to these conferences, which help to clarify many of the questions to- day's parents and young people have concerning application pro- cedures of colleges and universities.
Placement Service
Many requests from employers are received by the College, for men and women of potential ability to fill important positions of responsi- bility. It is the policy of the College to serve the students whenever
66 / STUDENT ACTIVITIES AND ALUMNI INFORMATION
possible by placing them in those positions which promise attractive opportunities for development and advancement. The College, however, cannot guarantee to place its students, but it does endeavor to keep in close touch with those who desire placement service and to assist them in obtaining satisfactory advancements in positions and income. No charge is made for placement service. Those needing this assis- tance should arrange an appointment with the Director of Placement.
While the College cannot guarantee positions to its graduates, the number of requests usually exceeds the number available in the grad- uating class of any given year. The policy of the College is to find the best qualified men and women among its graduates for the positions which the College is called upon to fill.
The College, in recommending a graduate for a position, furnishes the prospective employer with the facts as to the graduate's ability, char- acter, attitudes, habits, and other qualifications for the position as revealed by the College records. In the last analysis, however, place- ment in a position depends largely upon the graduate's ability to sell his services to the prospective employer. Most employers prefer to consider two or more candidates for a position and generally request the College to suggest more than one person. Many manufacturing and commercial firms throughout New England call upon the College to assist them in filling important executive and managerial positions.

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMS
Mechanical Engineering deals with the harnessing of power resources by means of machinery to perform useful work. In contrast to civil en- gineering, which deals primarily with static forces and structures, mechanical engineering is more concerned with the motion and ki- netics of devices which are activated by hydraulic, electrical, mechan- ical, or thermodynamic forces. Major functions of the mechanical en- gineer are: 1) design and installation of all kinds of machinery from pocket watches to the largest of steel boring mills; 2) development and production of engines and transportation equipment (automobile, air- craft, ship, railway, etc.); 3) construction and operation of furnaces, boilers, and heating and air-conditioning equipment for the control of atmospheric and environmental conditions.
Employment opportunities for Mechanical Engineering Technology graduates are in the areas of 1) research, design, or development; 2) production, operation, testing, or control; 3) installation, maintenance, and sales. In performing these functions, graduates will work in close association with professionals in the field and may develop techno- logically so as to function independently and in positions of mana- gerial responsibility.

INTERDISCIPLINARY ENGINEERING AND SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMS
These programs offered by Lincoln College present a variety of inter- disciplinary combinations of the Engineering Technology Programs and the Science Programs (chemistry, physics, and mathematics). They have been developed to meet the need for technologists in the areas of ecology, bioelectronic devices, computer systems, and other technological applications requiring an expertise in several of the academic disciplines.
This demand for multi-skilled technologists reflects the increased re- liance of society on the science and engineering technologist to help solve its growth problems. Opportunities are also developing in highly interdisciplinary fields such as ocean engineering, bioengineering, environmental science, and public health.
The programs are designed to prepare the student to meet the charge of interfacing technology and society. The engineering technology stu- dent not only learns about the disciplines that are related to his ex- pertise but he also becomes oriented in the disciplines to which his technological skills will be applied. A program of concentrated study in chemistry and physics or mathematics and physics is offered to the science technology student.
Lincoln College also offers an Associate in Science Degree Program in Fire Technology which provides a broad spectrum of those science technologies which are basic in coping with fire-fighting problems at- tendant to the complexities of today's society.

description of
On the pages which follow is a numerical and descriptive listing of courses offered in the several curricula of Lincoln College. Although not all courses are offered every year, all will be offered during the normal period of each student's curriculum. The term "prerequisite" indicates a course that must be taken before undertaking the advanced course to which it applies.
A "quarter hour" equals approximately three clock hours of work (ordi- narily, one hour of class and two hours of preparation a week for a quarter of 12 weeks' duration). Laboratory and drawing courses nor- mally require fewer hours of outside preparation and therefore carry less credit than lecture courses.
Abbreviations
prereq. — prerequisite lab. — laboratory hours
coreq. — corequisite q.h. — quarter hours
cl. — class hours
Policy on Changes of Program
Lincoln College reserves the right to cancel, modify, or add to the courses offered or to change the order or content of courses in any curriculum.
The University further reserves the right to change the requirements for graduation, tuition, and fees charged, and other regulations. How- ever, no change in tuition and fees at any time shall become effective until the school year following that in which it is announced.
Any changes which may be made from time to time relative to the above policy shall be applicable to all students in the school, college, or department concerned, including former students who may re-enroll.
