HISTORY

Pacific Lutheran University was founded in 1890 by leaders of the Lutheran Church in the Northwest, and by Rev. Bjug Harstad in particular. Their purpose was to establish an institution in which their people could be e d u ca ted. Educati on was a venerated component of the Scandinavian and German traditions from which these pioneers came.

The institution opened as an academy and became a junior college in 1921. Ten ye4rs later, it was organized into a three-year normal school which became a college of education in 1939. In 1941, still a small and struggling institution, it assumed the necessary role of a college of liberal arts. It was known as Pacific Lutheran College until 1960 when, because of organizational restructuring, it became Pacific Lutheran University.

This brief sketch is recounted because it represents a thoughtful and progressive evolution. A great university is simply not b r o ug ht i nto e xistence overnight. The University began the century as an academy with an enrollment of 30 students. Today our 3,500 enrolled students may select programs from the College of Arts and Sciences, from Schools of Business Administration, Education, Fine Arts, Physical Education, and Nursing, or from the Division of Graduate Studies. As the child is father of the man, so the ideals and perseverance of those who precede us weave an historical fabric of which we can be justifiably proud.

The fact that a university has worthy historical roots does not, of course, insure academic excellence. A reputation of excellence is not a function of longevity, but rather one which must be renewed each year through ongoing preparation and discipline. This is perhaps the greatest legacy these pioneers left us in their example of the faith and hope of education and the University.

Perspec tive/ Academ ic Openness

If it is true, as H.G. Wells wrote, that "human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe," it then follows that the content of education is of critical importance. For this reason, curriculum review and attendant commitment to academic excellence is fundamental to Pacific Lutheran's educational philosophy.

Academic matters are characterized by practical innovation and openness. Because the world is a stream of constantly accelera ting events, today's student must be educated in the dynamics of change. The University encourages students to cope with reality, to concentrate their energies on exploring possibilities for survival, for themselves and for mankind.

In 1969, following a University-wide review of instructional objectives and practices, the University adopted a new calendar. Commonly called the 4-1-4, the current calendar comprises two fourteen-week semesters separated by a four-week interim. Typically, a graduate student enrolls in three courses each semester and in only one course during the interim. Part-time graduate students typically enroll in one course each semester.

The interim month deserves particular attention because of its inherent openness and intensity. The interim calendar is aimed at achieving freedom for the individual. Students are able to concentrate on one course and thus achieve greater depth and competence. Interim offers students and faculty the opportunity to make a clean break with academic ritual. Students are free to develop and explore personal interests, and faculty teach in areas and ways not ava ilable during the regular semester. The options are various: innovative seminars, foreign studies in Central America, Europe, and Asia, interdepartmental offerings, area off-campus studies, and exchange programs with other interim institutions.

Wi t h f r e e d o m , h o w e ver, c o mes responsibility. The faculty has committed itself to imaginative oncepts and has accepted the challenge to keep courses responsive and open-ended. Consequently, interim offerings are experimental and students are expected to invest more in the courses than is simply required.

" Wonders are many, but none­None is more wond'rous

Than man.'" Aes hy/us

A liberal arts curriculum, by definition, is dependent 1I pon the integration of a variety of viable, legitimate perspectives. If a curriculum is open to creativity, solid in substance, diverse yet disciplined, then the faculty must be equal to the challenge.

The Pacific Lutheran faculty is balanced. Its composition includes energetic graduates and seasoned veterans, men and women of various a c a d e m i c i nt erests and equally diverse philosophical persuasions, representing ethnic and cultural backgrounds from Europe to the Orient. In concert, the faculty represents an infinite potential for learning relationships.

The academic pedigrees of our faculty are listed in the University Catalog for your information. For the uninitiated, th data reveal only that our 190 fUll-time and 62 part-time teachers possess credentials 11' m universities around the world. No mention is made of their publications, professional articles scholarly research, concert performances or art exhibitions. The listing does not explain why graduates of Princeton, Columbia, Michigan, Chicago, Stanford, Cambridge, Harvard and so on, would dedicate themselves to a small, Northwestern liberal arts university. Blit they do.

An institution's total environment provirles considerable rationale for the quality of teachers it attracts. You may be interested in a f e w of t h o s e e n vironment al factors opportunities for an interdisciplinary approach to higher education; the respect that exists between schools and departments; the creative potential of the course system and interim calendar; a library with better than adequate holdings; the encouragement and recognition accorded professional, scholarly studies; the excellent facilities; the latitude given those who initiate innovative programs; and the evident Christian commitment to educating stuc1ents for service.

Finally, each teacher derives satisfaction from knowing students on a first-name basis. P a c i f i c Lu t h e r a n University is not a

megaversity. A professor at PLU shares in the resolution of student problems on a one-to-one basis.

Profile/The Academic Program

Each graduate degree candidate is expected to complete a minimum of 32 semester hours with an overall grade point of 3.00. Each candi date must similarly announce and complete a major, detailed requirements for which are separately specified in the section of this catalog entitled Master's Degree Programs. Programs which require more than 32 semester hours of credit are clearly specified in this section also.

Requirements for degrees are specificallv stated in this Bulletin. Prospective students shOUld become familiar with these requirements and prepare to meet them. In the final analysis, of course, each student's success is the product of his own initiative.

The University's academic structure is comprised of these major instructional units: the College of Arts and Sciences, with Divisions of Humanities, Natural Sciences and Social Sciences; School of Business Administrafon; School of Education; School of Fine Arts; S c h ool of Nursing; School of Physical Education; and Division of Graduate Studies. The academic structure, including departmental breakdown, is as shown:

SUMM ER SCHOOL

Pacific lutheran University schedules two summer terms, each of four and one-half weeks' duration. A full offering of courses is available including both evening and day courses. The summer school is typically a time when experimental courses are readily available. Although enrollment is somewhat less than during the academic year, it is still sufficient to provide a wide variety of students, resident faculty, and visiting faculty. Graduate students may enroll for a maximum of 6 semester hours p r term.

ACCREDIT A TION/I NSTITUTIONAL MEMBERSHIP

P a c i fic L u theran University is fully accredited by the Northwest Association of Secondary and Higher Schools as a four-year institution of higher education and by the Washington State Board of Education for teacher education. The University is accredited by the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education for the preparation of elementary and secondary teachers, school administration and counseling and guidance with the master's degree as the highest degree approved. The School of NUrsing is accredited by the National League for Nursing, and the School of Business Administration is accredited in both B.B.A. and M.B.A. degrees by the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business. The University is approved by the American Association of University Women and by the American Chemical Society.

The University is a member of the Asso ci at i o n of American Colleges, the American Council on Education, the National l u th era n E du ca t i ona I Conference, the Northwest Association of Private Colleges and Universities, the I ndependent Colleges of Wa shington, the Western Association of Graduate Schools, the National Association of Summer Schools, and Washington Friends of Higher Education.

STUDENT BODY

Approximately 5,000 students will be served by the University during the current school year and summer session. Full-time enrollment each semester is about 2,700. Graduate enrollment usually consists of 600 to 700 part-time and 50 to 60 full-time graduate students. While the majority of the students come from the state of Washington, over 40 states and several foreign countries are represented. Regarding religiolls affiliation, approximately 50% of the student body is of the lutheran faith. The other half represents n ea r I y ev ery other recognized rei igious philosophy.

Environs

Until recently, education was thought to occur within the contines of a physical campus. With the advent of accessible transportation, PLU's campus spontaneously acquired an off-campus d i me n s i o n , a n o ccurrence coinciding with student expectations for an education which related to the community, the environment and the world. Pacitic Lutheran and its immediate environs provide a fascinating potential for "campus" expansion, the benefits of which are reaped by individ uals.

PLU is located in Parkland, a suburb of Tacoma, Washington, in the heart of the Pacific Northwest. The campus is minutes away f rom Puget Sound, and there are scores of lakes, rivers and streams within driving distance. The most conspicuous natural monument in the area is "the mountain." On a clear day, Mt. Ra in ier's inspiration is self-evident. The Cascades on the east, the rugged Olympics on the west and cool stands of Douglas Fir complete one of the most naturally tranquil environments in the United States. The beaches of the Pacific Ocean are less than two hours away.

Contrasting with this quietude, metropolitan Tacoma and nearby Seattle provide the glamorous learning laboratories native to contemporary urban America. Despite its relative youth, Puget Sound has not entirely escaped the congestion, decay, and social tensions characteristic of our cities. At Pacific Lu t h e r a n , u r b a n p r o blem-solving is a cornerstone of our off-campus dimension. CHOICE ( P L U's Center for Human O r g a n i za tion in Changing Environment), student coalitions, religious organizations and form al classes find satisfaction in confronting urban blight with expertise, patience and considerable enthusiasm.

Finally a quality environment demands a cultural dimension. Again, PLU finds itself in an advantageous position. Puget Sound is heavy wi th "think" industries and educational i n s t i t u tions which generate considerable interest and diversity in fine and popular arts. A typical weekend in Tacoma/Seattle routinely includes opera or ballet at the Seattle Center; a wide variety of professional and amateur th ea tre; resident and visiting symphony orchestras; dozens of galleries and museums; a sel ction of elegant and unique restaurants, and the full complement of American and foreign films.

Closer to home, campus entertainment is p lentiful and inexpensive. Standard fare includes visiting poets, lecturers, performing artists and companies, and an aggressive Uni ersity Gallery program. In recent years the University Art i s t Series has attracted perform rs of national reputation, including the Winnipeg Royal Ballet, Denver Symphony, the National Sha kespeare Company, Claude St-Denis, Carlos Montoya, the J offrey Ballet, and the Canadian Opera.

STUDENT LIFE

PLU is a multi-varied university set amidst a re sidential campus. The concept of an integra ted living·learning environment is considered important, and ties together the many facilities from classroom to library to coffee shops to residence halls. This concept is useful to the off-campus student as well as on, by providing an atmosphere of community that enhances the learning experience.

The full development of each student, the interaction with persons of differing lifestyles, the application of classroom knowledge to each unique living situation and the environment in which this type of learning takes place are elements in the PLU liberal education. In a time w h e n there is considerable clamor for meaningful community, the residential campus facilitates genuine relationships among members of the University, regardless of reo ligious, racial or cultural background.

The University recognizes its obligation to provide services and faci lities which complement the academic environment for all students off·campus and on. The Student Life Office c o ordinates many activities and programs with a high degree of student involvement and leadership. Members of the office are responsible for staffing and assisting with programs in the residence halls, orienting n e w students, assisting foreign students, advising the associated students of PLU (student government), advising the minority student organization, and coordinating other student activities. Health care and counseling are available to all students, full· and part·time, as well as assistance with career planning and placement. Whatever the area of interest or concern, the Student Life staff is ready to offer individual attention and welcomes questions and comments.

Activ ities

The PLU Student Handbook enumerates o v e r 50 a c a d e m i c a n d n o n -academic organizations, clubs, societies and interest groups, which testify to the diversity of campus extra-curricular life. Social action, religious and political organizations; interest and sporting clubs; and service, professional and academic societies are among the options from which to choose.

6

Aesth tic appreciation is available both to participant and audience by way of music and the visual and performing arts. The Choir of the West, University Chorale, Concert Band, the University Symphony Orchestra, a renowned collegiate stage, two art galleries, faculty and student recitals and the Artist Series provide generous opportunities for the performing students. Personal expression is emphasized in debate, student government, campus radio KPLU·FM and the weekly student newspaper.

Organized and individual physical activities are available for everyone. Recreational and competitive programs include football, cross country, basket ball, swimming, hiking, climbing, volleyball, tennis, golf, wrestling, paddleball, bowling, squash, handball, ping pong, baseball, softball, badminton, field hockey, track and field, water polo, skiing, and rowing. Athletics emphasizes development of the individual rather than the search for athletic glory, yet the University's many varsity championships are indicative of an above-average ability on the part of the student body.

Religious Life

The Religious Life Office is the campus ministry center for PLU. The office and its staff are part of PLU's commitment to continue the dialogue of what it means to be a Christian university and what it means to be Christ's servant people in a modern world. The University Ministers are responsible for the development of PLU's diverse worship life ( Un iversity Chapel three times weekly, University Congregation on Sundays during academic year), for non-credit educational programs supplementing the regular curriculum, for service·oriented projects between university and community, and for pastoral care to members of the university community. The Religious Life Council incorporates students, faculty, and administration in facilitating a variety of religious activities representative of the diversity within the university community. Your participation, interest, and suggestions are welcomed.

Library

The Robert A. L. Mortvedt Library, construct ed in 1966, is a multi-media learning center, containing over 200,000 published and recorded items and provides an optimum learning environment of comfort and privacy. It also houses the Mortvedt Library Gallery, the University Photo Service, the Computer Center, the Nisqually Room for raw historical research, and the Archives.

Services

The University Center, completed in 1970, provides 100,000 square feet of service area including food service facilities, lounges, meeting rooms, bookstore, bowling alleys, music listening room, game rooms, private dining rooms, Chris Knutzen Fellowship Hall, student government offices, coffee shop, and a student operated coffee house (The Cave) .

Columbia Center (1962) contains a cafeteria, coffee shop, ba kery and golf pro shop.

Student Health Center houses offices for the University doctors and nurses, out-patient treatment areas and beds for day patients.

Its general objective is to further the basic objectives of the University by providing graduate level academic and professional work. Its specific objectives are: (1) to increase the breadth and depth of understanding of the graduate student i n the liberal arts; (2) to increase the student's knowledge of the research being done in his/her field of concentration and to increase his/her abi l ity to read the professional journals in the area of in terest; (3) to develop the student's abil ity to do independent study and research, and (4) to prepare stud nts, through the upper division and graduate division, and through the Univers ity's professional schools, to enter into a vocation directly, or to enter other graduate schools for further advanced study leadi ng t the doctoral degree.

ADMISSIONS

Students holding a bachel or's degree from an accredited college or uni versity who attained an undergraduate scholastic honor·poin t ratio of 3.0 may be admitted and granted regular status in the Division of Graduate Studies. Students already holding graduate degrees or students who have done satisfactory graduate work at another institution may be admitted on regular status. Those students with an average of less than 3.0 will not be considered for regular status until they have demonstrated their ability to do graduate work by a mi nimum of twelve semester hours of work with a grade point average of 3.0. These students may be granted provisional status.

Appl icants are evaluated in terms of their scholastic qua lifications and preparation for their proposed major fie ld of study. A scholastic average equiva lent of "8" or better in an acceptable undergraduate program is required for regu lar status. The Dean of Graduate S tudies or the prospective major division or school may deny admission if the appl icant's scholastic record is undistinguished, if preparation is judged inadequate as a foundation for graduate work, or if the fac i l i ties are already filled to capacity.

App l i cants for the M aster of Business Administration degree and the M ster of Public Administration degree are required to take the G r a d u ate M a n a gement Admissions Test, and appl i cants for the Master of Arts in Education degree, excluding the guidance and counseling program, are required to take the Mi l ler Analogies Test.

Any prerequisite courses taken during the graduate program may not count toward fulfilling minimum degree requirements.

TRANSFER OF C REDIT

Eight semester hours of graduate work may be taken at another institution and transferred, provided that approval has been given by the student's advisory committee.

In degree programs requiring work beyond 32 semester hours, more than eight semester hours may be transferred, but in any case, the student must compl ete at least 24 semester hours of the degree program at Pacific Lutheran University.

COU RSES TAKEN ON A PASS-FAIL BASIS

If approved by the adviser, a graduate student'S program may include a course offered for pass-fail credit only. In courses where students may elect a letter grade or the pass-fai I option, graduate students must opt for the letter grade.

STANDARDS OF WORK

The minimum standard acceptable for the master's degree is a grade point average of 3.0 in the major field and an overall average of 3.0 in all graduate work.

A student whose grade point average falls below 3.0 is subject to being dropped from the program. In such instances, the recommendation for drop or continuance is made by the st uden t 's advisory co mmittee.

RESEARCH REQUI REMENTS

As an important part of the master's program, the student is required to provide written evidence of ability to do independent research. The manner of fulfilling this requirement will be determined by each student's advisory ommittee in consultation with the student. Details regarding this requirement are provided in subsequent section of this catalog which describes each master's degree program.

If a thesis is written, the original copy mu t be su bmitted to the Office of Graduate Studies along with an abstract of 1 SO words or less. The original copy will be m ic rofilmed by University Microfilms and then bound for the permanent collection of the Pacific Lutheran University Library.

If the research requirement is fulfilled by writing papers other than a thesis, one copy of each approved paper must be submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies along with an abstract of 150 words or less.

All work which is submitted as having fulfilled the research requirement must be in the Office of Graduate Studies no later than two weeks prior to the commencement at which the student is to receive thlC degree.

Details regarding format and style of the thesis or research papers may be obtained in the Graduate Studies Office.

MASTER OF PUBLIC ADMI N I ST R AT ION

C U R R I C U L U M The pu rpose of the evening M.P.A. program i s to

p rovide, through education, a foundation for respo nsible leade rshi p in the managemen t of publ ic agen cies. Combi ned with general and special ized und ergraduate education, this program is centered on the ski l ls and knowledge for effective publ ic ad m i nistration. O pportu n i ties for specializati on are a l s o a v a i l a b l e t h r o ug h a d d i t i o n al optional u ndergraduate and grad uate cou rses.

The M.P.A. curri culum consi sts of two preparatory courses, two u ndergraduate level cour es, seven graduate level c ou rses , the Research Col loquium, and either a formal thesis or one gradudte elective course. This curriculum is divided in to three parts:

Analytica l Te chniques I nst i tuti o nal Environment Ap pl i cation of Resea rch and Management Ski l l s The sequence of studies begins, prefera bly, with

the preparatory courses or exa m i nations for credit taken either at Pacific Luthe ran U n iversity or el ewhere. In dividuals holding a recent bache lor's degree In business ad m i n i stratio n or the equivalent wou l d normally have satisfied the preparatory cou rse rl!qu irements.

The seq uence of graduate courses norma l l y begins with Econ omic Anal ysis and Po l icy Decisions, and Quanti tative Methods, the two courses offered by the Depart ment of Economi cs. They are followed by the graduate accounting co urse, and the Organizational ' E nvironment course.

U sually the next courses taken are the fou r cou rses o n i n stitutiona l envi ron ment and manage m e n t fu ncti ns , followed by the integrative course on pol icy science.

At t h i s point the studen t may take the co mprehensive written exam i nations i n the three fields of operations management, government financial man age ment, and the pol i ti cal enviro n me nt. These written ex ami n ati ons are offered once every semester on the last Saturday in October and March.

The concluding study is cen tered on the research requiremen t and the application of research and probl e m-sol v i n g ski l ls. This final phase of the program is intended to provide the student with an opport u n ity to master these skil ls while developing expert ise i n an area of particular inte rest. I t further acknowledges the desirabi l i ty of assur i ng that each graduate possesses a m i n i m u m competence in using and i n terpreting researc h me tho ds, tools, and te h n iques. A wide range of topics and approaches is possible, giving the student con si derab le latitude i n pla n ni ng h is/her progra m . The student may also prefer to take course work i n an area of specialized or professional in terest. These studies may or may not cui m i nate i n a formal research study or the si s, depending on the needs and capabi l i t ies of the indi vidua l .

The fol l owing gu ide l i nes are provided t o enable selecti on of an option that wi l l most effectively meet the stu de nt's Individual needs.

Plan A Plan A consists of two basic req u irements: 1. A passing grade in BA 5 96, Research Colloquium,

and 2. Su ccessful completion of a maj or research study,

which may consist of either ( a ) a formal thesis, or (b) a formal case study ( includi ng analysis) s u i table for publicati on in the Harvard I n tercollegiate Case Clearing Ho u se collecti ons.

I n brief, the procedural aspects i n c l u d e : (a) preparation of a r esearch proposal, usually done i n conj unct ion with B A 5 96 ; ( b ) se lection of a research advisory com mittee; ( c ) sub mission and approval of the student's research proposa l ; ( d ) com pleti on of the thesi s or case; and (e) formal review of the cand idate's resea rch, general l y con ducted in conjunct i o n with the fi nal oral exa mi nat i on. Copies of all fo rmal thesis st udies are catal ogued i n the Ro bert A. L. Mortvedt library as for m a l publ icati ons of the U n i vers i t y ; less formal stud ies are fi led d i rect ly i n the archives and are ava i l a ble for use by students and fa c u lty.

Plan B Plan B has two major req ui r ements: 1 . A passing gra de i n BA 5 96 , Research Co l l o q u i u m ,
