THE Oregon State System of Higher Education, as organ­ized in 1932 by the State Board of Higher Education fol­
lowing a Federal survey of higher education in Oregon,
includes all the state~supportedinstitutions of higher learning.
The several institutions are now elements in an articulated sys­
tem, parts of an integrated whole. The educational program is
SO organized as to distribute as widely as possible throughout
the state the opportunities for general education and to center
on a particular campus specialized, technical, and professional
curricula closely related to one another.
The institutions of the State System of Higher Education
are the University of Oregon at Eugene, Oregon State College
at Corvallis, the Oregon College of Education at Monmouth,
the Southern Oregon College of Education at Ashland, and
the Eastern Oregon College of Education at La Grande. The
University of Oregon Medical School, located on a separate
campus in Portland, is administratively autonomous but tra­
ditionally and academically an integral part of the University
of Oregon.
Each of the five institutions provides the general studies
fundamental to a well-rounded education. At the three colleges
of education general and professional studies are combined in
the teacher-training curriculum. At the Southern Oregon
College of Education and the Eastern Oregon College of
Education students who do not plan to become elementary­
school teachers may devote their time exclusively to lower­
division studies in the liberal arts and sciences.
At the University and the State College two years of un­
specialized work in liberal arts and sciences are provided on a
parallel basis in the Lower Division. Major curricula, both
liberal and professional, are grouped on either campus in ac­
cordance with the distinctive functions of the respective insti~
tutions in the unified State System of Higher Education.
The educational program thus developed, as shown in the
following insert, includes: (1) Liberal Arts and Sciences, (2)
Professional and Technical Curricula, (3) Graduate Study
and Research.

General Information
The Oregon State System of Higher Education makes available a wide range
of instruction through correspondence courses to persons who would like to study
but who cannot attend an institution of learning.
Correspondence courses are designed to aid persons wishing to earn credits
toward an academic degree, toward graduation from a teachers' college or from
high school, or toward the completion of college entrance requirements, and to
serve those who wish to pursue studies under competent direction, without refer­
ence to academic credits or requirements.
A correspondence course is carefully organized instruction by means of lesson
outlines, prepared by members of the faculties of the State System. These outlines
take the place of lectures and class exercises given to students in residence. Using
these lesson outlines as guides, the student studies textbooks and reference ma­
terials in the courses which he selects, prepares written papers and reports, which
he mails to the General Extension Division for correction and comment by instruc­
tors. The corrected reports are returned to the student.
No entrance examinations are required, but any person of sufficient maturity
and preparation to carry courses successfully may enroll. The General Extension
Division reserves the right to advise students and help them select the courses
best suited to their preparation and needs. Students wishing credit must meet
regular academic requirements.
SPECIFIC ADVANTAGES OF CORRESPONDENCE STUDY
Correspondence study is in no sense recommended as a substitute for resi­
dent study at an educational institution. Nevertheless, instruction by correspon­
dence has many decided advantages for those who, for the time being at least,
cannot avail themselves of the opportunities offered by actual presence on a
campus. Some of these advantages may be enumerated as follows:
1. Work may be done at any time.
2. Studying may be done at a time and under conditions of the student's own
choosing.
3. Studying may be done in leisure hours, without in any way interfering with
the breadwinning activities of the student.
4. The student is encouraged to do original thinking in the preparation of
his lesson reports. Because he does the work alone, for the most part, there is
not the temptation to be guided in his thinking by his classmates. This method
of study thus develops the student's resourcefulness and independence.
S. Progress toward the completion of courses may be practically as rapid as
the ability and application of the student will permit. Thus the student who grasps
ideas quickly is not held back by less brilliant classmates, while, on the other
hand, the slower and more methodical student is enabled to choose his own rate
of study.
6. Credits earned in correspondence study may be counted toward a college
or university degree, toward graduation from a college of education, or toward
graduation from high school.
7. Correspondence study is inexpensive, both because the fees are small and
because the work can be done at home.

ELIGIBILITY TO CORRESPONDENCE STUDY
Residents of the States. The correspondence courses offered by the Gen­
eral Extension Division are intended primarily for residents of the state. Special
fees are required of non-resident students. (See "Fee", page 9.)
Correspondence courses and work in residence may not be carried at the
same time. No student is permitted to carry correspondence work while in actual
attendance at any college or high school, except by special permission of the in­
stitution in which he is a resident student and by consultation with the General
Extension Division. All such arrangements must be made through the head of
correspondence study in the General Extension Division.
Correspondence students who register for resident work in an educational
institution before completing their course must confer with the General Extension
Division to secure an extension of time on the correspondence course.
Special rules govern the carrying of work by correspondence during the
short vacation periods between terms. In general, students are not permitted to
submit correspondence lessons unless the vacation period is one week or longer.
Any resident student desiring to do correspondence work during the Christmas
or spring vacations must first consult the General Extension Division in regard
to procedure. These regulations apply to students in residence at any educational
institution.
GENERAL RULES GOVERNING CORRESPONDENCE STUDY
Selection and Application. The student should select a course carefully.
If taken for credit to meet a requirement, it should be the best course for the
purpose. Advice in choosing courses should be secured from the head of corres­
pondence study. An application blank may be found on the last page of this
catalog. The student should fill out this application form, giving all the informa­
tion requested, and return it to the General Extension Division with the fee.
The Lessons. If the student's application is accepted, the first lessons are
sent to him at once with directions for the preparation of written reports which
he is to send to the correspondence study department for criticism by the instructor.
Reports should be sent in one at a time as soon as completed in order that the
benefit of criticisms and suggestions may be had in the preparation of subsequent
lessons.
Criticism of Reports. Students are asked to accept criticism in the helpful
spirit in which it is intended, as it is only in this way that an instructor can guide
the student in the correction of his mistakes and lead him to do constructive work.
At no time should· a student permit himself to pass by portions of lessons that
he does not understand. Questions should be asked freely whenever there is any
difficulty.
Time Required. Those working for credit may not complete more than
eight term hours during any period of three months, if they are regularly em­
ployed or are housewives who are able to give only spare time to study. Those
giving their full time to correspondence study, upon satisfactory evidence to the
General Extension Division that this is the case, may complete a maximum of
twelve term hours during any period of twelve weeks. There is always the op­
portunity to dig deeper. Reports should be distributed evenly throughout the
period of study. The secretary or instructor may refuse to accept the reports of
a student who hurries his work unduly.
Length of Course. Where practicable, courses are outlined in units of
sixteen lessons each. Some subjects are treated in a series of units so arranged
that students who do not have the time or do not care for all of the units may
select those they prefer. A number of courses, however, have twenty-four and
thirty-two assignments, and a few have forty-eight.
Number of Courses. A student should not register for more than one or
two courses at one time. Those who are not familiar with correspondence meth­
ods and those who have only spare time for study should never attempt more than
one course at a time. When an extensive course is arranged in more than one
section, a student should enroll for each section separately.
Texts. Students should if possible secure their own copies of required
texts. Libraries may be relied upon for reference material and supplementary
reading, but cannot be expected to supply texts. The General Extension Division
will furnish upon request information regarding texts for any course.
Supplies. All supplies required in the preparation of written assignments
are furnished by the student. The student also pays postage on papers sent to
the General Extension Division. The Division pays return postage on lesson papers.
EXPENSES
Fee. The amount of the fee for residents of Oregon is stated after the
description of each course in this catalog. A student whose home is not in Oregon,
or one who is required to pay a "non-resident fee" at an educational institution in
this state, pays $5.00 in addition to the fee for resident students; when a course
is arranged in two or more sections, $5.00 must be added to the resident fee for
each section. This non-resident fee is waived for the duration of the war for men
and women in any branch of the armed forces.
When Payable. Fees are payable in advance and should accompany the
application for courses. Fees will be returned to the student if his application is
not accepted. After a student has been registered in a course, press of other work
or unwillingness to carryon the course will not be considered adequate cause
for his withdrawal. Serious illness that may prevent completion of the course
within the registration period, or enrollment in a similar course as part of a resi­
dent program in an educational institution will be regarded as suffin'ent reason
for a request for a refund of fees, prrrvided the request is made to the General
Extension Division within three months of the date of registration. When refunds
are made, $2.00 of the fee for each course will be retained for registration. No
course fee will be refunded after a student has submitted lesson reports.
Fees will be refunded to persons in military service provided no more than
one half the lessons in the course have been completed and that the request for
a refund is received by the General Extension Division within three months of the
date of registration. When such refunds are made, $2.00 will be retained for regis­
tration and 50 cents for each lesson report that has been corrected.
A student may transfer from one course to another by the payment of $1.00
in addition to any necessary adjustment in fees between the two courses and 50
cents for each assignment completed in the original course. The date of expiration
of the new course will be the same as the date of expiration of the original course.
10 OREGON HIGHER EDUCATION CORRESPONDENCE STUDY 11
Money should be sent in the form of postal order, express order, or bank draft
tMde payable to the General Extension Division.
Duration of Course Registration. One year from the end of the quarter
in which the enrollment occurs is allowed a student for the completion of a course.
On application to the General Extension Division, extension of time may be
granted equivalent to the time lost on a course by reason of serious illness or by
attendance at an educational institution, provided application for such extension
of time is made when active work is discontinued.
Renewal Fee. A course registration which has expired may be renewed
for an additional year by the payment of a renewal fee of $2.00. A student will
fIOt be permitted more than two renewals on anyone course or section of a course.
CREDIT FOR CORRESPONDENCE STUDY
Final Examinations must be taken in all correspondence courses for
which the student desires credit; otherwise, examinations are optional. The
General Extension Division strongly advises students to take final examinations
in all courses in which they have completed the lessons satisfactorily. Often those
who have no thought of using credit at the time courses are completed later find
they need it in connection with plans for advancement.
To secure credit in a course, the final examination must be taken within six
weeks from the time work on the lessons is completed. Otherwise, special arrange­
ments must be made with. the General Extension Division.
Final Examinations Must be Supervised. They may be taken in the office
of the General Extension Division, Eugene, in the Portland Center office, 814
Oregon Building, Portland, or under supervision approved by the Extension
Division. Arrangements for the examination should be made some time before
the date on which the writing is to be done.
Undergraduate Credit Allowed.• Sixty term hours earned in correspondence
courses is the maximum amount of credit that may be counted toward a bachelor's
degree.
No Graduate Credit is allowed for correspondence study.
College Entrance Credit. Students who have college entrance deficiencies
may take correspondence courses to remove them. The high school courses de­
scribed on pages 44 to 49 of the catalog are for this purpose, although mature stu­
dents may also enroll in certain college courses for entrance credit. For this
purpose, nine term hours of college credit may be counted the equivalent of one
entrance unit.
Non-Matriculated Students. Students who have not matriculated at an
educational institution may have credit for courses recorded provisionally only.
After matriculation requirements have been met, correspondence credit may be
counted toward graduation, provided the course is approved for credit by the
institution concerned.
.. A senior who is taking a correspondence course for credit toward a degree must com­
plete the course not less than two weeks before the date of his graduation. The General Extension
Division cannot assume responsibility for credit in a course that is not completed in accordance
with this requirement.
Transfer of Credit. Credits earned in correspondence courses with the
General Extension Division may be transferred to other institutions of higher
education in the state. There is also an exchange of credits permitted between
colleges and universities having membership in the National University Exten~
sion Association. The General Extension Division is a member of this Association.
To prevent mistakes in the selection of correspondence courses, any student
who expects to have credits transferred should, before his enrollment, secure
approval from the school to which the credits are to be transferred. He should
also consult the head of correspondence study in the General Extension Division.
Requirements for Degrees. A student should consult the genera. catalog
of the institution from which he expects to receive his degree for requirements
before he plans his correspondence study program.
Grades. The quality of student work is measured by a system of grades
and grade points. Grade points are as follows: four passing grades, A, B, C, D;
failure, F; incomplete, Inc. The grade of A denotes exceptional accomplishment;
B, superior; C, average; D, inferior. Grade points are computed on the basis of
4 points for each term hour of A grade, 3 points for each term hour of B, 2 points
for each term hour of C, 1 point for each term hour of D, and 0 points for each
term hour of F. A mark of Inc. is disregarded in the computation of points. The
grade point average (GPA) is the quotient of total points divided by total term
hours in which grades (A, B, C, D, and F) are received. Grade points are com­
puted on all work which the student does as an undergraduate (including trans­
ferred hours, correspondence study, and special examinations).
DEFINITIONS
A Course is a subject, or an instructional subdivision of a subject, offered
through a single term.
A Year-Sequence consists of three closely articulated courses extending
through the three terms of the academic year.
A Curriculum is an organized program of study arranged to provide
definite cultural or professional preparation.
A Term Hour retresents three hours of the student's time each week for
one term. This time may be assigned to work in classroom or laboratory or
to outside preparation.
Enrollment in correspondence courses is not confined to terms. Students may
register for courses at any time during the year.
ADMISSION TO FIRST-YEAR STANDING
The requirements for admission to first-year or freshman standing conform
to the following uniform entrance requirements adopted by all the institutions
of higher education in Oregon:
Graduation from a standard high school, which in Oregon involves the com­
pletion of 16 units, 8 of which shall be required as follows: 3 units in English;
2 units in social science, comprising the state-adopted courses in United States
history-civics and socia-economic problems; 1 unit in health and physical educa­
tion; and 2 units selected from the field of natural science and mathematics or
12 OREGON HIGHER EDUCATION CORRESPONDENCE STUDY 13
the field of foreign language. Two units in either natural science or mathematics
or 1 unit in each of these subjects will be acceptable, but a minimum of 2 units in
a single language will be required if a foreign language is selected.
Graduates from standard out-of-state high schools are required to present
substantially the same distribution of units. Applicants who are not residents of
Oregon may be held for additional requirements demonstrating superior ability.
Evidence of acceptable scholastic preparation may consist of either (l) cer­
tificate of preparatory-school record, or (2) statement of standing on College
Entrance Board examinations.
Application for admission by certificate is made on the official form, Applica­
tion for Admission to Oregon Higher Institutions, furnished to schools by the
State Department of Education. The applicant's scholastic record must be certified
by the principal or superintendent of his school.
Students seeking admission by examination should gain information from
the secretary of the College Entrance Examination Board, 431 West 117th Street,
New York City.
ADMISSION WITH ADVANCED STANDING
Advanced standing is granted to students transferring from accredited in­
stitutions of collegiate rank. The amount of credit granted depends upon the
nature and quality of the applicant's previous work, evaluated according to the
academic requirements of the University and State College.
A student wishing credit for work done elsewhere than at an accredited
educational institution must petition for permission to take examinations in spe­
cific courses listed in the catalog of any institution in the State System. In general,
credit by examination is allowed only for work taken in regularly organized courses
in nonaccredited institutions of collegiate rank.
Final determination of the amount of credit to be granted may be deferred
until after the student has been in attendance for at least three terms.
ADMISSION AS A SPECIAL STUDENT
An applicant for admission as a special student must be not less than 21
years of age, and must file with the Registrar documentary evidence sufficient to
prove his special fitness to pursue the subjects desired. ~
Two classes of special students are recognized: (1) those not qualified for
admission as regular students but qualified by maturity and experience to work
along special lines ; and (2) those qualified for admission as regular students but
not working toward a degree.
A special student may petition for regular standing when he has made up
entrance deficiencies or has completed at least 45 term hours in the University and
State College. Credits earned by a special student will not subsequently be
counted toward a degree until the student has completed at least two years of
work (93 term hours) as a regular student. In case a regular student changes to
special status, work done while classified as a special student will not count toward
a degree.
College Correspondence Courses
The number before the title of a course indicates whether the course carries
upper or lower division credit. Numbers from 1 to m indicate lower division;
those 300 and above indicate upper division. Numbers following the course title
represent: (1) term hours (t.h.) of credit; (2) number of lesson assignments
(a.) ; and (3) the enrollment fee for students living in Oregon. Students living
outside of the state must add a non-resident fee of $5.00 to the fee for each course
or section of a course as stated in this catalog. The non-resident fee is waived
during the war period for persons in all branches of the armed forces.
No credit earned in correspondence courses may be applied toward a graduate
degree.

High School Courses
These courses are offered in cooperation with the office of the State Superin­
tendent of Public Instruction, which has approved their acceptance by the prin­
cipal of any high school in Oregon for credit toward graduation. Students who wish
to use them toward graduation should secure the approval of their principal to
insure selection of the proper course. The courses may also be used by students
beyond high school age who wish to clear college entrance deficiencies.
Colleges and universities in Oregon have agreed upon these minimum entrance
requirements:
Graduation from a standard high school, which in Oregon involves the com­
pletion of 16 units, 8 of which shall be required as follows: 3 units in English;
2 units in social science, comprising the state-adopted courses in United States
history-civics and socio-economic problems; 1 unit in health and physical educa­
tion; and 2 units selected from the fields of natural science and mathematics or the
field of foreign language. Two units in either natural science or mathematics or 1
unit in each of these fields will be acceptable, but a minimum of 2 units in a single
language will be required if a foreign language is selected. At the State College,
to be admitted to any of the four-year curricula in engineering, except industrial
arts, one unit in algebra, one-half unit in higher algebra, and one unit in geom­
etry must be presented. A student deficient in mathematics may be admitted to a
pre-engineering course for the first year, necessitating a five-year program to
qualify for graduation.
Graduates from standard out-of-state high schools shall be required to present
substantially the above distribution of units. Such applicants who are not residents
of Oregon may be held for additional requirements demonstrating superior ability.
College credit will not be given for any of these courses, but college entrance
credit will be granted for the satisfactory completion of any of them.
A unit, when applied to high school credit, means the equivalent of five recita­
tions per week of not less than 40 minutes each, in one branch of study, for the
school year of not less than 36 weeks.
Numbers following the title of a course indicate: (1) unit (u.), etc., of high
school or college entrance credit; (2) number of assignments (a.) ; and (3) amount
of fee required.

Extension and Correspondence Services
EXTENSION CLASSES
Classes that combine direct methods of instruction with the correspondence
method will be organized whenever there is a sufficient group desiring such in­
struction, and the necessary arrangements can be made by the General Extension
Division to provide an instructor.
Requirements. Usually a class cannot be organized when the initial
membership is less than twenty. A group wishing to organize should decide
upon the course of study it wishes to pursue, with an alternative course in case
an instructor for the first cannot be secured and should put some responsible
person in charge of all necessary arrangements, such as room, membership,
publicity and any other details that arise in connection with such a class. A reas­
onable degree of permanency in membership will be expected by the General
Extension Division in organizing classes, as satisfactory work cannot be done
when the personnel of the group is constantly changing.
Either credit or non-credit courses will be given in classes meeting regularly
and following a definite course of study under the direction of an instructor
provided by the General Extension Division.
Applications. Applications for extension classes outside of Portland, Oregon,
should be made to the General Extension Division, Oregon State System of Higher
Education, Eugene, Oregon. Applications for classes in or near Portland should
be made to the Portland office of the General Extension Division, 814 Oregon
Building, Portland, Oregon.
STUDY COURSES FOR CLUBS
The General Extension Division invites women's clubs, teachers' study clubs,
granges and other groups of persons whose common interest in some subject
makes group study desirable,. to ask for assistance in the preparation of study
outlines. Frequently the subject on which an outline is desired is one that is espe­
cially familiar to some member of the faculty, who can suggest methods of study
and bibliographies.
Correspondence courses also furnish excellent outlines for group study. En­
rollment with the General Extension Division has the added advantage of giving
the .individual regular instruction and the opportunity to confer with the instructor
regarding the work of the course. .
• These courses include so much of the material that Is in the courses in Civics I and II
and Social Problems that students who have completed either or both of the latter coursea
may not receive credit for the former.
