Volume 78, Number 1 May 2014 Printed by BYU–Idaho University Press 2 Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Welcome to Brigham Young University-Idaho. My wife, Sue, and I love this school and the wonderful young people who come here. As you begin your studies, let me share with you two points of counsel regarding your time at BYU-Idaho. First, take advantage of opportunities to develop as a disciple of Jesus Christ. You can enhance your discipleship by obeying the Honor Code, attending weekly devotionals, and being active in your campus ward. These experiences will enrich your life, provide you with valuable knowledge, and prepare you to serve, love, and lift others. Second, become immersed in learning. You will soon become familiar with the BYU-Idaho Learning Model. It emphasizes individual preparation, collaborative and reflective learning opportunities, and reliance on the guidance of the Holy Ghost by both instructors and learners. As you engage in active teaching and experiential learning, you will become further prepared to be a capable leader in your family, the Church, the workplace, and the community where you live. I invite you to embrace all that BYU-Idaho has to offer. You will be rewarded now and far into the future. May the Lord bless you with happiness and success in your endeavors. Again, welcome to campus. Warm regards, Kim B. Clark President, Brigham Young University-Idaho 3 Table of Contents Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Accreditation .......................................................................20

considers non-discrimination to be fundamental to its mission, goals, and objectives. BYU-Idaho recognizes that its’ future success is, in part, dependent upon its ability to successfully accommodate the increasingly diverse nature of the student body and employees, which diversity is promoted by the worldwide growth of its sponsoring Church. The University is committed not to unlawfully discriminate in the administration of its’ educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, employment and other school-administered programs on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, age, sex, veteran status, genetic information, or disability for all individuals who meet university and department academic requirements and agree to abide by the university’s standards of conduct and behavior. The university does exercise the “religious” exemption in admissions as granted in Title IX of the Education Amendments, 20 U.S.C. 1681 (a)(3) and in hiring employees as granted in 41 CFR 60-1.5(a)(5). Any person who believes he or she has encountered discrimination should contact the following: Students: .................................................................................................. Dean of Students Office, located in 290 Kimball, or call 496-9200 Faculty:................................................................................................................. Academic Office, located in 210 Kimball, or call 496-1135 Staff:........................................................................................................ Human Resources Office, located in 226 Kimball, or call 496-1700 Academic Freedom Brigham Young University—Idaho (BYU-Idaho) is sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. BYU-Idaho invites faculty and students to pursue secular knowledge in a climate of religious belief. This model consciously embraces all truth, regardless of its source. Individual freedom lies at the core of both religious and academic life and is based not only on a belief in the value of free inquiry, but also on the gospel principle that humans are moral agents. Individuals should seek knowledge in the sacred as well as in the secular, by the heart and spirit as well as by the mind, and through continuing revelation as well as in the written word of God. The faculty and students are entrusted with individual academic freedom and are encouraged to pursue truth according to the theories, methodologies, and practices that characterize scholarship in the various disciplines. This trust encompasses the freedom to explore a variety of ideas. The Board of Trustees and the academic leadership of BYU-Idaho expect faculty members to protect the fundamental interests and the doctrines of the Church, the individual faith of Church members, and the mission of the University at all times. Faculty members are free to discuss and analyze Church doctrine and policy. However, faculty members should not engage in expression privately or in public that knowingly contradicts or opposes Church doctrine and policy. Faculty members should not deliberately attack or deride the Church, the University, their leaders, or the principles of the Honor Code. 5 Mission Statement Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Mission Statement Brigham Young University–Idaho is affiliated with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Its mission is to: 1. Build testimonies of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ and encourage living its principles. 2. Provide a quality education for students of diverse interests and abilities. 3. Prepare students for lifelong learning, for employment, and for their roles as citizens and parents. 4. Maintain a wholesome academic, cultural, social and spiritual environment. 6 Lifelong Learning Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 LIFELONG LEARNING Foundations offers a focused and complete approach to learning Brigham Young University-Idaho prepares students for lifelong learning, for employment, and for their roles as citizens and parents. Innovative educational concepts help prepare graduates to contribute significantly to the Church, the community, and the workplace. BYU-Idaho is home to the Foundations program. This unique approach to general education courses is aimed at raising the quality of every student’s experience at BYU-Idaho. In the previous general education program, students had a longer and more diverse list of classes to choose from, creating a significantly different experience for each student. Foundations has purposefully limited the number of class options, ensuring that all students will have similar experiences and receive a more focused educational experience. At BYU-Idaho: • A year-round track system allows more students to attend. • Internships enhance marketability. • The Student Activities Program provides students with opportunities to lead and serve. • The Learning Model fosters faith-building learning. • The Foundations Program offers a focused and complete approach to learning. • Students are trained to be leaders. • Students develop a life of honor. • The “Spirit of Ricks” is preserved and enhanced. Students are trained to be leaders While most universities are research-focused and faculty-centered, BYU-Idaho is teaching-focused and student-centered. Through hands-on student employment and leadership opportunities, thousands of students every year are given practical opportunities to build skills that will help them become disciples of Christ and leaders in the workforce. A year-round track system allows more students to attend President Kim B. Clark said, “We engage our students in active leadership with meaningful responsibility across the university. They are required to lead, direct, and move things forward in managing many of our programs and activities.” BYU-Idaho operates on an expanded year-round basis to allow more students the opportunity to attend. This creative academic calendar revolves around a three-track system: Spring/Fall, Fall/Winter, and Winter/Spring. Qualified students are admitted to one of the three tracks and they stay on the same track through graduation. Yearround options are available as students enter their upper coursework. Students develop a life of honor The heart of BYU-Idaho is Personal Honor. This means all students live by the BYU-Idaho Code of Honor, dress and grooming standards, and specific housing guidelines. Obedience and faith are the core of Personal Honor as each student strives to raise his or her personal bar of righteousness. Internships enhance marketability BYU-Idaho is one of the largest intern-producing universities in the nation. An academic internship is a cooperative program between the student, the university, and approved experience providers (employers). Internships enable students to obtain practical and valuable work experience, to apply skills and knowledge learned in school, and to gain exposure to various job opportunities. In most cases, an internship is a required element for both associate and bachelor degree-seeking students. BYU-Idaho holds a weekly devotional and students attend weekly worship services and other church activities—all bringing students together to be taught by the Spirit. Through unity, sacrifice, and love, students become better leaders in their homes, in the Church, and in the world around them. The Student Activities Program allows students to lead and serve The “Spirit of Ricks” is preserved and enhanced BYU-Idaho Student Activities Program meets the needs and interests of a broad and diverse student body. An array of year-round activities is offered in the areas of Outdoor, Social, Service, Talent, Fitness, and Sports. Each area is structured to give students numerous opportunities for active involvement at various levels of interest and commitment. Our innovative programs help students develop character and enhance leadership skills. Within Activities, students are participants not just spectators. While looking to the future, we work to preserve and enhance the “Spirit of Ricks.” Simply stated, this entails upholding a tradition of service, hard work, friendliness, and compassion—the same convention that bonded the students, faculty, and administration for more than 100 years as Ricks College. President Kim B. Clark said, “Our mission, our very purpose, is to educate, develop, and prepare disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ. This purpose is deeply rooted in this university. The Lord watches over this university in a very powerful way. Our purpose is to help [students] become His true followers, His true disciples, a light to the world.” The Learning Model fosters faith-building learning At BYU-Idaho, everyone is a learner and a teacher. Designed to deepen the learning experience of students, the Learning Model helps create a greater responsibility for students to learn and teach one another. It is an inspired learning process and builds on the understanding that all learners and teachers are at different levels in their individual progress. It encourages learners and teachers to prepare, teach one another, and then ponder and prove. For more information, contact BYU-Idaho at (208) 496-1411, or visit www.byui.edu. The Learning Model teaches learners and teachers to 1) exercise faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as a principle of action and power; 2) understand that true teaching is done by and with the Holy Ghost; 3) lay hold upon the word of God—as found in the holy scriptures and in the words of the prophets—in all disciplines; 4) act for themselves and accept responsibility for learning and teaching; and 5) love, serve, and teach one another. 7 Administration Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Administration Kim B.

However, students are subject to all other policies, requirements, and procedures as outlined in the University catalog for the current academic year. • Resident Credit: To graduate with a bachelor’s degree a student must complete a minimum of 30 credit hours of BYU–Idaho credit. To graduate with an associate degree a student must complete a minimum of 24 credit hours of BYU–Idaho credit. • On-Campus Credit: To graduate with any degree, a student must earn a minimum of 15 credits on campus (not online) at BYU–Idaho or successfully complete one of the options within BYU–Idaho’s Pathway Program (Academic Start or Accelerated Start). Students who transfer 15 or more credits earned on campus at another CES school (BYU, BYU–Hawaii, or LDSBC) will be considered as having met this graduation requirement. • Upper Division Credit: To graduate with a bachelor’s degree, a student must complete a minimum of 15 hours of BYU–Idaho upper-division credit (300 or 400-level courses). Associate degrees do not require a minimum number of upper-division credits. • Minor: At least 6 credits must be taken in residence. • Concentration: At least 6 credits must be upper-division credit (300 or 400-level courses). • Cluster: At least 1 course per cluster must be taken in residence. • Academic Standing: Students who are academically suspended or academically dismissed may not graduate from BYU–Idaho • Good Honor Code Standing: Students must be in Good Honor Code Standing in order to graduate from BYU–Idaho. Former students wishing to graduate from BYU–Idaho, but whose ecclesiastical endorsement has expired, will need to submit a current endorsement before their application for graduation will be processed. Commencement and Convocation exercises are held in April, July, and December. Students who do not attend Convocation must claim a diploma cover from the Student Records and Registration Office before leaving campus. Diplomas will be mailed to graduates only after all requirements have been completed and verified, usually 6-8 weeks after final grades are posted. Graduation exercises at BYU-Idaho differ than most others in that we invite the ministry of the Spirit by our conduct and proceedings. To assist in this process and to show respect for everyone present, graduates are asked to adhere to BYU-Idaho’s Dress and Grooming Standard of Sunday dress. Additionally, so as not to draw attention to any one individual; flowers, leis, honor cords and other embellishments that might be considered academic regalia should not be attached to or worn with the cap and gown during the convocation or commencement ceremonies. However, outside of these ceremonies, the wearing of honor cords and other regalia are permitted for society and other graduation pictures. GRADUATION HONORS • • • Cum Laude: Students ranked in the top 10% of their graduating class. Magna Cum Laude: Students ranked in the top 5% of their graduating class. Summa Cum Laude: Students ranked in the top 1% of their graduating class. All honors are based on the cumulative GPA completed at the end of the semester prior to the graduation ceremony. No adjustments will be made for grades posted or changed following the graduation ceremony. To be eligible, the application must be submitted before the application deadline. FINANCIAL HOLDS Candidates with outstanding debts to any department or office will not receive diplomas or official transcripts until all amounts are paid. EXIT SURVEY APPLICATION FOR GRADUATION In the interest of documenting post-graduation rates of employment for accreditation purposes, all students must complete a brief exit survey, available online, approximately one month before their anticipated graduation. Current students apply for graduation online via my.byui.edu. Former students may request assistance in applying for graduation at [email protected]. For specific deadlines, refer to the Academic Deadline Calendar found in this catalog. Students who apply after the Graduation Application deadline will not be included in the Commencement Program and will not be considered for academic honors. Graduates’ names will be included in the program for the Commencement for which they apply to graduate, not the Commencement in which they march, if different. Various means will be used to remind students of this graduation requirement, including emails sent to the student’s BYU–Idaho email account with a link to the survey, a notation on the student’s Grad Report, and notification through the respective college Career and Academic Advising offices. Completion of the exit survey is a graduation requirement, and candidates for graduation who do not complete the survey will not receive their diploma until they have done so. Official graduation is subject to a degree audit following the last semester of enrollment. The Student Records and Registration office will notify students of any graduation deficiencies. The Graduation Application of those who do not complete the requirements will be reevaluated at the end of the next semester. However, students who do not complete graduation requirements within one year after application must reapply for graduation. 18 University Outcomes Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 University Outcomes University-level outcomes (which are listed below) were developed by synthesizing common outcomes from academic programs across the university.

Accreditation of an institution of higher education by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities indicates that it meets or exceeds criteria for the assessment of institutional quality evaluated through a peer review process. An accredited college or university is one which has available the necessary resources to achieve its stated purposes through appropriate educational programs, is substantially doing so, and gives reasonable evidence that it will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Institutional integrity is also addressed through accreditation. Accreditation by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities is not partial but applies to the institution as a whole. As such, it is not a guarantee of every course or program offered, or the competence of individual graduates. Rather, it provides reasonable assurance about the quality of opportunities available to students who attend the institution. Inquiries regarding an institution’s accredited status by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities should be directed to the administrative staff of the institution.

Each certificate is nested within an associates degree. 29 Foundations Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 This is an exciting time to be associated with Brigham Young University-Idaho as it continues on a steady, upward course of academic innovation. Dedicated administrators and faculty members are continually working to prepare students to be well-educated academically as well as spiritually. One of the university’s academic developments is our general education program called Foundations. Just as the name suggests, Foundations is designed to provide a strong base for the rest of your university experience and throughout your life. Foundations presents a focused approach to general education, allowing students to explore specific aspects of diverse subjects, delving deep into each topic. The courses are interdisciplinary and have been created through countless hours of faculty collaboration to provide you with the most effective learning outcomes. Foundations courses are divided into five groups: Eternal Truths, Academic Fundamentals, Science, Cultural Awareness, and Connections. While some courses are required, others are left to personal preference. You will be blessed as you enter these inspired classes with an open mind and willing heart. I invite you to carefully review the Foundations courses available and determine which classes will benefit you most. I wish you success in this and every other endeavor here at BYU-Idaho. Best regards, Kim B. Clark President, Brigham Young University-Idaho 30 Foundations Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Overview of Foundations Connections: All students take the 2-credit Foundations Capstone course. • FDCNC 350, Foundations Capstone: Analytical Thinking and Moral Judgment (2 credits) A BYU-Idaho education includes both the acquisition of marketable skills and a broad general education. BYU-Idaho graduates should not only be employable, but also literate, well rounded, cultured, and informed. They should be good thinkers and good communicators. They should be good citizens with strong testimonies. And they should graduate with the passion and skills to make them lifelong learners. Foundations Requirements: Associate’s Degree (A.A. or A.S.) For students pursuing an associate’s degree, a total of 32 credits of Foundations courses are required. The requirements are the same as those for a bachelor’s degree, with two exceptions. Students pursuing an associate’s degree only complete 8 credits in the Eternal Truths area: FDREL 121, FDREL 122, FDREL 200, plus two additional FDREL credits of their choice. Also, for an associate’s degree, students do not take the Foundations Capstone course, FDCNC 350 in the Connections area. The course requirements for the Academic Fundamentals, Science, and Cultural Awareness areas are the same as those for a bachelor’s degree. In BYU-Idaho’s Foundations program, students acquire lifechanging skills and knowledge. Courses are both broad and deep. Students develop the ability to think critically, to read and write, to reason quantitatively and scientifically, and to collaborate. They also encounter big and meaty questions about today’s world, and make connections between the course material and other aspects of their lives. In their Foundations courses, students can find not just a job, but a vocation—a purpose and vision of how they can bring about a better world and the skills to help them do it. Foundations is an oasis of learning in a busy and distracted world. We invite students to pause and drink deeply from its waters. Foundations Requirements: Applied Associate’s Degree (A.A.S.) An applied associate’s degree does not transfer to other institutions. It is intended to be a terminal degree, leading to a profession. For an applied associate’s degree, students complete a total of 17 credits in Foundations. Students take 8 credits in the Eternal Truths area: FDREL 121, FDREL 122, FDREL 200, plus two additional FDREL credits of their choice. Additionally, students take the FDENG 101, FDENG 201, and FDMAT 108 courses in the Academic Fundamentals area. Foundations Requirements: Bachelor’s Degree As part of a bachelor’s degree, students will complete 14 credits in Eternal Truths, 9 credits in Academic Fundamentals, 7 credits in Science, 8 credits in Cultural Awareness, and 2 credits in Connections. Eternal Truths: Students complete 14 credit hours of Religion at BYU–Idaho. • FDREL 121 and FDREL 122, Book of Mormon (2 credits each) • FDREL 200, Family Foundations (2 credits) • 4 scripture-based credits (2-credit options include FDREL 211 or FDREL 212, New Testament; FDREL 301 or FDREL 302, Old Testament; FDREL 324 or FDREL 325, Doctrine and Covenants; FDREL 327, Pearl of Great Price; and FDREL 404, Writings of Isaiah) • 4 additional FDREL credits of your choice Academic Fundamentals: All students take the following courses, for a total of 9 credits. • FDENG 101, Writing and Reasoning Foundations (3 credits) • FDENG 201, Advanced Writing and Critical Thinking (3 credits) • FDMAT 108, Mathematical Tools for the Real World (3 credits) Science: Students take 7 credits of Science as part of their Foundations experience. • FDSCI 101, Science Foundations (2 credits) • Students complete 5 credits of the Issues in the Sciences courses (numbered FDSCI 200 or higher) Cultural Awareness: Students complete 8 credits in the Cultural Awareness area: 3 credits of American Foundations and 5 credits of Cultural Awareness or World Foundations. • FDAMF 101, American Foundations (3 credits) • FDCA 101, Foundations of Humanities (3 credits) • Students complete 2 credits of the 200-level Cultural Awareness courses (numbered FDCA 200 or higher) Instead of taking FDCA 101 and a 200-level Cultural Awareness course, students can take the following two courses: • FDWLD 101 and FDWLD 201, World Foundations 31 Foundations Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Transfer Students The number of Religion credits required for a bachelor’s degree is adjusted for students who bring transfer credits to BYU-Idaho: Total # of Transfer Credits 0-14.9 Religion hours Required Subject Matter: If the subject matter has been taken at an Institute or other Church school you may complete the to take from credit requirement by substituting other courses offered in Religious Education at BYU-Idaho until 14 credit hours are earned.

Transfer of Credit from other Universities and Institutes of Religion: Religion credit earned at Church Education System Institutes of Religion or other LDS Church schools will transfer to BYU-Idaho as an equivalent religion course or elective credit so long as the course is taken for credit and such credit is noted on an official transcript. While these religion credits from other LDS Church schools or Institutes of Religion may transfer to fulfill required religion content, they do not satisfy the BYU-Idaho resident religion requirement (religion courses taken from BYUIdaho). Coursework in religious studies from any place other than an LDS Church school or Institute of Religion will not be accepted toward filling the BYU-Idaho religion requirements. Religion courses taken at the BYU Jerusalem Center (during a student’s BYU–Idaho experience) will transfer to fulfill both religion course content and the resident religion requirement. However, such credit does not apply to the completion of the overall BYU-Idaho residency requirement. BYU Jerusalem Center credits earned prior to a student’s enrollment at BYU-Idaho can be used to fulfill religion course content only, but may not be applied to any BYU-Idaho residency requirement. 32 Foundations Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Foundations Substitution Modules Recommended Sequence for Foundations Courses Some courses at BYU-Idaho have been approved as substitutions for Foundations courses. Students will typically opt to take the substitution courses if they are required as part of their major. Students are encouraged to take one religion class each semester, until they have completed the required number of FDREL classes. After that, students are invited to enroll in an Institute of Religion class each semester. Most FDREL courses do not have prerequisites, so they can be taken in any order. For example, a student may take FDREL 122 before taking FDREL 121. Eternal Truths: There are no substitution modules for Religion courses. It is recommended that full-time students enroll in two or possibly three Foundations courses their first semester. These courses might include FDENG 101, FDAMF 101, FDSCI 101, FDCA 101, or FDMAT 108. The remainder of the schedule is used to explore a field of study. Academic Fundamentals: Substitutions can be made for FDENG 201 and FDMAT 108.

The Student Records and Registration Office processes all student records after the Admissions Office has admitted the student. Registration, graduation, transcript requests, and the processing of all forms that affect student academic records are handled by the Student Records and Registration Office. Electronic Devices in the Classroom The BYU-Idaho Learning Model envisions students who have come to class prepared to share ideas-rather than merely receive them. Learning occurs through discussion in which each student listens carefully to the comments of others and seeks the opportunity to add, as inspired, to what is being said. Participating in such a discussion requires careful attention–as though one were with a friend, one-onone. Email as an Official Method of Communication Official university messages to all employees and students may be sent through BYU-Idaho email. Employees and students are expected to regularly check their email accounts for official information. This policy is to ensure that important BYU-Idaho communication is received in a timely and consistent manner. All students and employees are responsible to check their BYU-Idaho email accounts frequently. In order to promote such a learning environment, the University requires, as general policy, that electronic devices be turned off during class time. These devices include laptop computers, cell phones and all other electronic devices. Full-Time Student Status Students must be registered for 12 credit hours per semester to be eligible for certain full-time status benefits. However, some benefits may require more than 12 credits. The full-time equivalency for Block registration is 6 credit hours. Instructors may, for the sake of achieving special learning objectives or to meet individual student needs, authorize the use of specific electronic devices in their classrooms. However, it is recommended that the use of laptops for note-taking not be allowed except for occasional lectures. In the Learning Model environment, thinking about what is being said in the classroom and seeking the opportunity to add a comment is more important than transcribing the discussion. Impressions that come in class can be noted by hand. When class is over, students will find that their handwritten notes, along with ideas brought to remembrance by the Spirit, will allow them to write detailed reflections. Those reflections will be richer because of the student’s active participation in the class discussion. Credit Requirements for Benefits To be eligible for various benefits, students must be enrolled in the hours indicated. • 14 semester credits (and a 3.7 GPA): BYU-Idaho scholarships • 12 semester credits: full Veterans’ benefits, full Pell Grants, selected loans and grants, campus employment, athletic competition, Social Security benefits, running for student government offices or fulfilling major appointive offices in student government, health insurance coverage, international students, Stafford Student Loans, and PLUS loans Username and Password Protection Students and employees should never share their BYU-Idaho username and password with any other person or business. Providing this information to others could potentially compromise the university’s systems as well as student and employee personal information (e.g. social security number, finances, grades). Because providing this information to other people or businesses puts BYU-Idaho at risk, individuals who do so could face dismissal from the university. GPA Requirements for Extracurricular Activities Students must be making satisfactory acedemic progress (2.0 GPA) to represent the school in extracurricular activities. Attendance and Absence from Class Sexual Harassment Students are responsible for class attendance. No absences, whether approved by the University for participation in University-sponsored activities or necessitated by sickness or other personal emergencies, are “excused” in the sense that the student is relieved from class work assigned during the absence. To ensure continuity, students must make up missed work. In most cases, repeated absences will result in a lower grade or failure. Sexual harassment is defined as any unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature. Sexual harassment may include unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors and other verbal, non-verbal, or physical conduct of a sexual nature. Sexual harassment of a student may deny or limit, on the basis of gender, the student’s ability to participate in or receive benefits, services, or opportunities in University programs. BYU-Idaho’s policy against sexual harassment extends not only to employees of the University but to students as well. If sexual harassment or gender-based discrimination is encountered, or if assistance or information related to allegations of sexual harassment is needed, contact the Student Honor Office, Kimball 270, or call (208) 4969300. Exceptions to University Academic Policy Students wishing to appeal any BYU-Idaho academic policy must submit a petition to the Academic Exceptions Committee through the Student Records and Registration Office. These situations may include dropping classes or withdrawing from school after published deadlines. Petitions must be submitted within one year of the semester for which the student is requesting exception to academic policy. The petition process is meant to accommodate students with extenuating circumstances or emergencies beyond their control that may impact their academic records. Only BYU-Idaho academic policies can be appealed; federal guidelines and/or requirements cannot be appealed through this committee. A student can initiate a petition by contacting the Student Records and Registration Office. 41 Academic Policies Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 CONFIDENTIALITY OF STUDENT RECORDS • Major field of study • Degrees and awards received • Participation in officially recognized activities and sports, including height and weight • Previous educational institutions attended • Religious affiliation to local church or congregation • Current class schedule • Photograph • Number of months/semesters enrolled • Class standing (freshman, sophomore, etc.) • Total hours earned • Enrollment status (full-time, part-time, less than half time) • Anticipated future enrollments • Course registrations prior to the beginning of a semester/term • Expected date of graduation • Deferred registration eligibility Notification of Rights under FERPA The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. These rights include: 1. The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days after the University receives a request for access. Students should submit to the registrar, dean, head of the academic department, or other appropriate official, written requests that identify the record(s) they wish to inspect. The University official will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the University official to whom the request was submitted, that official shall advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed. 2. The right to request amending those education records that the student believes are inaccurate or misleading. Students may ask the University to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading. (This does not apply to grade changes.) They should write the University official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the University decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, the University will notify the student of the decision and advise the student of his or her right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing. Additionally, under an agreement with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Church), BYU-Idaho releases the names and birthdates of students to the Church for the purpose of moving the students’ church membership records to the wards in which they will reside during a given term. This data is provided to the Church in a secure, electronic format. Students can block the release of this information by submitting a completed “Request to Withhold Directory Information” form to the Student Records and Registration Office. 6. Students have the right to block the release of their public directory information by completing a “Request to Withhold Directory Information” form at the Student Records and Registration Office. For complete confidentiality, this form must be completed within the first ten days of each semester or term. Students may also modify the display of the public directory information. 3. The right to consent to disclosure of personally identifiable information contained in the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. One exception that permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the University in an administrative, supervisory, academic, research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the University has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility. 7. Parents or guardians of students claimed as dependents on the most recently submitted Federal Income Tax form may have grade reports forwarded to them pursuant to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. Parents of dependent children under the above-described definition must submit a Certificate of Dependence Form in order to receive grade reports. No grade report will be sent to a parent or guardian without proper submission of this form. The Student Records and Registration Office will record Certificate of Dependence forms and send grade reports as requested. Parents of students who have declared themselves as independent are not eligible to receive grade reports. 4. The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the University to comply with the requirements of FERPA. To file a complaint, write to: Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 600 Independence Avenue, SW, Washington, D.C. 20202-4605 Students may waive their independent status by completing the Waiver of Independence Form. Completion of this form authorizes parental access to student grades regardless of the dependency status of a student. 5. The following information is considered directory information and may be made public: • Student name • Home and local address • Telephone numbers • E-mail addresses • Dates of attendance (current and past) Forms are available at the Student Records and Registration Office or online at www.byui.edu/srr/forms. 42 Academic Policies Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 ACADEMIC STANDARDS If students are receiving University or federal financial aid, they should contact the Student Financial Aid Office to verify their eligibility while on Academic Probation. Academic Standing Students’ academic standing at BYU-Idaho is determined at the end of each term by three measures of their work: • 1.0 or higher semester GPA • 2.0 or higher cumulative GPA • 75% semester Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) Academic Suspension Academic Suspension is the suspension of a student’s opportunity to enroll in any academic course at BYU-Idaho for two consecutive semesters, including those offered through Continuing Education, Online Learning and the Internship Office. Academic Suspension is a result of performing below the established BYU-Idaho academic standards after being placed on Academic Probation. Students are classified in one of the following academic standing categories: Good, Warning, Probation, Suspension, or Dismissal. Students on Academic Suspension will be withdrawn from courses and issued a tuition refund if they have pre-registered and/or paid any tuition for a subsequent term. Additionally, students on Academic Suspension are (1) ineligible to live in BYU-Idaho approved student housing and must contact the Housing and Student Living Office; and (2) are ineligible for student employment and must contact their campus employer. Good Academic Standing Students are making satisfactory progress when their cumulative GPA is 2.0 or above, each semester GPA is 1.0 or above, and they earn progress grades for 75 percent of their credits in each semester of enrollment. Please note, however, that too many semester GPAs below a 2.0 will result in a student not meeting the 2.0 cumulative GPA standard. Students on Academic Suspension are expected to return to the University after sitting out the two consecutive semesters immediately following the semester they were suspended. Students who do not enroll in their next on-track semester following their Academic Suspension will be withdrawn from the University and will be required to apply for re-admission. Students choosing to serve an LDS mission immediately following their Academic Suspension will not need to reapply to the University if they have deferred their enrollment in the Admissions Office using the LDS Missionary Admission Deferment Application. Progress and Non-Progress Grades Grades are considered to be either “progress” or “non-progress.” “Progress” grades range from A to D- and P. “Non-progress” grades are F, W, UW and may include NR, T and I. Some progress grades do not meet graduation requirements. Academic Warning Academic Warning is an official notice to students that they are performing below the established BYU-Idaho academic standards. Students on Academic Warning are permitted to continue their enrollment at BYU-Idaho. However, they will need to participate in the Achieving Academic Success Workshop (AASW). (See Academic Standing Chart.) Students who have their Academic Suspension lifted will be placed on Academic Probation until they meet the conditions for Good Academic Standing. Academic Dismissal Students will remain on Academic Warning if they earn a semester GPA of 2.0 or higher but fail to raise their cumulative GPA to 2.0 if they earn less than six credits in their next semester of enrollment, or if they do not complete AASW Also, students who are lifted from Academic Warning but subsequently fail to meet established academic standards in any future semester will be placed on Academic Probation. Academic Dismissal permanently restricts a student’s opportunity to attend BYU-Idaho. Academic Dismissal is a result of performing below the established BYU-Idaho academic standards after being placed on Academic Suspension. Students who wish to continue a formal education will need to seek opportunities elsewhere. Petitioning Academic Standing If students are receiving University or federal financial aid, they should contact the Student Financial Aid Office to verify their eligibility while on Academic Warning. Students may not petition Academic Warning or Academic Probation (including the 12-credit enrollment limit) because these standings do not prevent their ability to enroll in courses or access University resources. Academic Probation Academic Probation is an official notice to students that they have performed below the established BYU-Idaho academic standards for a second time (after having been on Academic Warning). Students on Academic Probation are permitted to continue their enrollment at BYU-Idaho. However, they will need to participate in the AASW and will be restricted to 12 credits while on Academic Probation. (See Academic Standing Chart.) Students who feel they have extenuating circumstances that justify an exception to the Academic Standards Policy may petition their Academic Suspension or Academic Dismissal to the Academic Standards Committee. The Academic Standards Committee may choose to allow an exception, stipulating certain requirements the student must meet, after which the student may be considered for re-enrollment to BYU-Idaho. For example, the student may be required to earn credits at another university to demonstrate academic ability. Exceptions are entirely at the discretion of the Academic Standards Committee. Students will remain on Academica Probation if they earn a semester GPA of 2.0 or higher but fail to raise their cumulative GPA to 2.0, if they earn less than six credits in their next semester of enrollment, or if they do not complete AASW. Students who returen to Good Academic Standing but subsequently fail to meet established academic standards in any future semester will be placed on Academic Suspension while on Academic Probation.

Academic Policies Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 ACADEMIC RECORDS • Resident:Credit awarded for a BYU-Idaho course and recorded on the official academic transcript as BYUI-Idaho credit, including online and distance courses. • Points: The total number of grade points earned in a term or on a cumulative basis. Grading System Grades are determined by each instructor based upon an evaluation of all assigned and completed coursework. Classroom/laboratory participation, mastery of subject matter, and promise of continuing success in sequential courses in related fields are all criteria used to evaluate progress. The following table indicates each grade variant at BYU-Idaho with its equivalent grade points: • “A” represents outstanding understanding, application, and integration of subject material and extensive evidence of original thinking, skillful use of concepts, and ability to analyze and solve complex problems. Demonstrates diligent application of Learning Model principles, including initiative in serving other students. • “B” represents considerable/significant understanding, application, and incorporation of the material that would prepare a student to be successful in next level courses, graduate school, or employment. The student participates in the Learning Model as applied in the course. • “C” represents sufficient understanding of subject matter. The student demonstrates minimal initiative to be prepared for class. Sequenced courses could be attempted, but mastering new materials might prove challenging. The student participates only marginally in the Learning Model. • “D” represents poor performance and initiative to learn, understand, and apply course materials. Retaking a course or remediation may be necessary to prepare for additional instruction in this subject matter. • “F” represents failure in the course. • “P” represents passing the course and is not calculated into the GPA. • “W” represents withdrawal from the class and is not calculated into the GPA. However, if the class is dropped during the first 22 calendar days of a semester, or the first 15 calendar days of a block, no annotation will be made on the permanent academic record. • “UW” represents an unofficial withdrawal which is given to a student who meets the following criteria: Did not complete proper withdrawal procedures; has record of non-attendance that began before the last date to withdraw from individual courses without grade earned; and did not complete any work, tests, or class-related assignments after attendance ceased. The “UW” is calculated into the GPA as a failing grade value. (0.0) • “I” is a conditional grade. (See “Incomplete Grades.”) • “NR” represents the grade was not reported by the instructor. A student receiving a “NR” grade should contact the instructor to request that a valid grade be submitted to the Student Records and Registration Office. • “T” represents a temporary grade that is assigned for courses that do not fall within normal academic deadlines of any given semester. (e.g., internships) • “IP” indicates that the course is in progress. • “AU” indicates a course taken for audit. One Credit of A AB+ B BC+ C CD+ D DF UW P I IP W NR T AU Equals Grade Points 4.0 3.7 3.4 3.0 2.7 2.4 2.0 1.7 1.4 1.0 0.7 0.0 0.0 * * * * * * ** * Does not affect the GPA calculation, but may impact Satisfactory Academic progress ** Does not affect the GPA calculation, does not impact Satisfactory Academic Progress, and does not appear on the official transcript. Incomplete Grades An incomplete grade (“I”) is a conditional grade only granted under the following circumstances: 1. Extenuating circumstances (serious illness, personal injury, death in immediate family, etc.) that hindered class work, and occurred after the tenth week of a semester or the fourth week of a block. 2. The student must have a passing grade at the time of petitioning for the incomplete grade. It is not a substitute for a failing grade. Therefore, an incomplete grade cannot be granted if a student is failing a class and wants additional time to submit make-up work in order to improve a grade. 3. The student must be able to complete the remaining work on an individual basis with the instructor. Re-enrollment or attendance in all or part of the same course during a subsequent semester cannot be required as part of the contract. The general length of time to fulfill the requirements of an incomplete contract is one additional semester. 4. Instructor approval is mandatory. Incomplete contracts are granted at the instructor’s discretion. Credit Definitions • Attempted: The total number of credits in which a student has registered in a term or on a cumulative basis. • Earned: The total number of credits completed with a progress grade in a term or on a cumulative basis. • Passed: The total number of credits earned that do not factor into a term or cumulative GPA. • Quality: The total number of credits earned that factor into a term or cumulative GPA. 45 Academic Policies Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Repeatable Courses Academic Renewal Repeatable courses allow a class to be taken two or more times for additional credit. Most classes at BYU-Idaho are not repeatable for credit. Repeatable courses are generally designated with an “R” at the end of the course code (ex: BIO 398R). Departments establish the maximum number of credits or times a course can be repeated. A repeated course does not replace the former grade or credit of a previously completed course. Approval to enroll in a repeatable course for the purpose of replacing a previous credit and grade must be obtained from the Academic Exceptions Committee prior to registering for the course. Under certain circumstances, BYU-Idaho allows students to petition for Academic Renewal. If approved, this eliminates previous poor academic work either at BYU-Idaho or elsewhere, from the student’s academic record. Before petitioning for Academic Renewal, the following conditions must be met: 1. A minimum of four years must have elapsed since the most recent coursework to be disregarded was completed. 2. The student must have completed at least one semester at BYU-Idaho as a full-time student (12 credits or more) with a grade point average of at least 2.5. 3. The semester(s) to be considered for Academic Renewal must have a GPA below 2.0. Retake Courses Retake courses replace the credit and grade of a previously completed equivalent course even if the previous grade was higher. The most recently completed course is calculated into the GPA, earned credits, and degree requirements. Previous courses remain on the transcript and are designated as retake courses and will not fulfill degree requirements. If Academic Renewal is approved, the permanent academic record is annotated to indicate that no work taken during the disregarded semester(s), even if satisfactory, shall be applied toward graduation requirements or GPA calculation. However, all work remains on the record to ensure a true and accurate academic history. Academic Renewal may impact a student’s retaken courses. Students are allowed a maximum of four retakes during their BYUIdaho experience. Retakes occur when retaking BYU-Idaho courses previously completed at this University. When a University course is discontinued the opportunity to retake that course is no longer available. Information regarding discontinued courses and their replacement courses, where applicable, is available in the respective academic department sections of the University catalog. Students may contact the Student Records and Registration Office for clarification on discontinued courses before attempting a retake. This policy may not be used for individual courses. Students should also be aware that this is a BYU-Idaho policy and other institutions are not obligated to honor it. Academic Renewal may be applied only once during an academic career at BYU-Idaho. Once approved, Academic Renewal may not be reversed. Verifications A verification is proof of enrollment. It shows the student’s personal information with name and current dates of attendance. It is used for insurance purposes, loan deferments, scholarships, employers, government and legal offices, etc. Free electronic verifications of enrollment can be obtained by students at any time through the National Student Clearinghouse (www.byui.edu/verification). Parents and interested third parties can obtain electronic verifications for a nominal fee at www.studentclearinghouse.org. Exeeding the maximum number of retakes does not prevent students from registering for course they have previously completed. Retakes impact the term and cumulative calculations on the transcript but do not affect a student’s ability to enroll in a course. BYU-Idaho courses cannot be replaced by equivalent courses from other institutions. Exceptions must be approved by the Academic Exceptions Committee. Students who transfer must recognize that a transfer institution may not accept the retake course per this definition. GPA verification requests must be submitted in writing with the student’s signature due to FERPA privacy laws. Such requests can be submitted to the Student Records and Registration Office by letter, e-mail, fax, and in person. The student’s name, ID number, and an address, email, or fax number where the verification is to be sent are required. Presentation of student identification at the Student Records and Registration Office is required. Social Security numbers are not listed unless requested by the student. Pass/Fail Courses BYU-Idaho offers a limited number of pass/fail courses. Students in these classes receive no letter grade; instead, they either pass or fail depending on whether or not they have met the course criteria. All pass credits are earned but are not included in GPA calculations. Courses designated as letter grade cannot be changed to pass/fail, and courses designated as pass/fail cannot be changed to letter grade. Verification of a student’s directory information, such as dates of attendance or degrees earned, can be verbally obtained by contacting the Student Records and Registration Office. Special Examinations Transcript Requests Permission to earn credit by special examination must be obtained from the applicable Department. Special exams may require a fee. Official academic transcript requests are made online at my.byui. edu. Transcripts may not be ordered by phone, e-mail, paper or fax. Transcripts can be requested by both current and former BYU-Idaho students by logging into their current or former student account. When requesting a transcript, students and former students may choose a certified electronic PDF transcript delivered within minutes of placing an order. Official electronic PDF transcripts will be provided at no cost. Students and former students may also choose a paper copy to be sent by US Postal mail or overnight delivery for a fee. Transcripts may be sent immediately, at a later date, or after grades are posted at the end of each term. Official transcripts will not be released until all BYU-Idaho debts have been paid in full. For more information, visit www.byui.edu/transcripts. Vertical Credit Subject to Department Chair approval, students who have earned a grade of “C” or better in a class taken at BYU-Idaho for which there are prerequisite course(s) they have not taken, may be given credit and a “pass” grade for the prerequisite course(s). The Vertical Credit will be applied to the same semester in which the qualifications were met. To apply, students must consult the appropriate Department Chair. If approved, an application may be picked up at the Student Records and Registration Office where a credit fee will be assessed. The fee is $15 for 0.5 to 3.0 credits, with an additional $5 per credit thereafter. Although vertical credit counts toward total credit requirements for graduation, no grade is given toward GPA computation. 46 Academic Policies Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 REGISTRATION If a student does not add the course by the 24-hour registration deadline, the student will be dropped from the waitlist, and the seat will be made available to the next student on the waitlist. Students who do not register for a waitlisted section by the registration deadline or who accidentally drop themselves from a waitlisted section will need to re-add themselves to the bottom of the waitlist. Student Records and Registration cannot re-add students to their original waitlist position. Class Registration Student registration for classes is by priority according to credit level. Credits earned plus currently enrolled BYU-Idaho credits are calculated into the priority registration credit count. If one misses their designated registration time, they may still register for classes, but risk less availability of class selection. Students register for all classes offered during the semester regardless of the starting date of the class (e.g., second block classes). Students starting on the second block of a semester register at the same time as all other students. Students may waitlist multiple sections of the same course. However, if a student waitlists a section and then registers for a different section of the same course, the student will be systematically dropped from all other waitlisted sections of that course. Students will be notified of adjustments to the registration schedule and processes through official BYU-Idaho communications methods. Amount of Credits per Term Students should be aware of classes with special requirements such as proper major selection, credit limit, and prerequisite course completion. Tuition is not refunded if a student drops below a full-time credit load, unless the student completely withdraws from all classes by the established deadline. Sixteen credit hours per semester are recommended for full-time students. Twenty-one credit hours is the recommended maximum. Students must obtain permission from the Student Records and Registration Office to take more than 21 credits per semester or 10 credits per block. Students must demonstrate a successful academic history to qualify. All individuals participating in BYU-Idaho classes need to be properly admitted and enrolled to do so. No individual should be allowed to sit-in on a few classes or for an entire semester without first registering for the course—whether for credit or audit. Compliance with this process is necessary to ensure each student’s academic experience is accurately recorded and to ensure that only properly admitted and eligible students are participating in University courses and utilizing University resources. All properly registered students, for credit or for audit, will appear on the course’s class roll. Class Periods Regular semester class periods last 60 or 90 minutes. Regular semester lab periods run either two or three hours. For every semester credit hour, two hours of preparation outside of class are required per class hour per week. For classes with labs, two or three hours of lab work per week are also required. Wait Listing Registration and Payment Deadlines During course registration, if a section of a desired course has filled, students can add themselves—in order— to an electronic list. A waitlist allows the first student on the list to have priority registration into the course if a seat becomes available. Waitlisting is offered as a convenience to students during the registration process. Adding oneself to a waitlist does not guarantee a seat in the course. The following deadlines are important for students to keep in mind. Refer to the University Catalog and Class Schedule for specific dates for each semester. Remember that payments must be made to the Cashier’s Office by the deadline date: 1. Final Payment deadline late charge is 5% of unpaid and related charges. 2. Insurance Payment Deadline. 3. Campus Housing payments. (Refer to housing contract.) 4. Classes dropped after this day will appear on the transcript with a “W” grade. 5. Last day to drop full semester classes. 6. Last day to withdraw from school without receiving grades earned. The availability of a waitlist is at the discretion of the instructor, who may choose not to offer a waitlist. Students are limited in the number of credits they may waitlist each term based on their student type: Student Type (Subprogram) Waitlist Credit Limit • DAY (on-track or off-track) 12 credits • Online (ONLN) 12 credits • Continuing Education (CTED) 12 credits • Non-matriculating (NONM) 9 credits • Part-time (PART) 9 credits • High School Concurrent Enrollment 6 credits Adding and Dropping Sections Changes in registration can be made using the BYU-Idaho online registration system. If a student wishes to add a class that is full, he or she may contact the course instructor, and the instructor may, at the instructor’s discretion, authorize the student to add. Students are responsible for adding and dropping courses and maintaining their own class schedules. See Academic Calendar for specific registration and academic deadlines. Students must meet the same conditions to waitlist a course that they would have to meet to register for the course. Students who have not met the course prerequisites, requirements, or other conditions, or who have holds on their account, will not be allowed to waitlist. The waitlist process will not automatically add students directly into a waitlisted section. Students are responsible to add themselves to waitlisted sections if a seat becomes available. Students will be notified via their BYU-Idaho email account that they have 24 hours to add themselves to the waitlisted section. These notifications may be sent any time, day or night, including weekends and holidays. Students are responsible to closely monitor any waitlisted section to prevent missing their opportunity to add a waitlisted course. 47 Academic Policies Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Audit Classes Degree Progress Departments have the right to refuse to allow students to audit individual courses. The Department Chair must report all courses that students may not audit to the Student Records and Registration Office. Audit restrictions will remain in effect until they are removed by the Department Chair. Degree Progress is meant to encourage all degree-seeking students to make reasonable progress in planning for and completing an undergraduate degree at BYU-Idaho. New freshmen and transfer students are encouraged to develop a Graduation Plan with the Academic Discovery Center or assigned Academic Discovery Satellite Center upon admission to BYU-Idaho. This plan will serve as a tool in completing degree requirements and working towards graduation. Students must first register for the class for credit and then contact the Student Records and Registration Office to change the course to audit. Generally, students may not audit a Foundations or online section. Students who fail to maintain satisfactory Degree Progress may be restricted from registration and be required to meet with their satellite advising center. Students who consistently do not make satisfactory Degree Progress may forfeit their opportunity to continue their academic career at BYU-Idaho. Tuition for audit classes is assessed on the same basis as for credit classes. Students may not change from credit to audit after the deadline to drop a course without earning a “W.” Students wishing to change from audit to credit after the deadline to drop a course without earning a “W” must receive instructor approval. Change of Major Students are encouraged to select a major early in their academic program to effectively plan towards graduation. Students change majors by going to the Academic Discovery Center or through the assigned Academic Discovery Satellite Center. Students should carefully assess the impact of the major change by utilizing the Degree Audit report and conferring with their faculty mentor. Previously approved waivers and substitutions may possibly not transfer to a newly selected major because of the individuality of the major requirements. Students who audit a class are not responsible for attendance, daily preparations or examinations, and no grade is reported or recorded on the permanent record. An “I” grade may not be made up by repeating the class as an audit. Registered students who drop all credit section(s) and only have audit section(s) remaining are considered withdrawn from the University effective the last drop date of the non-audit section(s). Students will need to re-apply through the Admissions Office for the next semester. Compliance with deadlines is required, unless a deferment is obtained. Students with 60 or more earned credits will not be allowed to change a major without submitting a petition to the Academic Standards Committee. The petition must illustrate the ability to efficiently complete the newly selected major. An attached graduation plan indicating the remaining courses and planned schedule is required. To petition a change of major with over 60 credits earned, students should contact the Academic Discovery Satellite Center. Instructor-Initiated Drops For students in courses requiring an audition, the instructor will initiate a drop for those students not selected. These administrative drops will be processed without penalty and must be filed by the instructor with the Student Records and Registration Office no later than the last day to add or drop classes. (See Academic Deadlines.) Earning Muliple Majors BYU-Idaho does not allow students to declare or earn multiple majors, even if all coursework is complete. Students who do not attend the first two classes (or first evening class) or who do not participate in an online course before the end of lesson one may be dropped from the course and replaced with another student. Requests for drops should be submitted no later than the deadline to drop without receiving a W. In some instances, such action may jeopardize financial aid or health insurance eligibility. In such cases, BYU-Idaho assumes no responsibility. Students who have attended at least one class period are not subject to this policy. Students who have registered but have no intention of successfully completing a course should officially drop the course rather than risk receiving an “F” or “UW” by assuming the instructor will process an administrative drop. Earning an Additional Minor Requests to declare or earn minors that are not required by a bachelor degree program are typically considered only if the minor can be completed withing the 120 credit limit. Withdrawal from School and Deferments Beginning the first day of classes, any student who drops all classes to a zero credit level will be considered withdrawn from the University. Dropping all classes with only audit classes remaining will also be considered withdrawn. Students who drop all classes via the online registration system are warned of the withdrawal status implications and informed of their responsibilities. Students may contact the Student Records and Registration Office for assistance. Students who have not satisfied the minimum grade requirement for a pre-requisite of a course may be dropped from the section by the instructor or department chair. These administrative drops must be filed by the instructor with the Student Records and Registration Office no later than the drop deadline (last day to drop sections without receiving a “W” grade on the transcript). (See Academic Deadlines.) The withdrawal date is the date the student drops to a zero credit level, unless otherwise approved by the Student Records and Registration Office. Students may not withdraw from BYU-Idaho after the last day to withdraw from school without receiving grades earned and will have those grades recorded on their academic records. (See Academic Calendar.) Students are academically and financially responsible for all courses for which they are registered. Ultimately, it is the student’s responsibility to drop his or her own class using the online registration system. Students may contact the Student Records and Registration Office for assistance. 48 Academic Policies Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 On-track students who withdraw will be considered as discontinuing their attendance at BYU-Idaho and will lose their continuing student status unless they apply for and are granted deferral status by the Admissions Office. Students who withdraw and do not receive a deferment must apply for re-admission to BYU-Idaho. Students may not withdraw from a semester in which they have already earned a grade for a course, including first block classes. TRANSFER EVALUATION The available deferment types are as follows: Continuing Student, Missionary, and Medical. Following are the conditions to qualify for each of the deferment types. 1. Continuing Student Deferment. This deferment is for one semester only. Students must enroll in their next on-track semester following the deferred semester to maintain their admission status. a. Be admitted and remain admissible as a regular day school student. b. Attend the most recent on-track semester prior to requesting the deferment. c. Submit the “Continuing Student Enrollment Deferment Application” before the last day to withdraw completely from school and receive “W” grades and not the grades earned. For the specific semester’s date, please see the Academic Calendar. 2. Missionary Deferment. a. Be admitted and remain admissible as a regular day school student. b. Enter the MTC during the semester immediately following the last semester of enrollment or prior to the first semester of enrollment after being admitted. c. Submit the “LDS Missionary Enrollment Deferment Application” with a copy of the mission call after receiving the mission call and before entering the MTC. d. Complete a full, honorable mission. 3. Medical Deferment. a. Be admitted and remain admissible as a regular day school student. b. Attend the on-track semesters immediately prior to and following the deferred semester. c. Have a verifiable medical condition that prevents enrollment. d. Submit the “Medical Enrollment Deferment Application” with a doctor’s statement to the Admissions Office. Transfer to BYU-Idaho Transfer from BYU-Idaho While BYU-Idaho does make an effort to establish articulation agreements with other colleges and universities, students who are considering transferring to another college or university should review that institution’s transfer guidelines. BYU-Idaho generally accepts college level transfer credits from regionally-accredited colleges and universities. Courses from institutions that are not regionally-accredited are generally not transferable to BYU-Idaho. Generally, courses completed 10 or more years ago will be accepted as elective credit. Only transfer courses with a grade of C- or higher are eligible for transfer consideration. Additionally, transfer credit may be used to satisfy degree requirements but will not be calculated into the BYUIdaho GPA. Transfer courses considered to be out of harmony with established principles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will not be accepted by BYU-Idaho for credit consideration. Full Disclosure of Transfer Schools Failure to submit official transcripts to BYU-Idaho from all institutions you have attended or are currently attending, both U.S. and international, may result in disciplinary action including dismissal from BYU-Idaho. Official Transcripts BYU-Idaho considers evaluation of courses only with an official college or university transcript. Official transcripts are transcripts mailed in a sealed envelope from the institution or through a secured electronic transmission. BYU-Idaho will not evaluate transcripts submitted via any method deemed unsecure by the University. Transfer Students with Degrees Transfer students who have been awarded an Associate Degree (not including Applied Associate Degrees) from a regionally-accredited college or university will be viewed as having met most of the Foundations requirements for a Bachelor’s Degree. However, transfer students are still responsible to meet all other graduation and university requirements, including courses that are deemed essential to the BYU-Idaho experience. Courses for students who have not completed a transfer Associate Degree will be evaluated on a courseby-course basis. Transfer Associate Degrees that do not include a broad liberal arts curriculum may be evaluated on a course-by-course basis. Student Military Service Enrolled BYU-Idaho students called into active service in the armed forces of the United States during the course of an academic term receive assistance and exceptions with regard to withdrawing from courses and receiving tuition refunds. This allowance does not apply to students ordered to active duty in another country’s armed forces. Students seeking this allowance should provide a copy of their official military orders to the Student Records and Registration Office for assistance. Concurrent/Dual Enrollment Programs Students may receive credit for courses previously taken through an early college program if those courses were administered from a regionally-accredited college or university and are recorded on an official college or university transcript. Official transcripts must be sent to BYU-Idaho to be considered for transferability. Concurrent or dual enrollment courses sent on a high school transcript will not be considered for transferability. Online Courses Offered to Indiana Residents BYU-Idaho is authorized by: The Indiana Board for Proprietary Education; 101 W. Ohio St., Suite 670, Indianapolis, IN 46204-1984 Advanced Placement (AP) AP scores must be on an official Advanced Placement transcript. Scores on high school transcripts will not be accepted. Students who complete an AP exam with a score of 3 or above may receive University credit in that subject area according to the following list: *See AP Chart immediately following this section. 49 Academic Policies Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Technical or Vocational Courses Religion courses taken at the BYU Jerusalem Center (during a student’s BYU–Idaho experience) will transfer to fulfill both religion course content and the resident religion requirement. However, such credit does not apply to the completion of the overall BYU-Idaho residency requirement. BYU Jerusalem Center credits earned prior to a student’s enrollment at BYU-Idaho can be used to fulfill religion course content only, but may not be applied to any BYU-Idaho residency requirement. Generally, technical, vocational, or occupational courses are not transferable to BYU-Idaho. International Baccalaureate (IB) IB courses must be on an official International Baccalaureate transcript. Students who complete IB courses with a grade of 5 or above may receive University credit in that subject area according to the following approved list: *See IB Chart immediately following this section. College Level Examination Program (CLEP) Earned credit hours will be posted as CLEP credit with a “P” grade. Such credit may not be converted to a letter grade or correlated with an existing BYU-Idaho course. Students may receive University credit for CLEP exams as specified by the following list: *See CLEP chart immediately following this section. International Credits Transcripts from international schools will not be evaluated until the following conditions are met: 1. The student is an accepted student at BYU-Idaho. 2. The student provides a transcript and course description of classes completed. 3. All transcripts and course descriptions must be in English. Translated versions will only be accepted when one of the following conditions are met: a. The sending university provides an English translation. b. The transcripts are translated by a qualified, independent third-party (not family) translator. c. A private credential evaluation company is used. 4. The student’s institution is recognized by its country’s governing board as an accredited institution, and it is similar in nature to a college or university in the United States. Credits from institutions primarily focused on vocational and technical training are generally not transferable. Once conditions are met, the Student Records and Registration Office will evaluate courses for equivalency at BYU-Idaho. Courses without an equivalent BYU-Idaho course are generally not transferable. All grades are changed to pass or fail grades. English classes taken outside of a United States university will not be accepted for meeting English requirements at BYU-Idaho. Military Credit BYU-Idaho awards military credit based on the American Council of Education (ACE) recommendations found in the Guide to the Evaluation of Education Experiences in the Armed Services. Military courses without an equivalent BYU-Idaho course will not be transferred to the University for credit consideration. Transfer of Credit from other Universities and Institutes of Religion Religion credit earned at Church Education System Institutes of Religion or other LDS Church schools will transfer to BYU-Idaho as an equivalent religion course or elective credit so long as the course is taken for credit and such credit is noted on an official transcript. While these religion credits from other LDS Church schools or Institutes of Religion may transfer to fulfill required religion content, they do not satisfy the BYU-Idaho resident religion requirement (religion courses taken from BYU-Idaho).

then said: “Brother Maeser, I want you to remember that you ought not to teach even the alphabet or the multiplication tables without the Spirit of God. That is all. God bless you. Goodbye.” -Brigham Young 53 University Standards Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Principles of Personal Honor Furthermore, a student is not in good honor code standing if his or her ecclesiastical endorsement has either lapsed or been withdrawn, or if the Student Honor Office has placed a hold on the student’s records. All students are required to remain in good honor code standing once admitted to BYU-Idaho, whether they are on or off campus, on or off track. “True at all Times” • Personal honor is integrity in fulfilling commitments, responsibilities, and covenants. • Personal honor begins with willing obedience and is fully developed when we consistently govern ourselves by true principles. • Personal honor increases spiritual strength through the ministry of the Holy Ghost. • Personal honor is central to every aspect of our lives, including the BYU-Idaho experience. • Personal honor brings us joy and happiness; deepens our desire to love, serve, and lift others; and ultimately helps us to become more like the Savior. Individuals who are on any sex-offender registry are not eligible for enrollment at BYU-Idaho. Registered sex offenders will not be allowed employment at BYU-Idaho nor other access to the campus. University Standards and Policies The University Standards are designed to support and strengthen the Honor Code. Included are standards and policies on each of the following: (1) academic honesty, (2) student life, (3) dress and grooming, (4) continuing ecclesiastical endorsement, and (5) church attendance. The below standards are not inclusive of all possible violations of the Honor Code. Violations of university standards and policies may result in Student Honor action that may include: counseling and education, warning, steady upward course, probation, suspension or expulsion from the university, and banning from access to university properties. CES Honor Code Brigham Young University-Idaho and other Church Education System (CES) institutions (Brigham Young University, Brigham Young University-Hawaii, and LDS Business College) exist to educate students in an atmosphere consistent with the ideals and principles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. These institutions select employees and students who voluntarily live the principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Living by those standards is a condition of employment and admission. Individuals who are not members of the Church are also expected to maintain the same standards of honor, integrity, morality, and consideration of others. By enrolling at BYU-Idaho, or accepting appointment as an employee, individuals show their commitment to observe the Honor Code standards approved by the Board of Trustees “at all times ... and in all places” (Mosiah 18:9). 1. Academic Honesty BYU-Idaho students should seek to be completely honest in all their dealings. They should complete their own work and be evaluated for that work. They should avoid academic dishonesty and misconduct in all its forms, including but not limited to plagiarism, fabrication, falsification, and cheating. Plagiarism Intentional plagiarism is the deliberate act of representing the words, ideas, or data of another as one’s own without providing proper attribution to the original author through quotation, reference, or footnote. “We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men.... If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things” (13th Article of Faith) . As a matter of personal commitment, faculty, staff, and students of BYU, BYU-Hawaii, BYU-Idaho, and LDS Business College seek to demonstrate in daily living on and off campus those moral virtues encompassed in the gospel of Jesus Christ, and will: • Be honest • Live a chaste and virtuous life • Obey the law and all campus policies • Use clean language • Respect others • Abstain from alcoholic beverages, tobacco, tea, coffee and sub stance abuse • Participate regularly in church services • Observe Dress and Grooming Standards • Encourage others in their commitment to comply with the Honor Code Inadvertent plagiarism involves the inappropriate, but non-deliberate, use of another’s words, ideas, or data without proper attribution. Although not a violation of the Honor Code, it is a form of academic misconduct for which an instructor can impose appropriate academic sanctions. Students who are in doubt as to whether they are providing proper attribution have the responsibility to consult with their instructor and obtain guidance. Plagiarism may occur with respect to unpublished as well as published material. Examples include: • Direct Plagiarism: the verbatim copying of an original source without acknowledging the source • Paraphrased Plagiarism: the paraphrasing of ideas from another without attribution, causing a reader to mistake these ideas for the writer’s own • Plagiarism Mosaic: the borrowing of words, ideas, or data from an original source and blending this original material with one’s own writing, without acknowledging the source • Insufficient Acknowledgment: the partial or incomplete attribution of words, ideas, or data from an original source Good Honor Code Standing When a student is in good honor code standing, they have the blessings of protection, preparation and peace. It also means a student’s conduct is consistent with the Principles of Personal Honor, the CES Honor Code, The Family: A Proclamation to the World, For the Strength of Youth, the University Standards and Policies, and the principles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, both on and off campus. Students must be in good honor code standing to be admitted to, continue enrollment at, and graduate from BYU-Idaho. Students not in good honor code standing may be suspended from the university. Excommunication, disfellowshipment, or disaffiliation from the Church will automatically result in the loss of good honor code standing. Fabrication or Falsification Fabrication or falsification occurs when a student invents or distorts the origin or content of information used as authority. Examples include: • Citing a source that does not exist. Citing information from a source that is not included in the source for which credit is given • Citing a source for a secondary proposition that it doesn’t support 54 University Standards Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 • Citing a bibliography source when it was neither consulted nor cited in the body of the paper • Intentionally distorting the meaning or applicability of data • Inventing data or statistical results to support conclusions the name, incident, and action taken. If the occurrence is sufficiently egregious, or if a pattern of dishonesty or misconduct is discovered, the Student Honor Office may take additional action, based upon the nature of the violation. If a student disagrees with the determination or action and is unable to resolve the matter to the mutual satisfaction of the student and the instructor, he or she may have it reviewed through the university’s grievance process. Cheating A student cheats when he or she attempts to give the appearance of a level of knowledge or skill that has not been obtained. Examples include: • Copying from another person’s work during an examination or while completing an assignment • Allowing someone to copy work that is not his or her own during an examination or while completing an assignment • Using unauthorized materials during an examination or while completing an assignment • Collaborating on an examination or assignment without authorization • Taking an examination or completing an assignment for another, or permitting another to take an examination or to complete an assignment that is not his or her own 2. Student Life Camping and Overnight Activities Overnight coed activities that are not university sponsored such as spending the night together at the St. Anthony Sand Dunes, camping, staying in motels or cabins, and similar activities are prohibited. No overnight guests of the opposite sex are permitted at any time in single-student housing. Computer Crime Any person who knowingly and without permission accesses or attempts to access any campus computer, computer system, computer program, or network without prior authorization is committing computer fraud. Other Academic Misconduct Other academic misconduct includes other academically dishonest, deceitful, or inappropriate acts which are intentionally committed. Examples include: • Inappropriately providing or receiving information or academic work so as to gain unfair advantage over others • Planning with another to commit any act of academic dishonesty • Attempting to gain an unfair academic advantage for oneself or another by bribery or by any act of offering, giving, receiving, or soliciting anything of value to another for such purpose • Changing or altering grades or other official educational records • Obtaining or providing to another a test or answers to a test that has not been administered • Breaking and entering into a building or office for the purpose of obtaining unauthorized materials • Continuing work on an examination or assignment after the allocated time has elapsed • Submitting the same work for more than one class without disclosure and approval • Getting equal credit on group assignments when equal work was not done Copyright The use of university-owned computers, databases, servers, or the BYU-Idaho website or intranet for the storage, distribution, sharing, viewing, or transmission of copyrighted materials without permission is prohibited. Curfew and Quiet Hours Students should be in their own apartments by midnight Saturday through Thursday nights and 1:00 a.m. on Friday nights. Apartment visitors must leave in time to arrive at their own apartments by curfew. Quiet hours are from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m. daily and all day on Sunday. Disruptive Behavior Brigham Young University Idaho is committed to provide a safe and secure academic, cultural, social and spiritual environment consistent with the Church Educational System Honor Code. Disruptive behavior is any behavior that adversely impacts the educational process and environment of other students, the community or the administrative functions of the university on or off campus. Procedures for Handling Academic Dishonesty Instructors are responsible to establish and communicate to students their expectations of behavior with respect to academic honesty and conduct in the course. The instructor will be responsible to investigate any incident of academic dishonesty or misconduct, determine the circumstances, and take appropriate action. Examples of appropriate action include but are not limited to the following: • Reprimanding the student orally or in writing • Requiring work affected by the academic dishonesty to be redone • Administering a lower or failing grade on the affected assignment, test, or course Drugs and Alcohol The use or possession of substances, drink, drug, chemical or dangerous practice that is used to produce a “high” or other artificial effect that may harm your body or mind and associated paraphernalia is prohibited at all times.(For The Strength of Youth pg 26) The university may disclose the violation to the student’s parent/guardian. This can be made with or without the students’ consent if students are less than 21 years of age at the time of disclosure. E-mail Students agree not to share their password, send spam mail or any inappropriate material (including messages of a harassing or salacious nature), use their account for commercial purposes or any form of advertising. Students must not enter the e-mail accounts of others nor send e-mail messages posing as someone they are not. Students must not harvest and provide lists of BYU-Idaho e-mail accounts to anyone. Refer student to the Student Honor Office. The Student Honor Office will complete an independent investigation and take appropriate action. If the incident involves violation of a public law, e.g., breaking and entering into an office or stealing an examination, the act should be reported to University Security. Both suspected and proven violations of the Academic Honesty Policy should be reported to the Student Honor Office, detailing 55 University Standards Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Entertainment and the Media For the Strength of Youth teaches us to, “choose wisely when using media, because whatever you read, listen to, or look at has an effect on you. Select only media that uplifts you. Do not attend, view, or participate in anything that is vulgar, immoral, violent, or pornographic in any way. Do not participate in anything that presents immorality or violence as acceptable.” Take care that your use of media and entertainment does not dull your sensitivity to the Spirit or interfere with your personal relationships with others. “Do not communicate anything over the Internet or through text that would be inappropriate to share in person. Obey the laws that govern sharing music, movies, and other copyrighted items” (pgs 11-13). See Apartment Living Standards at http://www.byui.edu/housing/aboutapproved-housing/apartment-living-standards Pets No pets of any kind are allowed on campus or in approved housing. See Apartment Living Standards at www.byui.edu/housing/policies/ apartment-living-standards. Pornography Pornography in any form is not permitted. Use of pornography is a serious sin and can lead to other sexual transgression. Pornography in all forms is especially dangerous and addictive. Avoid pornography at all costs. (For the Strength of Youth, pg 12) Right of Access BYU-Idaho is a private institution. Therefore all grounds, walkways, roads, parking areas, and buildings owned by the university are private property. The university retains the right and legal authority to limit or otherwise restrict access to the campus for any reason it may deem appropriate. As an educational institution, BYU-Idaho affirms its right to guard or protect employees, students, and guests from interferences that would disrupt any class, program, activity, event, or permitted function. This includes stalking or other conduct that is threatening or disruptive to students, employees, or guests on campus properties. Personal Carry Firearms and Weapons at BYU-Idaho BYU-Idaho prohibits the possession or use of personal firearms and weapons on property owned or controlled by the university, including on or off campus BYU-Idaho approved housing (see Idaho Code 183302C, SB1254), and at programs sponsored by BYU-Idaho, which occur off of campus property (i.e. Discovery, travel related to academic studies, student activities, etc.). For the purpose of this policy, firearms or weapons include any device that can expel a projectile, and/or other dangerous weapons, including knives, explosives, or other items that, in their intended use, are capable of inflicting injury. Because these items pose a clear risk to the persons and property on BYU-Idaho’s campus, violation of this policy will result in appropriate disciplinary sanctions. Sexual Harassment, Sexual Assault, Stalking, and Violence Sexual harassment, sexual assault, including sexual violence, domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, and any other sex crimes are not tolerated at BYU-Idaho on or off campus. Sexual harassment and sexual assault refers to unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature. Sexual harassment and sexual assault may include 1) unwelcome sexual advances, 2) requests for sexual favors, and 3) other verbal, non-verbal, or physical conduct of a sexual nature. Sexual harassment may also include denying or limiting, on the basis of sex, the student’s ability to participate in or receive benefits, services, or opportunities in university programs. Sexual violence is defined as physical sexual acts perpetrated against a person’s will or where a person is incapable of giving consent. This may include 1) rape, 2) sexual assault, 3) sexual battery, and 4) sexual coercion. All such acts of sexual violence are forms of sexual harassment covered under Unlawful Discrimination (Title IX). BYU-Idaho’s policy against sexual harassment, sexual assault, sexual violence, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking extends not only to employment situations but to academic situations as well. If a student becomes aware of sexual harassment, sexual assault, sexual violence, domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, or needs assistance or information related to these allegations they should contact the Student Honor Office at 208-496-9300, Kimball Building Room 270; Dean of Students Office at 208-496-9200, Kimball Building Room 290; or Human Resources Office at 208-496-1700, Kimball Building Room 240. Victims of a sex crime, violence, or stalking should contact the police where the crime occurred. Under the laws of the state of Idaho, BYU-Idaho is permitted as a private institution to place limitations on the carrying of weapons onto its private property. No one (employees, students, or visitors) except trained and authorized municipal, county, state, and federal law enforcement officers, or trained and authorized BYU-Idaho Security officers, is permitted to possess or carry firearms or other weapons, concealed or not concealed, with or without a concealed weapons permit, while upon the properties owned or controlled by the university. Specifically approved and sanctioned BYU-Idaho programs, such as archery courses and Badger Creek programs, may use weapons under the guidance of trained instructors, within the scope of their approved mission. Members of the campus ROTC units may possess and/or carry firearms or weapons with the firing pins or other actuating devices removed as part of official ROTC functions when authorized by the ROTC administrator. ROTC units on campus are also allowed to possess and store unloaded paint ball training equipment in a secured storage area on campus. BYU-Idaho campus is a weapons-free environment. Single-Student Approved Housing All single students under the age of 30 must live in approved housing unless they live at home with their parents. Only admitted students are eligible to live in approved housing beginning in their first assigned semester. Individuals enrolled in Continuing Education who are not admitted to a track are not eligible to live in approved housing. Students who wish to live with a relative must receive an exception from the Housing & Student Living Office to live outside of approved housing. For complete policy see Housing and Student Living at www.byui.edu/housing/policies/apartment-living-standards. Harassment, Hazing, Intimidation or Aggressive Behavior All forms of harassment including but not limited to verbal, physical, mental, sexual, including sexual violence, hazing, intimidation, exploitation, or aggressive behavior that threaten or endanger the physical or emotional health and safety of others is in violation of the Honor Code. To report these types of behavior contact the Student Honor Office at 208-496-9300, Kimball Bldg. Room 270 or the Dean of Students Office at 208-496-9200, Kimball Bldg. Room 290. Overnight Guests Because overnight guests often cause interruption and inconvenience to others, all such guests should be cleared with the apartment manager and agreed upon by the roommates. No overnight guests of the opposite sex are permitted at any time. Each tenant shall be responsible for any damage, beyond reasonable wear and tear, to the property of the apartment complex caused by the tenant, members of the tenant’s family, or guests of the tenant. Visitation Guidelines (by the Opposite Sex) Men and women may visit in apartments of the opposite sex beginning at 10 a.m. Visitors of the opposite sex are not allowed in bedrooms at any time. See Apartment Living Standards at www.byui. edu/housing/policies/apartment-living-standards. 56 University Standards Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 3. Dress and Grooming Standards Swim Wear Brigham Young University Idaho invites students to refer to, For the Strength of Youth when choosing their swimsuit attire. Specifically we are taught, “Never lower your dress standards for any occasion. Doing so sends the message that you are using your body to get attention and approval and that modesty is important only when it is convenient”. Campus Attire “Never lower your standards of dress. Do not use a special occasion as an excuse to be immodest. When you dress immodestly, you send a message that is contrary to your identity as a son or daughter of God. You also send the message that you are using your body to get attention and approval. Immodest clothing is any clothing that is tight, sheer, or revealing in any manner.” (For the Strength of Youth, pg.6-7). Swimsuits should be modest in fabric, fit and style. Women’s suits should cover the stomach. Men’s suits should sit at the waist. Men and women should be neat and clean in appearance. Avoid extreme clothing and hairstyles Pants, slacks or jeans should not be in poor condition, frayed or torn and must be ankle length. Caps or hats should not be worn in buildings. Shoes should be worn in all public campus areas. Flip-flops and other casual footwear are inappropriate on campus. Shorts are not appropriate campus attire. Do not disfigure yourself with tattoos. Body piercing’s are not appropriate. 4. Continuing Ecclesiastical Endorsement The Board of Trustees of BYU-Idaho requires every student, attending the university to have an annual continuing ecclesiastical endorsement. This will be completed by the bishop of the ward in which the student and/or membership record reside. The continuing endorsement must be completed prior to registering for classes. Women Clothing is immodest when it is sleeveless, does not cover the stomach or is low-cut in the front or back. Dresses and skirts should be knee-length or longer (even with leggings worn). No capris may be worn on campus. Women may wear one pair of earrings. The bishop verifies the following: •If LDS, the student is in full fellowship in the Church •The student lives a chaste and virtuous life, including avoidance of pornography, abstinence from sexual relations outside of marriage, and abstinence from homosexual conduct •The student lives the Word of Wisdom by abstaining from alcoholic beverages, tobacco, coffee, tea, and other harmful substances •The student demonstrates appropriate and consistent church activity •The student is honest Men Hairstyles should be clean and neat, avoiding extreme styles or colors,and trimmed above the collar leaving the ear uncovered. Sideburns should not extend below the earlobe or onto the cheek. Men are expected to be clean shaven, moustaches, if worn, should be neatly trimmed and may not extend beyond or below the corners of the mouth. Beards are not appropriate. The student verifies they are striving to live the Honor Code. Students will renew their endorsement during the first semester of their assigned track. Online students without an assigned track will renew their endorsement annually during the semester of their initial enrollment. Dress Standards for Men and Women at Campus Events Activity and Recreational Attire Dress standards for each event will be specified prior to the event. If no standard is indicated, the minimum standard is campus attire. Modest casual attire may be worn at certain activities and events. Shorts and other pants ending above the ankle are inappropriate for campus. Shorts are only allowed at playing fields and must be modest in length. Traveling across campus to activities in shorts is not appropriate. 5. Church Attendance One of the greatest advantages Brigham Young University-Idaho offers its students is the opportunity to be a member of a student ward and stake. Sunday meetings, Monday home evenings and other activities contribute to the spiritual and social growth of each student. Progress toward spirituality and righteousness is greatly enhanced through participation in the sacrament, priesthood, Relief Society and auxiliary meetings provided each week. BYU-Idaho’s most important mission is to encourage students to live the principles and build testimonies of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. Event Attire The minimum standard for men will be shirt and tie. Jeans are not appropriate. The minimum standard for women will be a dress (or a skirt and blouse or sweater). Casual dress or clothing will not be permitted. Attendance in your assigned ward is a requirement for continued enrollment. Students who do not attend their church meetings may have their endorsements withdrawn. Semiformal Dance Attire Men: A tuxedo is optional, while church attire such as a sports coat or dressy sweater is recommended. A dress shirt and tie, formal half-collar shirt without tie, or turtleneck with a sport coat and dress slacks are acceptable. Dress shoes are required. Athletic shoes, Tshirts, kilts, jeans, and grubby attire are not appropriate. Single students living in approved housing are expected to attend their assigned YSA ward. Students whose home is in the immediate community are expected to attend their home ward or assigned YSA ward. Married students generally attend married-student wards but may elect to attend community ward in which they reside based on specific family needs. Women: A formal dress is optional; Sunday dress is recommended (a modest dress with the hemline or slit at or below the knee). Dress shoes are required.

STUDENT FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY This section describes the CONTRACTUAL FINANCIAL AGREEMENT between Brigham Young University-Idaho (BYU-I) and each student who attends any regular school session and/or enrolls in any credit class. 1. Enrollment at BYU-I constitutes a contractual financial obligation to pay tuition and fees for classes in which a student is enrolled. 2. It is the student’s responsibility to abide by published payment and registration deadlines. 3. BYU-I Personal Account information can only be released to the student. It is the student’s responsibility to notify parents/legal guardians of account balances, or to authorize a parent/legal guardian to access a student’s BYU-I Personal Account for payment purposes. 4. Federal Student Aid Title IV funds (financial aid), if authorized, automatically pays charges assessed to the student’s account for tuition, fees, room, and board (if contracted through BYU-I). 5. The student is responsible for repayment of financial aid funds upon withdrawal from school or otherwise failing to meet eligibility requirements for financial aid disbursed to the student. 6. The student may give authorization to BYU-I to use financial aid funds to pay all charges incurred on the student’s BYU-I Personal Account by completing a Federal Financial Aid Authorization Form. 7. The student is responsible for payment of tuition/fees by the published deadlines regardless of whether financial aid, scholarship, or grant funds are to be used, subject to late charges, interest charges, and other penalties as described below. 8. The student is responsible for payment of any and all charges incurred on the student’s BYU-I Personal Account during the course of any school semester or session. 9. If a student does not pay the balance of tuition/fees by the published deadline, the student is responsible to pay an additional 5% late charge, and a financial hold will be placed on the student’s BYU-I Personal Account restricting registration for future semesters and the ability to obtain official transcripts or diplomas. 10. A service charge of 1% per month will be assessed for any outstanding balances on a student’s BYU-I Personal Account. 11. Outstanding balances that continue to remain unpaid will be subject to customary collection proceedings, including from BYU-I and/or third-party collection agencies. Collection proceedings may result in reporting to credit bureaus. The student is responsible for all collection costs incurred in the collection of debts owed, including attorney’s fees. Full-Time/Part-time Status Tuition is based upon the number of registered credits (including audited classes). Students taking 12 or more credits per semester are considered full-time, and will be assessed tuition at the full-time rate. Otherwise, a student is considered part-time, and tuition is assessed for each credit for which the student is registered. Tuition Computation/Assessment Tuition is computed and assessed at the time a student registers for classes. A student’s final tuition assessment will be the higher of the number of credits registered for at one of three dates as follows: 1) Assessment Date; 2) Registration Deadline; or 3) Financial Aid Determination Date. Below are some examples of how the tuition assessment is computed. Please note that in the examples, the Assessment Date is after the Registration Deadline, and 12 credits represent a full-time student and could be 12 or more credits. Registration Deadline Assessment Date Financial Aid Determination Date Resulting number of credits assessed Student A 12 credits 12 credits 10 credits 12 credits Student B 9 credits 12 credits 9 credits 12 credits Student C 10 credits 8 credits 8 credits 10 credits For full-time students no additional tuition is assessed for classes added after the Payment Deadline. However, if individual classes are dropped which result in the student becoming a part-time student, a full tuition refund will be given if the classes are dropped prior to the Registration Deadline. For further tuition refund information, see the Tuition Refunds section below. For part-time students, any classes added will be assessed additional tuition for the appropriate number of credits up to a maximum of the full-time rate. However, if individual classes are dropped, a full tuition refund will be given if the classes are dropped prior to the Registration Deadline. For further tuition refund information, see the Tuition Refunds section below. Class Fees Certain classes may have an additional fee due to the unique expenses associated with that class. Generally, these fees are for supplies, travel, lab fees, private lessons, or other expenses associated with a particular class. Class fees are considered purchased and used after the Registration Deadline. There is no refund of class fees after the Registration Deadline, unless the instructor certifies to the Bursar’s Office that a refund is warranted. TUITION, FEES, AND OTHER CHARGES Definition of Critical Dates Assessment Date: Date in which classes were added to or dropped from a student’s class schedule. Payment Deadline: Date in which tuition is billed and posted to the student’s Personal Account and in which full payment is due (First Day of Classes for a semester or term). Other Charges Except as specifically noted below, other items or services purchased or used from various campus locations may be paid by one or more of the following payment methods: cash, check, credit card, I-Card, or charged to the student’s Personal Account. Items charged to a student’s Personal Account are due on the last day of the month following purchase or service. Federal Financial Aid may be authorized by the student to pay for these charges. If the student does not pay the outstanding charges by one week following the start of classes, a financial hold will be placed on the student’s Personal Account restricting registration for future semesters, and the ability to obtain official transcripts or diplomas, a late charge of 5% will be assessed on any outstanding balance in addition to a 1% per month service charge on any outstanding balance. Registration Deadline: Last day to register or add classes to a student’s class schedule, and the last day to drop classes and receive a full tuition/fee refund (one week after the start of classes for a semester or term.) Late charges on any unpaid balance of tuition/fees will be assessed on this date. Waiver Deadline: Last day for a student to enroll dependents in the Student Health Plan, and the last day to submit a waiver of insurance, if eligible. This date is the same date as the Registration Deadline (one week after the start of classes for a semester or term). 62 Financial Policies Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Books and Supplies TUITION PAYMENT DEADLINE Books and school supplies may be purchased at the University Store using cash, check, bank card, declining balance using an I-Card, or by charging them to the student’s Personal Account. The tuition payment deadline is the first-day of classes for all students. However, no late charges will be assessed until one week after the start of classes to allow for changes to class schedules. Student Health Plan Full-time students who have been charged the full-time rate will not incur additional tuition charges for classes added subsequent to the Tuition Payment Deadline, regardless of whether they were semester or block classes. However, any additional class fees will be assessed and will be required to be paid in full immediately. BYU-I requires all traditional, matriculated students to have adequate medical insurance coverage in the Rexburg area while enrolled in school and wherever they are living during off-track periods. To satisfy this requirement, all students are required to enrolled in the Student Health Plan or complete a health Plan waiver when registering for classes. A student may waive the Student Health Plan if they are already covered by an Affordable Care Act compliant health care plan, or insurance is provided by their parents, their employer, their spouse’s employer, Medicare or Complete Coverage Idaho Medicaid. Part-time students who add classes after the Tuition Payment Deadline will be required to pay additional tuition immediately, up to the maximum of the full-time rate, plus additional class fees. All students registered for Second Block Only classes or Summer Session classes are considered part-time. Students who add classes subsequent to the Tuition Payment Deadline will be required to pay additional tuition immediately, plus additional class fees. Enrollment in the Student Health Plan will be effective the first day of the semester. Students will not be enrolled if they submit a Health Plan Waiver by the waiver deadline. Limited additional enrollment options are available for students that graduate or lose their status as a continuing student. TUITION REFUNDS Tuition refunds will only be given as follows: 1. Classes dropped up to the Registration Deadline (one week after classes start – see current academic calendar for specific dates) Students may drop classes at any point during the registration period up until the Registration Deadline. A full tuition refund will be given for classes dropped up to the Registration Deadline. NO REFUND will be given for dropped classes after the Registration Deadline unless the student officially withdraws from BYU-Idaho (see below). 2. Complete withdrawal from school When a student withdraws from BYU-I after the Registration Deadline, a pro-rated refund will be given until 60% of the term or semester has passed. There will be NO REFUND given when a student withdraws from school after 60% of the term or semester has elapsed. 3. Exceptions to the Tuition Refund Policy BYU-I recognizes there may be situations beyond a student’s control where an exception to the above policy may be warranted. The following exceptions will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis to determine whether the situation merits an exception: A) Death of the student; B) Death of an immediate family member where continuing school is impractical; C) Medical condition requiring extended medical care where continuing school is impractical; D) Acceptance of a qualifying internship. When enrolled in the Student Health Plan, the premium will be charged to the student’s Personal Account and is due and payable by the Payment Deadline. If the student does not pay the premium by the Registration Deadline, a 5% late charge on any unpaid balance will be assessed. In addition, a 1% per month service charge on any outstanding balance will be assessed until the premium is paid in full. Student Health Center Medical Care Only Matriculating students and their dependents have access to the Student Health Center. Costs for visits and services are the responsibility of the student. If the student has insurance coverage other than through the Student Health Plan, the student has the responsibility to submit claims to that insurance company. The Student Health Center does not bill insurance other than through the BYU-I Student Health Plan. Campus Housing Students may enter into a Housing contract for on-campus housing through the Housing Office. Payments are due in accordance with Housing contracts signed by the student. Long Distance Phone Cards Students living in on-campus housing may acquire a BYU-I long distance phone card through the Bursar’s Office. Long distance charges will be billed to the student’s Personal Account. Federal Student Aid (Title IV) Refunds When a student receives Federal Student Aid (Title IV) funds to attend BYU-I, and subsequently withdraws from school, federal laws and regulations require BYU-I to determine whether any unearned Title IV funds were awarded and whether those funds need to be returned to the Department of Education and/or to the lending agency. For further information regarding return of Title IV funds, please see the Student Financial Aid section of the Catalog or contact the Financial Aid & Scholarships Office. Financial Aid & Scholarships Office Brigham Young University-Idaho 525 South Center St Rexburg, ID 83460-1610 (208) 496-1608 www.byui.edu/FinancialAid Dining Dollars Students may purchase Dining Dollars for use at all campus Food Services locations.

A cost of attendance amount is established which includes tuition, fees, room and board, other required expenses, and a modest allowance for cost of living (see the Tuition, Fees and Expenses Section of the catalog). This amount represents the maximum amount we can accept on behalf of a student for a single academic year. If a student overpays, the Bursar’s Office will review the account and contact the student to determine how any overpayment should be handled. In some cases the funds may be set aside for the following year. In other cases, the payment will be refunded to the sender. BYU-Idaho I-Card All traditional matriculating students and their spouses can obtain a BYU-Idaho identification card (called I-Card) at the ID Center located in the Bursar’s Office, KIM 130. This card is used campuswide to identify students and is required to 1. transact business at the Cashier’s Office, 2. use any I-Card dollars or Dining Dollars, etc. This card serves as an Activity Card which includes access to the Hart Building, McKay Library, and other facilities on campus.

Other information such as number of individuals in the household, number attending college, value of savings accounts and assets, etc., will need to be reported. For more detailed and up- to-date information, please visit the StudentFinancial Aid website at www.byui.edu/financial-aid. After the student’s FAFSA has been submitted to the U.S. Department of Education, a Student Aid Report (SAR) will be emailed to the student, usually within three to four business days. This same SAR is sent electronically to BYU-Idaho, where the information is used to determine the types of aid for which the student is eligible. BYU-Idaho offers Federal Student Government Aid and University Aid to assist students in financing their education. FEDERAL AID (Title IV Funds) A Federal Pell Grant is awarded by the U.S. Department of Education on the basis of financial need. Pell Grants are based on the estimated cost of attendance, length of the enrollment period, and number of credits a student carries. The student does not have to be enrolled full-time to qualify for a Pell Grant award; however taking less than full-time credits will result in a prorated award. The student must be an undergraduate who does not already have a bachelor’s degree. Pell Grants do not have to be repaid. One week after submitting a FAFSA, students should check their online Financial Aid Document Tracking link (under the FINANCES tab at my.byui.edu) to verify their FAFSA was received by BYU-Idaho and to determine if any additional information is needed to process their application. Any additional documentation requested should be submitted as soon as possible to avoid delays in receiving federal financial aid. Students can expect federal aid award information to be available in their online Financial Aid Awards link (also under the FINANCES tab at my.byui.edu) within 8-10 weeks of submitting the last requested document. The Subsidized Federal Direct Stafford Loan is need-based. Principal and interest payments are postponed while the student is enrolled in school at least half time and during the six-month grace period after graduation or ceasing to attend school. While the student is enrolled at least half time the federal government pays the interest for the student. To apply, see “How to Apply for a Federal Student Loan” in this section. How to Apply for a Federal Student Loan To apply for federal loans, students must first complete the FAFSA. Once the FAFSA is completed and the student’s financial aid award amounts have been determined, a student loan offer will appear on the Financial Aid Awards link (under the FINANCES tab at my.byui. edu. Loan offers are generally made for two semesters at a time. This means any loan amount accepted would be split equally between the two semesters. The Unsubsidized Federal Direct Stafford Loan is not need-based. Students may qualify for this program as long as their educational costs exceed the amount of financial assistance awarded. Principal and interest payments are postponed while the student is enrolled in school at least half time and during the six-month grace period after graduation or ceasing to attend school. The student is responsible for paying the interest that accrues on the loan. To apply, see “How to Apply for a Federal Student Loan” in this section. To receive loan funds, students must accept any portion of their loan offer from their award statement and complete a Master Promissory Note (MPN) and entrance loan counseling at www.studentloans. gov. Once these steps are completed, loan funds would generally be available within a few business days. Please note: students must be enrolled in at least 6 credits to be eligible for federal student loans. Federal Direct Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students(PLUS) is available for dependent undergraduate students. The amount borrowed by the parent may not exceed the estimated cost of attendance less other financial assistance the student has been or will be awarded during the period of enrollment. Please contact the Student Financial Aid Office to determine eligibility for individual loan amounts. Deadlines for Federal Student Aid Priority Deadline In order to receive federal aid by the tuition payment deadline, students need to have their FAFSA and required documents submitted two months prior to attending BYU-Idaho. Students not meeting this priority deadline will not be denied aid; however, funding will not be available until later in the school year and late fees will be assessed. The Student Financial Aid Office will NOT be responsible for any late fees if this deadline is not met. General Eligibility for Federal Student Aid In general, a financial aid recipient must meet the following eligibility standards: 1. Have a high school diploma, G.E.D. certificate, or a high school equivalency certificate issued by the state. 2. Be admitted and enrolled as a degree-seeking student. 3. Be a U.S. citizen or an eligible non-citizen. 4. Be making satisfactory academic progress. For details please go to www.byui.edu/financial-aid/policies/satisfactoryacademic-progress. 5. Be current on any required repayments of federal grants and/or federal student loans received for attendance at any school. 6. If required, a male student must be registered with Selective Service. 7. Have a valid Social Security Number. Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) The federal processor will not accept a 2014-15 FAFSA after June 30, 2015 or the last date of attendance, whichever comes first. BYUIdaho must receive a valid Student Aid Report (SAR) electronically by the student’s last day of enrollment for the academic year. Students should complete their FAFSA and submit any required documents no later than two months before their last day of attendance. Verification If a student’s FAFSA is selected for verification, the verification process must be completed within 110 days after the student’s last day of enrollment or approximately Sept. 15, 2015, (whichever is earlier). It is best to turn in all documents no later than two month before the last date of enrollment. Please do NOT procrastinate! It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of all deadlines. For more details and up-to-date information on deadlines, visit the Financial Aid website at www.byui.edu/financial-aid. How to Apply for Federal Student Aid All students applying for federal student aid must first complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine eligibility. Apply at www.fafsa.ed.gov. The FAFSA requires information from the student’s federal tax form and possibly the student’s parents’ 66 Student Support Services Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Student Loans UNIVERSITY AID Student loans must be originated by a student’s last day of enrollment at BYU-Idaho for the academic year. To be considered for university scholarships, students must complete the BYU-Idaho Scholarship Application each year online. The application is available through the Student Financial Aid website at www.byui.edu/financial-aid from November 1st-April 15th. Scholarship eligibility is determined through the application for the following academic year. Online students are not currently eligible for university scholarships. See below for more information regarding each scholarship type: Financial Aid Determination Date (FADD) Pell Grant amounts are based on the number of credits a student is registered for on the FINANCIAL AID DETERMINATION DATE. This is the last date to drop classes without receiving a W grade. Pell Grant amounts are recalculated as needed after the Financial Aid Determination Date. Students may owe funds or receive additional funds based their credits as of FADD. If BYU-Idaho receives a student’s FAFSA information after the FADD, the student’s Pell Grant amount would be based on his/her enrollment as of the day the student’s financial aid application is processed. Academic Scholarships for Incoming Freshmen New freshman applying to BYU-Idaho may be considered for this scholarship. Scholarship amounts ranges from quarter to full LDS tuition. The scholarship is awarded based on academic criteria (High School GPA, ACT/SAT scores). Students must be regular daytime students enrolled in 14 or more credits during the semester for which they are awarded. Returning Federal Student Aid (Title IV Funds) When a student completely withdraws from school, the university is required to determine the percentage of Title IV funds “earned” by the student and to return the unearned portion to the government. This percentage is determined according to the number of days the student participated in classes. The return of funds policy follows these steps: 1. Determine the percentage of the enrollment period completed by the student. (If the calculated percentage exceeds 60%, the student has “earned” all of his/her Title IV aid for the enrollment period.) Days participated ÷ Days in Enrollment Period = Percentage of Enrollment Period Completed 2. Calculate the “earned” portion of the federal aid. Total Aid Awarded x Percentage of Enrollment Period Completed = Earned Aid 3. Determine the amount of unearned aid. Total Aid Awarded - Earned Aid = Unearned Aid 4. Determine the amount of unearned charges. Total Institutional Charges x Percentage of Unearned Aid = Unearned Charges 5.

Student leaders are given a framework where they counsel with advisors and then act for themselves. Students take the lead in, and are responsible for, organizing and administering every aspect of the day-to-day operations of the program. Participate Each semester there are literally thousands of opportunities to get involved. Students can choose to participate in weekly dances or talent workshops, play a competitive or recreational sport, or learn more about the unique opportunities in Southeast Idaho through the outdoor program.

Nothing that will happen in the future can surpass its importance. It is the event of all events in our history, and a hundred years from now it will be recognized as such.” -Principal Ezra C. Dalby “The Spirit of Ricks” -David L. Crowder 76 Academic Support Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 English Transitional Center (ETC) Department of Academic Support The English Transitional Center (ETC) is designed to help students with English as a Second Language (ESL) adjust to their role as matriculated college students. The ETC helps students improve and practice their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. Through English 102 modules, students may receive individual (peer tutor) help with pronunciation, grammar, writing, vocabulary, reading comprehension, and conversation skills. English 102 may be taken for credit or non credit. English 108 (orientation and verbal communication) and English 109 (writing) are classroom setting courses offered through the Academic Support Center for second language speaker students who have been accepted to BYU–Idaho. Students receive college credit towards graduation for all of these courses. Writing Center The Writing Center provides a relaxed environment for students to work with trained assistants to improve their writing process. Qualified student assistants work individually with writers with free, twenty-minute sessions. Because the Center teaches writing through revision, students may expect help throughout the writing process as they move papers from rough drafts to final projects. Writing Assistants work as an objective audience and involve students directly in the critical thinking/writing process. Writing Assistants and students work together to discover and generate ideas, develop logical concrete support, organize and focus evidence, and format documentation.

Accounting Additional Information 1. As an integrated major, Accounting not only prepares you with job-ready skills in accounting but also allows the selection of other courses in packaging a bachelor’s degree to fit your individual needs and goals. Students with Accounting degrees are some of the most sought after by recruiters. 2. To bridge the gap between academics and industry, the Accounting major requires a semester internship during your junior or senior year. By then, you will have sufficient accounting training to make a valuable contribution as an intern. 3. The coursework will stress analytical, interpretive, and communication skills. Rather than specializing in tax, financial reporting or other regulatory requirements, you will have sufficient background to recognize and anticipate important accounting issues and the training to do research to find the answers needed by the decision-making team. 4. Students who major in Accounting must also choose an approved cluster. The list of approved clusters is found in the major requirements on the following page. Darryl Foutz, Department Chair G.

Applied Plant Science The Agronomy, Crop, Soil Science Program provides excellent connections with local and international Agricultural companies doing research through the farm on campus, as well as coordinating internship and employment opportunities throughout their network in the industry. Employment opportunities for students with a background in Agriculture are excellent. Examples of career opportunities available are specialists in crop consulting, plant genetics, soil and water, environmental science, GPS/GIS, machinery management, agronomy, education, food processing, plant nutrition, food safety, range resource management, government agency workers and researchers. Internships are an integral component of the various programs in the Applied Plant Science Department. They are a doorway to the industry, and provide students with practical exposure to real world applications of plant studies. The Agriculture Technology Program prepares students for a career in the technical and mechanical world of agriculture. Rapid mechanization of the industry over the past two generations has made shop work a larger and more essential part of agriculture operations. Students will attain skills needed to diagnose, repair, maintain all equipment related to agriculture systems. In addition, learning the technology of global positioning systems and geographical information systems will prepare technicians in all aspects of equipment operation and maintenance.

Several graduates of this department have gone on to advanced degrees in Landscape Architecture, Agriculture Engineering, Agronomy, and other industry certification. Students who like plants, have a desire to improve the world around them, and enjoy applying the law of the harvest will benefit from their time in the programs of Applied Plant Science. From seed to bouquet, from farm to table, the principles of the plant’s potential are the core of this Department. Paula Arnold, Dept. Secretary, Benson 144, (208) 496-4581 http://www.byui.edu/applied-plant-science/ Department Description The Department of Applied Plant Science emphasizes the relationship between the art and science of plant culture. This relationship affects production on thousands of acres as well as on a smaller, more urban scale in residential gardens and in the ornamental use of plants where art is specifically emphasized. In all these areas, plants are an integral part of the human experience. The emphasis on both production and aesthetics in the department’s degrees and programs has prophetic roots: “There is a great work for the Saints to do. Progress, and improve upon and make beautiful everything around you. Cultivate the earth, and cultivate your minds. Build cities, adorn your habitations, make gardens, orchards, and vineyards, and render the earth so pleasant that when you look upon your labors you may do so with pleasure, and that angels may delight to come and visit your beautiful locations.” Brigham Young, Deseret News, Aug. 8, 1860, 177. Students in these programs apply scientific knowledge to practical, hands-on experience in the Thomas E Ricks Gardens and Greenhouses, the Hill View Farm, the Plant Shop, the Ag Shop (Ag Engineering Building), and The Flower Center. They also provide produce and ornamentation for the BYU Idaho campus, events, community and local farmers markets. The department focuses on learning how plants grow, how to propagate them, and how to prepare them for consumer use. From basic plant science, to artistic embellishments for life events, this department offers a buffet of opportunities to improve the quality of life. 92 Applied Plant Science Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 AAS in Plant Science and Technology (365) Take required Foundation courses (17 credits) Major Requirements No Double Counting of Major Courses -

Recommendations for New Communication Majors Mike Cannon, Department Chair Melissa Bair, Brent Bean, Robyn Bergstrom, Mike Cannon, Eric Embree, Caryn Esplin, Andra Hansen, Beth Hendricks, Ward Hicks, Jeff Hochstrasser, Brian Howard, Joel Judkins, Cory Kerr, Eric Lybbert, Mark Orchard, Marc Skinner, John Thompson, Lee Warnick, Ron Weekes, Lane Williams COMM 100, Introduction to Communication Major and Professions, should be completed in a student’s first semester as a Communication major. Additionally, it is recommended that a student complete COMM 102 (Public Speaking) and COMM 111 (Writing for Communication Careers) in the first semester. These three courses should be enrolled in or completed before students can proceed to other Communication courses. Delaina Scholes, Department Secretary (208) 496-3691 http://www.byui.edu/Comm/ Introduction In a world where information is more readily available from more sources and more rapidly disseminated than ever before, the ability to communicate correctly, clearly, precisely and persuasively has never been more important. Students trained in communication are prepared to work in exciting, wide-ranging, fast-changing, cuttingedge careers. With a recently revamped program, our department’s aim is to better prepare students to become skilled, knowledgeable, versatile, progressive, ethical practitioners through courses and programs addressing today’s professional requirements while anticipating tomorrow’s developments. We believe all future communication professionals should develop a solid, broad foundation of knowledge and skills. Students should be able to write and speak confidently to a wide range of audiences; to research and analyze scenarios and develop sound ideas and solutions; to get along and work with diverse people in many kinds of situations; to serve in groups constructively or lead them productively; and to produce targeted and effective written, spoken and visual messages in media, group and interpersonal settings. Additionally, we believe students best learn by doing. From a student’s first semester as a Communication major at BYU-Idaho, we encourage him or her to get involved with our hands-on practicums. These professionally oriented, student-managed organizations are designed to reinforce, enhance and expand upon what is learned in class. Our innovative I~Comm student media organization puts students to work for the Scroll campus newspaper, Scroll Digital broadcast organization, Soapbox Creative Agency, video production unit, copy editing team, web development crew, or visual design agency. Students who take full advantage of the training and opportunities in I~Comm are well on their way toward being ready to meet the demands of tomorrow’s ever-changing communication careers. The same professors they learn within the classroom roll up their sleeves in I~Comm and other practicums, thus completing an integrated learning experience. 168 Communication Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 BS in Communication Advertising Emphasis (675-160) Take required Foundations courses (40 credits) Major Requirements No Double Counting of Major Courses -

(Spring) 197 * Credit Description (Credit Hours : Lecture Hours per week : Lab Hours per week) Dance Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Dance Degrees The Theatre and Dance Department offers a Bachelor of Arts degree (B.A.) in Dance with two separate and unique areas of emphasis. The Performance Emphasis (655-168) prepares students for career opportunities, or continued studies, as a performer and/ or choreographer in contemporary dance. The Pedagogy Emphasis (655-169) prepares students for career opportunities, or continued studies, in teaching, directing, and research in a chosen style or area of focus. Both areas of emphasis require an application, proficiency audition, and interview. (A Division of the Theatre and Dance Department) In addition to these two options, the Dance Area also offers an Interdisciplinary Arts Concentration (D 131), a Minor (183), and a Cluster (5100) in dance studies, none of which have an audition requirement. These courses of study will provide the opportunity for students to gain the skills and understanding necessary to assist them in their dance-related career goals. BA in Dance Degree Outcomes It is expected that a graduate with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Dance will be able to: •Identify and work conceptually with the physical, emotional, and theoretical elements of composition, style, pedagogy, and performance, based on their chosen area of emphasis. •Demonstrate a fundamental knowledge of the body, based on kinesiologically applied and/or somatic-centered understanding of movement principles, as well as culturally and historically constructed contexts within an LDS perspective. •Exhibit performance and/or instructional proficiency in chosen area of emphasis coupled with an awareness and appreciation of all genres of dance. •Articulate and defend theoretical/artistic frameworks and analytical evaluations based on individual experience and synthesis within a diverse global context. •Access opportunities to continue academic/performance studies at the graduate level and/or employment in instruction, choreography, and performance of dance in their chosen area of emphasis. Gary J. Larsen, Department Chair Wendy Bone, Shawn Fisher, Ashley Hoopes, Gary J. Larsen Angela Donnelly, Department Secretary (208) 496-4850 http://www.byui.edu/dance/ Introduction Successful graduates in dance are suited for a range of career options based on the chosen area of emphasis. Public and private schools, dance schools and studios, theatrical settings, arts organizations, and fitness centers are some of the many areas within which employment might be located. Besides work with movement technique, composition, improvisation, body conditioning, health and fitness, graduates may also be suited to work in areas of arts management/ administration, public relations, personal consulting, dance criticism, and community and outreach work. With additional education and licensure, a successful graduate could proceed into higher education teaching, dance history, kinesiology, specialized dance and integrated movement therapy. It is the mission of the Theatre and Dance Department at Brigham Young University-Idaho to: •Promote dance that is wholesome, uplifting, of high artistic and technical merit, and consistent with the divinely directed standards of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the University. •Provide opportunities for students to develop spiritually, artistically, intellectually and physically. This is accomplished through an emphasis on gospel principles, personal integrity, dedication, hard work, individual enrichment, and sensitivity to multiple perspectives. •Furnish students with a versatile, yet quality movement-based and theoretical experience, establishing a foundation for a career in a dance-related field. •Assist students in the discovery, development, and articulation of their own artistic and philosophical perspectives. •Offer opportunities for students to use their skills and gifts to serve the Lord, the community, and their families. •Challenge students to become individual thinkers, seek opportunities to serve, and pursue artistic endeavors that reflect a richly complex and diverse global orientation. 198 Dance Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 BA in Dance Admittance Introductory and Technique Level Courses The Department of Theatre and Dance has a first-year open enrollment policy for all students seeking a BA in Dance. Students may initially declare a Dance Major at the time of application and enrollment to the University. However, all declared Dance Majors, whether new, continuing, or transfer students are considered as “Prospective Dance Majors” until they have been formally accepted by the Department into the degree program. Formal acceptance will be made after the successful completion of a proficiency audition. Students are encouraged to audition during their first year of study. Studio-based movement classes at the 100-level are considered introductory courses oriented toward students with little or no experience in that style or genre. Classes offered at the 200-level are considered technique-level 1 courses, oriented toward dancers with experience and focused on the proper technical and artistic execution of each given style. 300 and 400-level courses are each considered subsequent levels to be followed in succession. Nevertheless, successful completion of one technique level does not ensure advancement to the proceeding level. Consultation with advisors and instructors, coupled with the jury process explained above, will guide each student to the appropriate level course. The proficiency audition process is comprised of a written statement and application, a movement performance and/or class, and an interview with faculty members. Written applications can be submitted to the Dance Office (MC 214) up to one week prior to the audition, the dates of which are posted on the department website. Students will be notified of their status within three weeks of the audition. Notwithstanding, enrollment in each level requires the successful completion of the previous level. However, students who enter the program with an appropriate level of skill and experience may petition the instructor of the desired level to waive the prerequisite for the course and thus enroll. Generally speaking the 100-level courses are not required as part of the degree requirements. Students who have declared a Dance Major but have not been accepted via the audition process are responsible for declaring an alternate major and applying completed dance credits toward a Concentration, Minor, or Cluster. There is no required audition or application requirements for students pursuing a Concentration, Minor, or Cluster in Dance. Academic Advising Due to the intricacies of the track system coupled with the sequencing of dance course offerings, it is critical that degree seeking students meet early and often with the Academic Discovery Center (located in MC 376) and their assigned faculty advisor. Proper communication and planning can assist the student in executing the degree program with efficiency and suitability. BA in Dance Continuance Each year, students enrolled as dance majors will participate in a jury process comprised of a performance for and/or interview with faculty members in conjunction with the student’s area of emphasis. An important part of this evaluation will include the review of a portfolio of the student’s activity and engagement in the Department and major classes. This process is meant to determine the student’s progress and advancement within the degree program. Performing Groups and Auditions The Department of Theatre and Dance has two performing companies that provide opportunities for majors and non-majors alike to participate in performances both on campus and abroad. The Collegiate Dancers is a faculty mentored dance company where students in the areas of Ballroom, Contemporary, and World Dance have the opportunity to create and perform in Extravadance and other local performance/workshop settings. Dance Alliance is a faculty directed dance company where students have the opportunity to perform in Extravadance and represent the University and Church on an extended tour during the seven-week break in late summer. Students must successfully pass all juries as required in order to advance. In addition to technical proficiency and achievement, advancement is also contingent upon department involvement, citizenship, and demonstrated personal responsibility. Situations resulting in a failure to complete or pass the jury process will be referred to mediation with faculty members to resolve related issues or seek an alternative degree program. Auditions for Dance Alliance are in January. Dance Alliance is a two-semester team operating on the Winter and Spring semesters. Auditions for Collegiate Dancers, which operates in Fall and Winter semesters, occur during the first two weeks of each these semesters. Audition dates are posted on the Department website. Incoming Student Course Sequence Due to the length of time required to complete the BA in Dance and the necessary theoretical and physical skill acquisition, it is imperative that students begin immediately with their training. It is suggested that students in their first semester enroll in “Introduction to Dance Major and Professions” (DA 103) and two technique level courses (explained below). Students pursuing the Performance Emphasis are strongly encouraged to enroll in Modern Dance Technique 1 (DA 240) and Ballet Technique I (DA 290), and those in the Pedagogy Emphasis in a technique course in their chosen area.

According to a study by Purdue University (2012), the average starting salary for majors in Agricultural Economics and Business was $43,450. Economics Why Study Economics or Financial Economics? What caused the housing bubble? Why are grocery prices going up? What is causing the recent changes in the stock market? Every day our lives are impacted by economic forces, both near and afar, making economics personal and interesting. The study of economics helps students understand these forces and provides the tools to assess their impacts. It provides a framework for analyzing how individuals or families, businesses, and governments make decisions as they face trade-offs. Students majoring in economics or financial economics develop strong analytical and quantitative reasoning skills that enable them to not only solve problems but also identify the appropriate questions to ask when evaluating possible alternatives. Such skills are valuable in all walks of life and as a result, graduates find employment opportunities in a wide range of areas, often with titles other than “economist.” Graduates in economics are most sought after in fields like banking and finance, business, law, public policy (e.g., health care, environment), and international trade and development. According to the Spring 2011 Salary Survey by the National Association of Colleges and Employers, the average starting salaries for graduates in Economics and Finance were $54,634 and $53,048, respectively. Allan Walburger, Department Chair David Barrus, Fenton Broadhead, Kirk Gifford, Rick Hirschi, Martin Ma, Mindi Martin, Stephen McGary, Ronald Nate, Edwin Sexton, Jeremy Slade, Allan Walburger, Kerry Webb Degrees Students may pursue a Bachelor of Science degree in Agribusiness, Agricultural Economics, Economics, or Financial Economics. Courses are designed to combine the theoretical economic and agribusiness principles with practical applications to prepare students to enter the job market or for further graduate studies. Denise Rydalch, Department Secretary (208) 496-3800 http://www.byui.edu/Economics/ The Department of Economics prepares students for many exciting and challenging employment opportunities, and offers a wide variety of course work in economics, financial economics, agribusiness, and agricultural economics. The close relationship between teachers and students creates a learning atmosphere that encourages the development of the finest students. Bachelor of Science in Agribusiness (643) The major in Agribusiness is comprised of courses in economics, finance, marketing, operational analysis, agricultural accounting, and business analytics. Students choose one of two emphases: Agribusiness Management or Global Food and Agribusiness Management. The first of these develops expertise in business management, accounting, and marketing while the latter develops more expertise in international trade and the global business environment. Students also complete a cluster in agricultural sciences (or food and nutrition). Students receive excellent training from applied and theoretical exercises that involve hands-on computer modeling, applications in financial analysis and international trade, and economics and business cases. All Agribusiness, Agricultural Economics, Economics, and Financial Economics majors obtain real-world experience through internships. A wide variety of locations and working environments are available throughout the United States and occasionally abroad. Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Economics (724) The major in agricultural economics combines an enriched economics core along with the strength of agribusiness courses to develop students’ quantitative and analytical ability. These skills are developed using applications from the agriculture sector. The major also provides the opportunity for increased understanding of agricultural sciences. Students take courses in operational analysis, price analysis and agriculture and policy. They also complete a cluster in agricultural sciences (or food and nutrition). Why Study Agribusiness or Agricultural Economics? Did you know that the U.S. Agribusiness sector accounts for approximately 17 percent of the U.S. GDP and employs approximately 30 million workers industry-wide? The agriculture and agri-food industry feeds the world and develops innovative products that meet the needs of consumers throughout the economy. If you have a passion for or desire to work as a business leader in agriculture, food processing, agricultural lending, corporate management, environmental sustainability or other related fields, the BYU-Idaho agribusiness degree is a great choice. It’s a field where economics, business, and agriculture merge. Bachelor of Science in Economics (720) In addition to the core credits, students majoring in economics have the flexibility to choose from a broad range of economic elective courses based on their career plans. These elective courses provide students with additional depth in their desired areas of emphasis. The agriculturally-related industries are vibrant with numerous opportunities domestically and internationally for growth and career advancement. Potential careers include commodity traders, wholesale buyers, corporate managers, specialists with major agricultural 215 Economics Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Bachelor of Science in Financial Economics (715) MBA / Masters in Finance The financial economics major combines economics with the tools of finance to prepare students for careers in financial institutions (e.g., commercial banks, Federal Reserve), capital markets, and the treasury/investment functions of a business. “Economics is viewed by more students as a ticket to the nation’s top business and law schools. ‘The best people are more frequently taking economics as their major …,’ said Richard A. Silverman, executive director of admissions at the Yale School of Management. ‘It shows they have the intellectual fire in the belly to perform well in an MBA program.’” (Tristan Mabry, Wall Street Journal, November 30, 1998). All of our majors include a good foundation in economics. Graduate Studies Although these degrees provide students with the skills for direct employment success, they also prepare students for further graduate studies which are required for certain careers in business, research, teaching, and consulting. In addition to a major in economics or agribusiness, students preparing for graduate studies can benefit from taking additional courses in statistics, mathematics, accounting, and computer information systems. Law School Do economists make better lawyers? A study by Craft and Baker, published in the Journal of Economic Education (Summer 2003, 263-268), found that lawyers with undergraduate degrees in economics earned $10,000 more per year than lawyers with other undergraduate degrees. The analytical skills gained in economics also help students perform well on the LSAT, with economics consistently being one of the top majors on the exam.

A Geography-based, “Travel and Tourism” four-year degree program is available at BYU. This program is for students interested in careers as travel agents or tourism related careers. You can complete two of the core courses of this program (Geog 101 and Geog 120), while at BYU - Idaho. Contact BYU Department of Geography for further information. Shawn Johansen, Department Chair Sean Cannon, Theron Josephson, Michael Madsen Department Requirements Students must earn a C- or better in all courses. MarcAnna Gohr, Department Secretary (208) 496-4220 http://www.byui.edu/History Introduction Geography’s ancient intellectual heritage persists today as we continue to examine the complexities and interrelationships of the world’s physical and cultural systems. Geography functions as a synthesizing discipline, providing a “bridge” between the physical and social sciences. We strive to perpetuate this long-standing objective by providing classes which investigate both the physical and cultural world. Geography students are taught to think in spatial terms, considering where physical and cultural phenomena are located, why they occupy this space, and the implications of these patterns. 235 Geography Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 Geography Minor (111) Minor Requirements No Double Counting of Minor Courses - Students must maintain a minimum grade of C- in their minor courses.

The broad, multidisciplinary nature of a major in geology is great preparation for careers in other areas, like business or law. Geology Most geoscience concepts are best understood by leaving the classroom and spending time studying the rocks and geologic features where they exist. Field trips off-campus provide students field experiences, enabling them to experience geologic features first hand. The unique location of BYU-Idaho offers an exceptional opportunity to study geology. Our students study at some of the most famous geologic localities in the world. Local and regional field trips to Yellowstone and Grand Teton Nation Parks, Snake River Plain volcanic and hydrologic features, Hebgen Lake and Borah Peak earthquake localities, and the Grand Canyon in Arizona, provide for effective learning, enhanced student understanding of geologic processes, and a superior preparation for future careers. Julie Willis, Department Chair Robb Clayton, Forest Gahn, Bill Little, Mark Lovell, Dan Moore, Megan Pickard, Greg Roselle, Julie Willis Jeanette Belnap, Department Secretary (208) 496-7671 http://www.byui.edu/Geology/ Introduction Geology offers students career opportunities both as professional geologists and as teachers in secondary education (Earth Science). Both career paths are currently in high demand. Graduates in Earth Science education are employable with their bachelor’s degree while the professional geologist’s track generally requires a graduate degree. The current financial rewards for geologists are significant and generally require living close to a major city. The education major provides greater flexibility in choosing where to live. In addition to our major programs, we are also home for minors in Geology, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and education minors in Earth Science and Natural Science. The education Natural Science minor is especially attractive for individuals planning to teach in smaller school districts. 238 Geology Brigham Young University–Idaho 2014-2015 BS in Geology (740) Take required Foundations courses (40 credits) No Double Counting of Major Courses Introductory Geology Core Take these courses during your first two semesters: GEOL 111 3 GEOL 111L 1 GEOL 112 4 GEOL 140 1 GEOL 340 3 12 Geology Core Module Take these courses: GEOL 301 GEOL 316 GEOL 351 GEOL 352 GEOL 370 GEOL 391 GEOL 392 1 3 3 3 4 2 2 18 Physical Science & Math Requirements Take these courses during your sophomore or junior year: CHEM 105* 4 CHEM 106 4 FDMAT 112** 4 MATH 215 4 PH 121* 3 PH 123 3 PH 150* 1 23 Choose an emphasis from the following list: Geoscience For students who plan to go to graduate school and pursue any geeoscience career.
