CALENDAR COPY

LINGUISTICS

University College (519) 661-2163
Social Science Centre (519) 661-3430

Linguistics is an interdisciplinary program administered by the Faculties of Arts and Social Science and available as a minor and as one component of a combined honors program. Students take courses from departments in both faculties and counselling will be done in a student's home faculty with the appropriate program co-director:

Co-Director for Arts for 2000: Jeff Tennant
Co-Director for Social Science for 2000: Lisa Valentine

MINOR IN LINGUISTICS

Linguistics may have the status of a Minor field of study for students registered in a three or four year general or honors program in the Faculty of Arts or the Faculty of Social Science.

In order to complete the requirements for a Linguistics Minor field, students must successfully complete their program requirements and obtain credit in at least four full-course equivalents from the courses listed below.

Linguistics 247a/b, 248a/b, 237a/b, 243F/G, 249F/G, 287F/G, 288a/b, 295, 335F/G, 337F/G, 397a/b, 398a/b, 406F/G, 477a/b, 478a/b

Some courses have prerequisites and/or antirequisites. Either Linguistics 027a/b or Linguistics 288a/b is required for any of Linguistics 247a/b, 248a/b, 237a/b, 243a/b, 249a/b, 335F/G or 337F/G, and Linguistics 295 is required for Linguistics 397a/b or 398a/b. Some courses have additional prerequisites and/or antirequisites. French and Spanish courses are taught in those languages and have language (as well as other) prerequisites. It is the responsibility of students to ensure they have obtained the prerequisites or special permissions for the courses they wish to take as part of the Linguistics Minor field.

In addition to the courses listed above, students doing the minor program may be interested in taking one or more of the courses listed below under "Approved Courses in Linguistics". Such courses, however, normally are not used to fulfill the requirements specified above for the minor.

COMBINED HONORS PROGRAM IN LINGUISTICS

Approved Combinations: Anthropology, Classical Studies, Comparative Literature and Civilization, English, Film Studies, French, German, Greek, History, Latin, Media, Information and Technoculture, Philosophy, Political Science, Religious Studies, Russian, Sociology, Spanish, Women's Studies or Visual Arts.

For "Linguistics and Psychology", see below.

Admission Requirements

First year program in Arts or Social Science with three courses as principal courses including Linguistics 027a/b. The principal courses must include those specified as first year requirements in each of the subjects in the combined honors program. Students are encouraged to register for a French language course at their level of competence and to continue to at least the 020E/021 level in order to be able to take advantage in later years of linguistics offerings taught in French. Students who have not taken Linguistics 027a/b in their first year should take Linguistics 288a/b.

Students selecting a combined honors program require the written permission of i) the Department or unit being combined with Linguistics and ii) one of the Co-Directors of the Linguistics program. Such students will be registered in the Faculty that houses the participating Department and adjudication will be done by the participating Department and the co-directors of the Program in Linguistics.

Progression

Progression requirements for the Combined Honors Program in Linguistics are the same as those for all other honors programs. See Honors Programs in the Programs/Progression section.

Second, Third and Fourth Years

Six Honors Linguistics courses including:
* Linguistics 247a/b, 248a/b, 335F/G, 337F/G

* Two full course equivalents from the Arts and Social Science Courses listed below under Approved Courses in Linguistics.

Some courses have prerequisites and/or antirequisites. Either Linguistics 027a/b or Linguistics 288a/b is required for any of Linguistics 247a/b, 248a/b, 237a/b, 243a/b, 249a/b, 335F/G or 337F/G, and Linguistics 295 is required for Linguistics 397a/b or 398a/b. Some courses have additional prerequisites and/or antirequisites. French and Spanish courses are taught in those languages and have language (as well as other) prerequisites. It is the responsibility of students to ensure they have obtained the prerequisites or special permissions for the courses they wish to take as part of the Linguistics Minor field.

For the requirements of the other Departments in the combined honors program, see the Combined Honors Programs section of this Calendar.

Approved Courses in Linguistics

Anthropology 245F/G, 411F, 412G, English 211, 212, French 432a/b, 498F/G, Philosophy 222a/b, 225F/G, 322a/b, 323b, 451, 455E, Political Science 411F, 412G, Psychology 234a/b, Russian 498a, 499b, Spanish 401

Note: With the permission of a Co-Director, courses other than those listed may be counted towards fulfillment of program requirements.

HONORS LINGUISTICS AND PSYCHOLOGY

Admission Requirements

First year program with Linguistics 027a/b, a 020-level Psychology course and any other three full-course equivalents as principal courses. Since Psychology 281 (Statistics) is a required course in the Linguistics and Psychology program, students selecting this program are advised to complete the Mathematics prerequisite for Psychology in first year.

One full-course in mathematics is required. To fulfill the mathematics requirement, you must complete a full-course equivalent by taking Mathematics 030 or 031 (Mathematics 031 is preferred) or the former Mathematics 027, the former Applied Mathematics 020, or 023a/b plus 024a/b, or by taking two half-courses from among the following courses: Mathematics 012a/b or 017a/b, Mathematics 028a/b, Calculus 050a/b, 051a/b, 081a/b, , Linear Algebra 040a/b, Statistical Sciences 024a/b. If either Mathematics 012a/b or 017a/b is selected, then either Statistical Sciences 024a/b or Mathematics 028a/b must be taken. The combination of Statistical Sciences 024a/b and Mathematics 028a/b is strongly recommended.

Note: Students registered at an Affiliated College who plan to complete an honors degree in Linguistics and Psychology should consult with a Psychology Academic Counsellor prior to registering in this program.

Program

After the first year, this program requires six Honors Linguistics courses, seven Honors Psychology courses, and two options. Some of the options may be additional Linguistics and Psychology courses. All Honors Linguistics and Honors Psychology courses taken in any year will be considered principal courses.

The following Linguistics courses must be included among the principal courses: 247a, 248b, 249F/G, 237a/b, 337F/G.

Second Year

Required Courses

Linguistics 247a and 248b, One half-course in Linguistics at the 200-level, Psychology 280E, Psychology 281

One 200-level half-course in Psychology from the 200-279 series

Third Year

Required Courses

Linguistics 337G
Three half-courses in Linguistics at the 200- or 300-level to include Linguistics 237a/b, 248b and 249F/G if not taken in second year
Two half-courses in Psychology including at least one from the 200-239 series and one from the 240-279 series
Two half-courses in Research from Psychology 302F/G or 306F/G; 317F/G; 322F/G; 336F/G or387F/G; 356F/G; 361F/G; 370F/G; 380F/G; 382F/G

Fourth Year

Required Courses

Two full-course equivalents in Linguistics at the 200-, 300- or 400-level
Psychology 385F/G (may be taken in either third or fourth year)
One full-course equivalent in Psychology at the 300- or 400-level; Psychology 485E

Background:

The Program in Linguistics is designed to meet the needs of students who wish to combine linguistics with the study of another subject in a formal way. It will provide a rational structure to replace the former Anthropology (Linguistics Specialization).

Linguistics, with its 澳门六合彩开奖预测 roots in the works of the philosophers of ancient Greece came in the 19th century to be regarded as an exemplar of the application of the scientific method to human society. It was, and still is, a discipline at once humanistic and scientific. It is therefore especially appropriate that there be a cooperative Arts and Social Science program in linguistics. The program will serve the needs of students wishing to combine linguistics with the study of specific languages, philosophy, psychology, anthropology or other disciplines.

2. Concurrent Degree Program: Bachelor of Arts in Honors Kinesiology and Bachelor of Laws

Recommended: That a concurrent degree program leading to a Bachelor of Arts in Honors Kinesiology and a Bachelor of Laws be introduced in the Faculty of Health Sciences and the Faculty of Law, effective September 1, 2000.

NEW CALENDAR COPY

Concurrent Bachelor of Arts in Honors Kinesiology and Bachelor of Laws

Admission Requirements

The minimum requirements for admission are:

i) Complete first year with an overall average of 80%, with no less than an 80% in Kinesiology 021
ii) complete second year with an overall average minimum average of 80%, and
iii) achieve an LSAT score of 156 or above.

Meeting the minimum admission requirements does not guarantee a position in the program.

Application Information

Students applying to this program must submit a letter of intent to the Director of the School of Kinesiology by September 30^th of the applicant's second year in Kinesiology. A separate application must also be submitted to the Faculty of Law in accordance with the submission deadlines advertised in The University of 澳门六合彩开奖预测 Ontario academic calendar.

Program Requirements

The program will take six academic years to complete. In years one and two, students will be registered in the School of Kinesiology, Faculty of Health Sciences and will follow the Kinesiology curriculum outlined above. Students will register in the Faculty of Law in year three and will take the curriculum outlined above. In years four, five and six, students will be registered in both the School of Kinesiology, Faculty of Health Sciences, and the Faculty of Law and will take an approved mix of Kinesiology and Law courses as outlined above. Students are required to take 48 credit weights of upper-year Law School courses, including the core curriculum and the other mandatory requirements of the Law Program. Upon completion of the program students will receive both an Honors BA in Kinesiology and an LLB.

Students registered in the concurrent program are expected to abide by all guidelines associated with each of the individual programs.

Program

First Year

Kinesiology 021 plus four other first year courses.

Second Year

Kinesiology 200a, 201b, 222a/b, 230a/b, 241a/b, 298a/b
Two full-course equivalent non-Kinesiology electives

Third Year

Law 407, 410, 412, 425, 430, 477

Fourth, Fifth, Sixth Years

By the end of the program, students must have completed the following requirements:

Law 401a/b, 403a/b, 414a/b, 438a/b, 446a/b, 476a/b
Law electives equalling at least 24 credit weights. One of these courses must have an essay requirement of at least two credit weights.
Kinesiology 250a/b, 280a/b, 263F/G, 336a/b, 390a/b, 398a/b, 459a/b, 473a/b

One full course equivalent from:
Kinesiology 288a/b, 358a/b, 468a/b, 472a/b, 491a, 492b, 493a/b
One senior full course equivalent elective offered outside of the School of Kinesiology and the Faculty of Law.

Progression Standards

Once admitted to the concurrent program, students would be required to maintain a 75% or B average in every year of the program.

Failure to Meet Progression Requirements

A student who fails to meet these progression requirements would be required to withdraw from the concurrent program. However, if that student has met the progression requirements of either the Kinesiology or Law program, he or she will be allowed to proceed to the next year of that program. In order to graduate a student who is withdrawn from the concurrent program must complete all the degree requirements of the program in which he or she is registered.

Dean's Honors List

Students in the concurrent program are considered for the Dean's Honor List in the Faculty in which they are enrolled. In years four, five, and six, students must meet the standards of both the Faculty of Health Sciences and the Faculty of Law in order to be on the Dean's Honor List.

Graduation with Distinction

Students in the concurrent program must meet the conditions of both the Faculty of Health Sciences and the Faculty of Law in order to graduate with distinction.

Fees

In year one and two, students will pay the prevailing tuition levels to the Faculty of Health Sciences. In year three, students will pay the prevailing tuition to the Faculty of Law. When enroled in years four, five, and six of the concurrent program, students will pay one half of the prevailing tuition to the Faculty of Health Sciences and one half of the prevailing tuition to the Faculty of Law.

Exchange Programs

Students enrolled in the concurrent program may be eligible in the fifth year for exchange programs offered within either faculty provided that both program Directors approve.

Background:

The concurrent BA(KIN)/LLB program would allow students to focus their undergraduate education in a field that they believe would be directly relevant to their subsequent careers. It also reduces the time and financial cost of obtaining the two degrees. This concurrent program should attract students to the School of Kinesiology in the Faculty of Health Sciences and to the Faculty of Law. The eligibility requirements are designed to attract applicants with strong academic qualifications.

The School of Kinesiology in the Faculty of Health Sciences and the Faculty of Law believe there is a demand in society for university graduates who pursue professional careers in many sport related occupations. Few areas of sport remain untouched by the law. The proposed program will meet the need by insuring that graduates have a strong background in appropriate sport related courses and pertinent courses in law.

The Kinesiology courses are: Kinesiology 021: A Wellness/Lifestyle Analysis; 200a: Motor Performance Skills; 201b Motor Performance Skills; 222a/b: Systemic Approach to Body Function; 230a/b: Introductory Exercise Physiology; 241a/b: Biomechanics; 250a/b: Social Foundations of Sport and Physical Activity; 263F/G: Canadian Sport History; 280a/b: Introduction to Psycho-Motor Behaviour; 288a/b: Introduction to Sport Psychology; 298a/b: Introduction to Sport Management: Macro Perspectives; 336a/b: An Introduction to Athletic Injuries; 358a/b: Sport and Culture; 390a/b: Philosophy of Sport; 398a/b: Sport Management: Micro Perspectives; 459a/b: Sport and the Law; 468a/b: Social Issues in Sport; 472a/b: Nutrition and Exercise; 473a/b: Comparative and International Sport and Physical Education; 491a: Independent Study or Field Experience; 492b: Independent Study or Field Experience; 493a/b: Morality and Sport.

The Law courses are: Law 401a/b: Administrative Law; 403a/b: Company Law; 407: Constitutional; 410: Contracts; 412: Criminal; 414a/b: Evidence; 425: Property; 430: Torts; 438a/b: Income Tax; 446a/b: Civil Procedure; 476a/b: Trusts; 477: Introduction to Legal Theory.

3. King's College: Advanced Master of Divinity Program at St. Peter's Seminary

Recommended: That effective September 1, 2000, an Advanced Master of Divinity degree be introduced at St. Peter's Seminary.

Background:

The basic Master of Divinity degree currently offered by St. Peter's consists of thirty half courses plus field education, or six full-time semesters of study. While continuing to offer this basic degree, St. Peter's seeks also to offer a Advanced Master of Divinity degree that would consist of thirty-five half-courses plus field education, or seven semesters of full-time study. This degree would be oriented primarily toward candidates for ordination to the Catholic priesthood, who are required, after completion of the basic MDiv, to return to the seminary for additional pastoral and educational courses to meet professional and formational requirements for ordination. The Advanced MDiv would allow the seminary to enhance the academic character of the program for these students. This Advanced degree would also be open for lay students to pursue if they wish to complete seven semesters of full-time study toward an enhanced MDiv.

The Advanced degree would require no significant additional resources in terms of faculty, space, cost, or library holdings.

The prerequisites for the Advanced MDiv would be the same as those for the basic degree. The structure of the programs will be the same in regard to the first three years of study. The Advanced MDiv will entail the introduction of three new courses in the final year of the program (Ecumenism, Theological Integration, and Missiology and Evangelization) as well as more rigorous academic demands in two existing courses (New Testament Studies and Theology of Sacramental Healing). A comprehensive examination will be included in the Theological Integration course to assist students in appropriating in a unified way the various theological disciplines they have studied throughout the program.

The Association of Theological Schools has acknowledged St. Peter's intention to add this enhanced degree to its program offerings; they do not require formal approval by their accreditation committee for this change.

Calendar copy for the Advanced Master of Divinity Program is outlined in Appendix 1.

4. King's College: Master of Theological Studies at St. Peter's Seminary

Recommended: That effective September 1, 2000, a Master of Theological Studies program be introduced at St. Peter's Seminary.

Background:

A Master of Theological Studies would meet educational needs not currently being met by the Master of Divinity program. An MTS program would provide a post-baccalaureate, introductory theological degree for those seeking greater knowledge of the Catholic theological tradition for its own sake rather than for the sake of pursuing a career in pastoral ministry. An MTS program would thus allow St. Peter's to benefit a wider range of students. In accordance with the recent revisions of the Affiliation Agreement, it would be clearly spelled out in the seminary's calendar that the MTS is not recognized as a graduate degree by the OCGS. The term "Master" is used in accordance with the practice of the seminary's accrediting body, the Association of Theological Schools.

This program would require no significant additional commitment of resources. The course offerings are part of the theology and philosophy programs already offered. One faculty member will need to act as an academic advisor for MTS students and coordinator for the program; as St. Peter's Seminary does not anticipate large numbers for this program, this will not be an undue administrative burden.

The library resources at St. Peter's, combined with the additional library resources available to seminary students at King's College, Huron College, Brescia College, and The University of 澳门六合彩开奖预测 Ontario will be more than adequate for the research needs of students in an MTS program.

Funds in the form of bursaries currently available to MDiv students would be available to MTS students. The seminary has raised significant funds for student bursaries through its participation in the Ontario government's Ontario Student Opportunity Trust Fund program.

Entrance requirements would include a Bachelor's degree with a B average, two letters of reference, and an interview. Since some philosophical background is essential for studying Catholic theology at this level, a full year, two-semester course in philosophy designed to help prepare the students for the study of theology would be required; this course could be taken concurrently with theology courses.

The program would be the equivalent of two years of full-time study. Students would be required to take sixteen one-semester courses. Twelve of these (the ten non-pastoral courses from the first year of the theological curriculum plus the two-semester course in philosophy) would be required. Four additional elective courses (from the upper-level years of the theology program) would be selected in consultation with the academic advisor. A forty- to fifty-page thesis directed by an appropriate member of the faculty would also be required. The requirements for the MTS degree thus would be roughly the equivalent of three terms of course work and one term in which to complete the thesis if pursued on a full-time basis.

The Association of Theological Schools has granted approval for St. Peter's to offer this program effective in September of 2000.

Calendar copy for the Master of Theological Studies program is outlined in Appendix 1.

2. Dates for Spring 2002 (Correction to the Structure of the Academic Year Dates)

At the last meeting of Senate, the proposal for the revision of the structure of the academic year was approved.

The proposed schedule that was attached as Appendix 1 to Exhibit III had a number of errors in 2001-02. Most notably, there was an incorrect reference to classes not being scheduled on the first two days of Passover in 2002. To date, the University has cancelled classes on religious holidays only in cases where they were also statutory holidays: that policy has not changed.

In 1989, Senate approved Guidelines for Implementation of the Policy on Accommodations for Religious Holidays (S.89-191) which state,

"No examinations are to be scheduled on the first two days of Passover unless the avoidance of those dates would extend the final examination period beyond the end of April. In years where examinations are scheduled on the first two days of Passover, affected students are required to request accommodation and arrange with their instructor(s) and/or Dean for an alternative examination."

The schedule that results from the revised policy on the Structure of the Academic Year shows that no examinations have been scheduled during the first two days of Passover.

The revised schedule for academic years through 2000-2005 follows. The revisions are highlighted.

Policy on the Structure of the Academic Year

1. Each term will be 60 teaching days.
2. Lectures will begin on a Monday in each term.
3. There will be at least one study day between the end of classes and beginning of exams.
4. The final examination period will be 12 days in the first term and at least 15 days in the second term, but preferably 16 or 17.
5. No examinations are to be scheduled on Good Friday or on the first two days of Passover.
6. The last day of examinations will be not later than April 30 in second term.
7. Conference Week will be scheduled following the first six weeks in second term.

These Guidelines apply only to those faculties, schools and colleges which operate on a 24-week teaching term, i.e., they do not apply to the Faculties of Education, Graduate Studies, Law, Medicine & Dentistry or the Ivey School of Business.

* In order to ensure that there are 12 class sessions for each day of the week for the term (60 days), this day will be used to make up for the Friday class not held on Good Friday.
