The minor is administered by an interdisciplinary Gerontology Committee comprised of faculty members with teaching, research, service, and other interests in the field of aging. The objectives of the gerontology minor are to promote a better understanding of the aging process, a greater awareness of major issues regarding aging, and an increased insight into the problems of older adults. This minor is especially appropriate for students interested in working with older persons or pursuing graduate degrees in gerontology and related fields. For information about the Gerontology Program, contact the program coordinator.

1843 COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES HISTORY Wiekamp Hall 3248 (574) 520-4491 www.iusb.edu/~sbhist Associate Professors: Froysland, Nashel, O’Connor (Chairperson), Shlapentokh, Tetzlaff Assistant Professors: Nirei, Willig, Zwicker Faculty Emeriti: Furlong, Lamon, Marti, Scherer, Schreiber, Tull The study of history encompasses all recorded expressions of human activity from the earliest times to the present. In history classes, students analyze historical data, search for patterns and relationships, and discover the meaning of the past and its relationship to the modern world. History is the foundation of a liberal arts education in that it introduces students to their own culture and to world cultures. Ultimately, studying history encourages students to gain an understanding of themselves and their world while becoming informed and engaged citizens. The Department of History faculty members are committed to teaching, research, and community outreach. The Department of History has a close partnership with the Civil Rights Heritage Center, which uses local and national history to promote social change through individual responsibility. BACHELOR OF ARTS IN HISTORY (All courses are 3 credit hours, unless otherwise designated.) Students earning the Bachelor of Arts in history degree must complete the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences requirements and fulfill the following concentration requirements: History majors must earn at least 30 credit hours in history courses. These should include 6 credit hours at the 100-level; but all other history courses must be at the 200-level or above, including 6 credit hours of American history, 6 credit hours of European history, 6 credit hours in other areas such as Latin American or Asian history. As soon as possible after declaring a major in history, students should enroll in HIST-H 217 The Nature of History. Because HIST-J 495 Proseminar for History Majors is the capstone of the major program, no history major is allowed to take it without demonstrating thorough preparation. That is done by submitting a portfolio of written work to the department chairperson at least 60 days before the seminar begins. A portfolio is a collection of written materials that documents a student’s individual progress through the history major. It encourages students to reflect critically on their course work and experiences as history majors as they get ready to take HIST-J 495 Proseminar for History Majors. Contents of the portfolio: • Formal job resume • Five essays (students should include the original copies with the course instructor’s comments and grade) • Two research papers that include systematic documentation • Three essay examinations • Self-analysis essay (What do the materials included in my portfolio say about my learning experience as a history major?) No more than three items in any portfolio may come from any one course. WORLD LANGUAGES Students are encouraged to continue their world languages study beyond the two years required by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Graduate schools generally require mastery of one world language for the
