This Catalog provides general information only and does not constitute a contract or any
form of agreement between Eureka College and any person(s). The programs, policies
and regulations contained herein are subject to addition, modification and/or deletion
without prior notice and the College specifically reserves the right to make whatever
changes, which Eureka College in its sole discretion may deem appropriate at any time.
The College policy is, however, to attempt to notify those affected by changes which are
planned in advance, in order to foster possible adjustment without undue inconvenience.
Toward this end, the College generally attempts to limit substantial changes to those
made effective at the beginning of an academic year. Students and others interested in
such matters are encouraged to consult their faculty advisors or appropriate College
officers as to specific contents of this Catalog, including particular degree requirements.
The faculty and staff of Eureka College do not stand in loco parentis (in the place of a
parent) to its students. We accept the state and federal policy that the women and men
who attend Eureka are fully functioning adults. Within our tradition and framework, we
will continue to provide a caring environment in all areas of academic and social life.
Eureka College follows all procedures as required by the Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA).
In keeping with the Christian Church’s (Disciples of Christ) mission of “concern for a
better world . . . implemented in an educational community dedicated to the welfare of
humanity,” and with its call for “a society which proclaims and honors the rights of all
persons,” no one shall be denied admission to any College course or program, nor denied
housing, employment or promotion, nor the opportunity to study or work at Eureka
College because of race, national origin, gender, creed, sexual orientation, age, marital
