Academic Information
Academic information is available from many sources. Each course and each academic program (major, minor, concentration, etc.) that is sponsored by an academic department has a chairperson whose office is listed in a number of University publications. Questions concerning a course should be addressed to the instructor. Those questions concerning academic programs should be addressed to your academic advisor or the chairperson of the sponsoring department. Additional academic information may be sought from the Academic Deans’ Office, BA 268, or the Office of the Provost, FH 214.
You should review the University catalog by accessing it on the SMSU homepage. The academic programs, liberal arts core requirements, and general academic information regarding grading, academic standing, the honors program, etc., are found in the catalog. Selected regulations have been reprinted here for your convenience.
