Message from the President

To Our Students:

Attending Shawnee State University will be one of the most exciting intellectual experiences of your life. How to make the most of it? Let the 2007-09 Catalog serve as a guide, helping you design an academic program that works best for you.

The Catalog will help you make decisions about what fields interest you and what courses you should select. Keep in mind that the courses you take complement one another and combine into a body of knowledge that not only prepares you for the rigors of a profession but upon which you will rely for the rest of your life.

As you continue your university education, keep the Catalog handy—it is more than just a resource to help kick off your studies. The Catalog offers much valuable information that will help you maximize your time here at Shawnee State. All students who attend Shawnee State accept the challenge of striving for personal excellence. They do so in a supportive academic environment, guided by top-flight faculty members who are dedicated to the mission of teaching their students.

I wish you the very best as you pursue a university education worthy of your greatest aspirations.

Rita Rice Morris, Ph.D.
President
