The School of Education has a standard policy that affects student teaching and educational placement. The central characteristic of discrimination rests in its denial of an objective judgment of individual worth by assigning, deliberately or unintentionally, a stereotyped status to an individual. It thus introduces criteria that are not relevant to confirmable professional judgment of the quality of an individual s performance. Any complaint related to this policy should be called to the attention of the Assistant Dean for Student Services. The School of Education requires a minimum of 124 credit hours to qualify for graduation, determined by specific degree requirements.
